Åbolands Teaterskola
Logo for a swedish theatre school for kids. The name translates as follows "Åboland" is the name of the county and "Teaterskola" means theatre school.
Not much intructions from the client. They want some sort of an emblem and that the school theme comes across.
Been working on a concept that brings out the theatre part, based on the theatre masks you usually see with theatre related things.
Gonna do some more school based scetches and work on an emblem.
Any feedback is much appreciated.

If the school is for kids, these masks seem a little too scary!

That's a good point riccard. I like the direction of the first one as it's starting to look like sort of a badge/crest, but maybe soften the look of it a bit and make it a little more "kid friendly".

yeah, good point. Gonna do some other concepts as well, client liked the direction of the two on the left. Theatre masks are a little too common though. Updates to come...

Hello,
Got a new version for this project.
Still sticking to the mask. A split mask that is supposed to represent the student outside the school (black side) and the student inside the school (orange side). I've put a house shape as nose and this is supposed to represent the school.
Tried using their colour suggestions as well, black and orange.
Feedback appreciated.

I still find it less playful than it would deserve.
About the house/school inside the mask, I would rather try to make a school-shaped mask.

in fact...it's kinda creepy.

Creepy, yes.....but, the first thing I noticed was underpants. See it? The outline of the mouth is a pair of "tighty-whiteys" and the nose is a belt buckle (wrestler-style!)
Now, I can't see anything else. Sorry.

And the eyes are boxing gloves.
I like the type though :)

Now I'm seeing Lisa Simpson, with a skin pigment disorder, eating panties :)
Seriously though, Peter. Don't get discouraged! Can't you post some more renderings or other ideas?
Lycka till!

Now all I can see is the underpants too :)
I think the whole mask idea is really interesting, just needs a bit of massaging to get it to a more friendly state.

Haha, the client also noticed the Simpsons connection. Pretty funny.
Yeah gonna scrap this version and do a new one. Gonna stick with the type and concept overall for now. Had some ideas on dance/body movement but it's hard to make not look like a dance school. They dp incorporate that stuff in their education though so it might be a way to go.
Will post something new next week
Thanks for the feedback so far.
