Logo Design Brief
Logo required for new business called "Viva Voce Speech Arts Studio" with the tag line, "Where the Voice Comes Alive".
Viva Voce is latin for “the living voice.” My passion and my work is focused on bringing out people’s unique voice, and making it work for them. I enable people to become more articulate, confident, and expressive speakers. I teach Speech Arts to young people and Presentation Skills to adults. Speech Arts involves recitation of poems, prose and monologues using effective speaking techniques.
I’d like the logo to embody the idea of the living voice. A picture or abstract image would be nice. Original colour ideas were purple and/or bright royal blue, but I am fully open to any colour scheme. Logo should translate well to black and white, and should also be fully legible when shrunk down to fit on a business card.
Target market is three fold: parents in West and North Vancouver who seek success for their children, corporate clients in downtown Vancouver who want the edge in the business room, and university students (graduate level and above) who want help with presentations at conferences.
The final design should reflect a professional, enlivened, and personable business.
Thanks for your submissions!
Updates
Thanks to all submissions so far! I have a couple more images in my mind that you may wish to include:
- an eternity symbol (like a figure 8 on it's side) - representing skills that will last for LIFE
