Contest To Create New CMU "C" Logo, Slogan |
|
Central Methodist University is asking its fans to put on their creative hats, have some fun and submit their ideas for a new, unique "C" and slogan that will be utilized across the Central Methodist athletic department.
The two competitions were announced Wednesday morning by Vice President for Institutional Growth and Student Engagement Ken Oliver. The winner of each contest will receive $250.
The
new "C" must be original and unique art, not a standard font or copied from
another institution or organization. The design must be distinctive, visually
appealing and able to stand alone on a banner or be incorporated with other
design elements into products such as jerseys, warm-ups, t-shirts, caps, window
decals, brochures, flyers, posters, letterhead and web pages.
The winning submission will be displayed in both official school colors [green (Pantone 3425) and black] and black and white. Consideration will also be given as to how the design integrates with official Central Methodist typefaces (Humanist 521 and Apollo).
The new slogan must be original and unique to Central Methodist University, preferably no more than one sentence or possibly two short phrases. The winning submission must reflect positively on CMU and be adaptable to a variety of uses, including website, clothing apparel, banners, fliers and recruitment materials. The slogan must be clear, concise and effective when used in audio formats.
People are welcome to submit entries for either one or both of the contests. The winning submissions will be unveiled on Saturday, Feb. 23, during the Eagles Senior Day basketball games against Baker University.
The deadline for entries is 5 p.m. CT on Monday, Jan. 21, 2013. Entries should be submitted on paper or via good-quality jpg or PDF electronic files to: Ken Oliver, Central Methodist University, 411 Central Methodist Square, Fayette, MO 65248, or via e-mail to koliver@centralmethodist.edu. All entrants should include name, address, phone number and e-mail address.
Entries will be judged by a committee of select staff and students, and no member of the committee or of their immediate family is eligible to submit an entry. The winning design will be the sole property of Central Methodist University, and CMU will retain all rights in perpetuity without restriction.
All decisions are final, and CMU has the right not to declare a winner if a satisfactory entry is not submitted.
