Hi there! I'm an audio designer working in video games. I compose music, design sound, implement audio systems, and provide vision and direction to audio teams in order to help bring game worlds to life.
My new website is in need of a logo, which I would like to communicate creativity, maturity, trust, elegant simplicity, and professionalism.
For inspiration, I've attached some logos to this brief:
- Composer Austin Wintory (https://www.austinwintory.com/) and game audio designer Bas Bertrand (https://www.basbertrand.com/) cleverly incorporate their initials in an audio waveform in their logo. I'd very much like a similar relationship between my initials and audio, though I realize the 'S' and 'Z' might not be quite suited for that.
- The Starfield logo is wonderfully symmetrical and uses the 'T' and 'L' to form the shape of a planet - very fitting for a game about space exploration!
- The Epoch logo is taken from an excellent sci-fi short film by Ash Thorp (https://vimeo.com/198811503), and I've always admired it for its elegant simplicity.
There's also a video that shows my website's current design. The logo is going to be featured right at the top of the page.
This is my first time on DesignCrowd and I'm excited to see what you come up with. Thank you very much!

- Would be great to have my initials ('S' and 'Z') incorporated in something related with audio, like in Austin Wintory's and Bas Bertrand's logos.
Should not have
- My logo should not have characters like KFC or Michelin.
