Brief:

Name: Strella Studios

Why do you want a new logo? What do you want your new logo to accomplish? This question helps to understand the problem: My current logo does not properly reflect the purpose of
the app

Who are your main competitors?: Google Keyboard

Who Are Your Main Competitors 3: Minuum

How are you different from your competitors? (What about your company makes you unique): The goal of the app is to completely redesign typing on a mobile/touchscreen device. Since the QWERTY layout seems to work best for physical keyboards but not so well for touch.

What product(s) or service(s) do your business provide?: Mobile Application

What’s the age range of your target customer base?:
What I found is that people that seem to embrace change or give it a try seem to be the ones who use this the most. Additionally, people who tend to switch between multiple languages also like the app.

Do you have a tag line? If so, would you like it stated along side your logo?:
Currently s "Smart Design for Smart Typing" but it might change, I don't believe it should be stated in an Android icon since they are small

Do you have any specific imagery in mind for your logo?:
I'd like for it to resemble an Keyboard while still standing out and looking different

Do you have any color preferences, or existing brand colors?:
Current brand color is gray, but I want to move away from that to a mute blue or an aqua. But you can chose what color you
think is best and I'd be willing to re brand to that color. Since it's likely to be more vibrant than gray. Red is also a good option

Do you have any colors that you do not wish to use?:
No all colors are fine. Although the Material guidelines have a specific pallete: https://material.google.com/style/color.html#color-color-palette Sticking to this palette is preferred but not required

What feeling or message do you want your logo to convey to those who view it?:
That this is a keyboard and it's a different type of keyboard

Where will you logo be used? Where will it primarily be used?:
Primarily on the Play Store and as the Android app icon. Additionally, in a landing page, in the future.

What’s your preferred deadline, time frame or exact date of completion?:
 10/20/2016

Your design preference likes/dislikes or expectations:
Material Design, as detailed: https://material.google.com/style/icons.html but I'm not too strict about these guidelines

Social Networking

Dionysia

Mobile social network startup

Brief:

We are a social media start-up company. The name "Dionysia" evolves from "Dionysus", the ancient Greek god of harvest, winemaking, drinking, and madness, as our first app currently under development is for social networking related to young people's nightlife.Please note that this logo is for our company, not for our mobile application software. The logo may later appear on our website, business cards, and other PR platform. We would like the logo to look professional, which reflects our solid financial foundation and development capability.Besides the requirement above, you may have full creative control.

1- Why do you want a new logo? What do you want your new logo to accomplish? This question helps to understand the problem. A: To project an image to our vendors/ partners as a reliable, energetic, and innovative company.

5- Are there any inspiring visuals associated with your business? A: Not particularly. Yes, our apps will be heavily suggestive of the drinking/bar culture. But the company should take a more generous and serious stance.

7- What’s the age range of your target customer base? A: We aim toward the vendors. 40-60.

8- Do you have a tag line? If so, would you like it stated along side your logo? A: No tagline.

9- Do you have any specific imagery in mind for your logo? A: Something similar to Merrill Lynch http://bit.ly/1sbiX5I or, Accenture http://bit.ly/1rSmKE4

10- Do you have any color preferences, or existing brand colors? A: not really.

11- Do you have any colors that you do not wish to use? A: no.

RedVelvet.css is an open-sourced CSS animation library made available to the public free of charge. It is aimed for the more advanced css animation users who don't want to write their own animations. 

Using RedVelvet.css along with RedVelvet.js you can run an animation, replace the contents of the div, and then run the end animation; all done programmatically. Compared to other css animation libraries you are not constrained with RedVelvet, if you can imagine an animation you can make it with RedVelvet.
