Describe your company and organization and target audience

<p>My company is Digital Guerrilla Cinema, LLC. I produce movies and film festivals. I do not want my company included in the logo.</p><p>This is a contest for a logo design for a new film festival in New York State, targeting NYS&nbsp; filmmakers and New York State patrons.</p>

The design should have the following

<p>Logo for a new film festival celebrating films made exclusively in New York State, all genres.&nbsp; In this context, "Empire" does not mean empirical,&nbsp; military, dominance or power - New York State is known as&nbsp; "The Empire State." We want to appeal to&nbsp; New York filmmakers.</p><p> This festival will be held in Ithaca, New York, but it is&nbsp; not an Ithaca film festival, it is a New York State film festival. </p><p>Possible icons/motifs:</p><p>- An outline of New York State</p><p> </p><p><span style="font-size: 0.875rem;">- Ticonderoga Falls in Ithaca</span></p><p>- The Empire State Building</p><p>- An apple</p><p>- A Bluebird</p><p>- Film strip, movie camera, etc.</p><p><br></p><p>Open to ideas. NO CLIP ART, and NO A.I. We celebrate artists, and we want a logo designed by an artist.</p><p><br></p><p>UPDATE: I've seen a LOT of clip art. I really don't want that. I've also seen a lot of submissions that were just minor tweaks of someone else's earlier submission.</p>

Colors to use in the design

Types of files I need for this design
