Logo Design Contest Rules
In a design contest, designers from all over the world can pitch multiple ideas for a logo. I would give feedback and in the end select the perfect logo from the finalists.
From colors to distinctiveness and scalability, artists can help create my logo which should be unique and differentiate Pushing Back the Darkness from other companies.
I don’t need to represent every aspect of my brand within the logo itself. The bigger branding campaign, collateral, messaging, advertising, that can all be done as part of the system. The logo should be as refined, simple, clean, minimal as possible.
Author Laura Aranda and Pushing Back the Darkness novel series gives participants the opportunity to design a winning Logo for Pushing Back the Darkness book series. By participating in the contest, the graphic artist accepts and agrees to comply with the official rules.
