Industry: Miscellaneous
Things to communicate through the design
1. Heritage movies & image preservation
2. Smart, hip, stylish yet traditional and refined - clean, sleek
3. The best of the old with the technology of now (History with a forward feel)
The target audience
Our target audience is Wall Street Journal/Forbes/New Yorker magazine affluent and high-net-worth owners of established family businesses, so sophistication is key. We deal with captains of industry, finance & fashion. We take some mid-priced accounts, but want the perception to be of refined heritage preservation. These biographies are multi-month-long projects.
We like these fonts, colors and style
Since we serve families, individuals & companies we are trying to say something that combines all of them with a modern sense of personalized film/cinematography. Our specialty is combining researched images, graphics, footage & music to create Emmy Award-winning movies. (We all worked at the Discovery & History Channels).
We like Raymond Loewy-styled modern-retro refinement. Sleek and sophisticated. Smart and prestigious but not too stodgy. Hip with a nod to the past. Evocative of affluence. Style & glamour. Have considered Casablanca Font. (http://new.myfonts.com/search/retro/fonts/)
Contemporary palettes and detailed design elements are attractive. See

Not loving orange. Not too cold, either. Not TOO modern or bizarre. No video cameras or obvious film elements. "Play" button is a modern icon, perhaps, but used discreetly.
Would like an icon & a text treatment (together &/or stand-alone) Should be legible small.
