Faith Conservatory of the Fine Arts Logo Design Contest
Name On Logo: Faith Conservatory of the Fine Arts
Our Slogan
No Slogan
What we do
We are a private Lutheran High School in Las Vegas, NV (USA.) We are the largest Lutheran High School in the USA and we have an EXCEPTIONAL Fine Arts program (including the following disciplines: DANCE, THEATRICAL ARTS, MUSIC and VISUAL ARTS.)

Faith Conservatory of the Fine Arts is a new mission for the school (and structured as an inter-disciplinary, advanced level program that will offer high school students MAJORS and special opportunities to master their fine arts crafts so that they may side-step into the competitive University setting after graduation.

We want to be perceived as "cutting edge", "BRAND NEW, and the best FINE ARTS option in the state of Nevada." We also want to make sure that the words FAITH and CONSERVATORY are the primary focus with the words "of the Fine Arts" as secondary text.

PLEASE NOTE: the launch of a Conservatory for the Fine Arts at our school is BIG BIG news. It will effect the entire city and state. We're looking for a logo that makes an IMPRESSION....but is also something that will have LONGEVITY. (Not too "promotional." We want to use this logo for the next 10+ years.)
Industry: Education

Things to communicate through the design
1. The #1 place to go for FINE ARTS
2. The school is NOW the leader is ARTS EDUCATION.
3. Faith-based Fine Arts Conservatory. (Cross present.)

The target audience
We hope to attract those who are making decisions about where to send their kids to school. We're a private school, so we charge tuition...so we need to be competitive. (I don't necessarily want any Vegas references.) Think "BRAND NEW"....and classy, but cutting-edge....and a message of "WE HAVE A LOT TO OFFER."

I'd like to see all disciplines represented: Dance, Theatrical Arts, Music and Visual Arts. (All must be represented EQUALLY.)

Logo should appeal to the following Demographics:
-Adult, Parents of teenagers, community business leaders, High School Industry (but the EXCEPTION to any normal high school...we're high-tech, and cutting-edge, and very up-to-date and trendy.)
-Students: They should be a logo that says to the students "whoa, I wonder what that is all about."
-Wealthy - We are situated in a high-income community.
-PATRONS - We offer amazing, flashy theatrical musicals....thrilling band concerts....moving choir concerts....wonderful art galleries....and high-energy dance recitals. We're ALL ABOUT being the very best that the Fine Arts offers.
-COLLEGE-BOUND KIDS - The is a University-prep Conservatory. Students graduating in the program will have special certification and will hopefully be accepted to top ten, and ivy-league universities.

We like these fonts, colors and style
School colors: MAROON and GOLD.

We have an idea of a COMPASS (like one an explorer might use to "find their way." But WITHOUT north, south, east, west.....instead: the four disciplines: Dance, Drama, Music and Visual Arts.) And instead of a traditional four-stemmed dial in the middle.....a Christian CROSS.

We need to ask the winning designer to provide SEVERAL variations to the design (for ALL situations: Letterhead, Print, Web, Television, Mugs & T-Shirts.....Buttons of "just" the COMPASS.....logos of JUST the words with NO COMPASS.....black and white variations.....grayscale variations.....etc. The artist's willingness to work with us on providing variations is very important to us. (As this is a NEW program we're launching...we want all options.)

We kinda like the idea of CONSERVATORY being "BOLD" and Faith being soft or in script of handwriting....but that's not something that's in stone.

We like it if the words or the compass...or the CROSS in the compass would "shine" like gold....or have a gloss to it.

I attached the SCHOOL'S LOGO for inspiration....the school's THEATRE COMPANY LOGO.....and a LOGO that I threw together for the Conservatory. (That I kinda don't like.... I want something 3-D looking...something with depth and "STAYING POWER.")

Our design will be used on
(Web)  (Print Media)  (Billboards & Signs)  (Television)  (Mugs & Tshirts)
