logo for a hackathon

This repo contains logo design ideas and digital sketches for a high school hackathon project.

The project they're working on is called 'BU' ( be you ) an app that uses natural language analysis to help you understand how you're framed in social media. The team cleverly used the letters b and u together to form a logo ...

Here are the original sketches of the logo idea ...

[1] faithful to original sketch 1

First Cut

[2] faithful to original sketch 2

Second Cut

[3] bringing the 'u' to the front

Third Cut

[4] trying a smaller 'b' within the 'u'

Forth Cut

[5] rotating the 'u' 45 degrees - to break out a 'rock and roll' hand gesture

Fifth Cut

[6] tilting the b 22.5 degrees and the 'u' 45 degrees - to emphasize the 'rock and roll' hand gesture

Sixth Cut

[7] uniform color for version 6 - the shape feels strong enough to carry the letters and gesture

Seventh Cut

--

I like version seven espcially because there is symmetry with the left and and right angled lines anchored in the circle. It also offers two interpretations of 'b' and 'u' hidden inside.

Also - this is Cleveland, home of the Rock and Roll hall of fame, so it is really appropriate.
