Digital Story Makers

Describe your company and organization and target audience

Digital stories are short videos that combine narration, still and moving images, sound effects, and music to tell a compelling story. At Digital Story Makers, we teach people to make their own digital stories and we also create digital stories for those who don't have the time or technical know-how to make them on their own. Digital stories are personal stories, but they often connect to wider issues of health, family, social justice, etc. Web site: www.digitalstorymakers.com

The target audience consists of 1) organizations (mainly non-profits) that want to enhance their digital presence through short, storytelling video; 2) educational institutions that want to enhance their curriculum with digital storytelling; 3) individuals who have a story to tell but don't have to skills or desire to make it themselves.

The design should have the following

It should have the name of the business: Digital Story Makers

Some possible themes: intersection of technology and creativity; creative journey; "see, hear, tell"; the whole is greater than the sum of the parts (the building blocks of digital stories are words, images, and sound).

Some key words from Web site: Remember; Connect; Inform; Empower

This logo will be used for

• Online (Website, facebook etc.)
• Print (business cards, letterheads, brochures etc.)

This design should not have this in the entries

I tried a logo with "jigsaw puzzle pieces" clip art and it didn't work. Too cliche.

I don't care for standard images of film strips, microphones, cameras, etc. I'd rather the logo be more conceptual than literal.

What style of logo would you like?

Colors to use in the design

I would love to have two or more of the following colors in the logo:
80ced7; 806678; c7d3bf; ffc9b5
