Need opinions on this logo

[Chazlene]

but I'm guessing this is some form of news venture?

Umm no it's for a management company, mainly doing band management... the clue's in the name, so it's not necessarily trying to represent itself through a familiar appearance. If anything a band management website to me should look more radical and eye-catching, it's just the client wants to keep it fairly simply with only a few colours.

News Speak sounds like a news venture to me. Though management doesn't. Sounds a bit conflicted. Anyway, I've gone off the center text now I've been looking at it. Especially the bottom part, it looks cluttered and messy.

Other than management, name gives no hint that it's anything to do with band management imo.

Newspeak: "deliberately ambiguous and contradictory language use to mislead and manipulate the public"

So managing those that aim to manipulate the public? I know the music industry isn't exactly the nicest place, but would a band really want to be associated with that?


But knowing that information, it changes the whole situation. Personally, I'd say none of the above and agree fully with what you say about the site being extremely eye-catching. If I had to choose one though, I'd say the bottom one as the top logo just seems too bland, but if that's the look they're going for (why?) then it may fit in better with the overall site design (at a guess based on the assumption that they are going for a generic site that is)

Back to the topic at hand.

Middle one's text (It's just better imo, you could say that Drop D is an overused tuning in heavy metal, doesn't change the fact it sounds good)
Bottom logo, I like the two toned aspect with the shape around it too.

3rd one looks the best by far

None of you heard of 1984 lol? It's New Speak not News Peak... and don't have a go about that since I'm just doing the design, I didn't come up with the name.

Yeah I think we're gonna go for the bottom logo definitely... I've gone off both these fonts now though... if the logo has rounded edges the font should too, and having a font as simple as they are at the moment doesn't do the logo justice.

Chaz, I asked about synergy, I said about New speak, I knew about 1984, see for yourself.

[Calneon]

Did you like the font in the one I posted?

[Isphera]

Didn't read whole thread, but third logo with second text.

Umm... good for you...?

Did you like the font in the one I posted?

Ah sorry didn't realise it was a different font, yeah I think I like that one, it's not as 'threatening' as the other tall font I used, plus seems slightly curvier, which goes better with the logo. However I think the client and my mate I'm designing this with have both gone off the idea of having a tall font.

[Chalex4]

Definitely third logo, with a different font as you say. Out of all 3 though, I think the Helvetica font looks the best. Good idea to keep looking for another one though.

Maybe try a different language....just putting it out there!

[matinrtez11]

I prefer the last one most.
You can turn the color of the word 'NEWSPEAK' into blue.
