Contest Brief

Our Company is named PRO FLOAT INC. (our logo contest is currently also underway, and we are undecided please feel free to submit to both contests!)

PRO FLOAT INC is a isolation float tank company that is looking for brand new logo. Here are a few videos that quickly explain the industry http://vimeo.com/82751878 & http://abcnews.go.com/Nightline/video/sensory-deprivation-altered-state-mind-23760919

We are going to be offering a line of float pods for use in the home. This will be marketed similar to a hot tub, like in these videos. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1070936311/zen-float-tent-first-affordable-isolation-tank-for & https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hvv4WJMF3ug

We need a banner for Twitter, Facebook, and our Webpage. Our brand will be mostly targeted to MMA & Yoga community providing spa equipment for optimal mental and physical recovery through "Restricted Environmental Stimulus Therapy", or R.E.S.T.

People that are active and health conscious will be the target market. The industry has strong roots in psychedelic images. Our banner should reflect the psychedelic nature of the human body in regards to nature and space. Google "Alex Grey Art" in images.

We basically need to find a wicked photo of nature or space, and try and merge the image of the human anatomy that reflects great health, without making it look like "a picture for crazy hippies", but rather a neat merge of the human body. brain, and spirit.

Have fun with this project! Imagine that you trying to create a picture of an "Enlightened Athlete"

Here are some suggested quotes to use with the image.

At Pro Float Inc...
"every floater is a researcher and the subject is your body & mind"
"A sanctuary is a safe place to find out more about yourself. There are so many answers to be found by looking inward and using R.E.S.T. as a tool"
"Deep R.E.S.T. encourages better care, of our minds & our bodies."
"Appreciate the simplicity & rewards of deep R.E.S.T."

I know this is a crazy concept to understand at a glance. I encourage all serious contestants to take the time to watch the attached videos & help gain understanding of industry before selecting a photo to Photoshop or painting to modify. I want to see the creativity of every contestant and encourage everyone to have fun with this project & I will promise to give constructive feedback to all who enter. Good Luck!

    Sorry for those of you that I have not had a chance to give more detailed feedback too. I have had a lot of entries in a lot of contests and unfortunately I only have time for so much feedback. It's been a great contest everyone, and I appreciate all the hard work everyone has done.

    but why 5 stars for #109 ? These aren't even the banner dimensions. That picture of scan of human head makes no sense. It has black border and no transparency, just copy-paste, mistakes are everywhere. I am not sure, but I don't think this is fair contest...

    • 11 years ago
    1. mark3g
      mark3g
      • 11 years ago

      The dimensions are not incorrect because minor changes can be adjusted. And the thing about brain is that black order is not visible and it is a cover pic for FB/Twitter, not for an HD graphix contest. Good Day!

    Don't forget to enter our stock photo contest. A lot of the submissions from this I would love without any text. We also have an animated logo contest for those of you with that skill. Only 1 person is planning to submit so far. We're going to need flyers, business cards, memes. Love to keep seeing you all involved and hopefully we can find work for those willing to meet our needs. Good luck!

    Hey guys love the submissions. Love how our new logo from mark3g looks. Feel free to scale the logo down and move it to dark areas of your pictures (avoid bottom left corner where profile picks sit). The text in the quotes should be clear to read. Stay away from fancy fonts... I want my grandma to be able to read it cause the letters are clear and contrast. Otherwise, continue to have fun. I would like to see a submission where someone photo shops an MRI, to look like water!? Anyone up for the challenge?

    Those of you using quotes... remember this is a Twitter / Facebook banner. The words should rest in the top half of page, so the "Profile Picture" doesn't block them. Text should avoid Bottom Left quatrain. Hopefully this is helpful to some of you and explains some of my lower votes to some of the better entries. Submissions look great.

      Haha Mark3G. Yeah. For those I have rated 5 stars that do not have text in the right place, that means I would have loved the photo. But please make those revisions I request to increase your odds of winning. I will continue to do my best to answer as many questions and provide as much feedback as my time allows.

    • 11 years ago

    We will be deciding on our logo in 8 hrs or so, then we can upload it for anyone who wants to insert it. Although... it's okay not to say "Pro Float", and just use the quotes on the banner as Facebook and Twitter have locations to overlay the logo.

    Love the submissions so far. Keep up the cool ideas. Would love to see someone play with water, nature, or human anatomy (like a MRI of a brain). So many cool concepts could be done with this industry. Go nuts!
