### The Assignment
Personal brand logo for **Greg Jones** — initials **“GJ” or “G”** — to be used across digital, print, apparel, and video.
---
### The Feel (this matters most)
* Commanding
* Forceful
* Precise
* Refined
* Masculine
* Confident without explanation
Think: **high-stakes strategist. Calm authority. Built, not decorated. No softness.**
If someone sees this on a jacket or book cover, the reaction should be:
] *“That person knows exactly who he is.”*
---
### Color Direction
* **Steel / silver / gunmetal** (first choice)
* Gold is acceptable **only if the design earns it**
No bright colors.
The logo should feel like it has **weight and dimension** — forged metal, not flat vector.
---
### Creative Freedom
Explore whatever direction you believe in — letterforms, geometry, negative space, symbolism.
I am **not requesting** a shield, helmet, or any specific icon. If you include a shape or symbol, it should feel **integral**, not applied.
**Surprise me.**
---
### What to Avoid
* Soft, decorative, or “wellness brand” energy
* Thin or delicate linework
* Designs that need explanation
* Mockup tricks — show the design clean
---
### Deliverables
* 2–3 concepts
* 1 revision round on the selected concept
* Final files: PNG (transparent), SVG, dark + light versions
---
### One Note
I’d rather see **one bold idea you believe in** than several safe options.
