FMP | 28|01|13 Geek Table Meeting


Notes from today's Geek Table Collective meeting.



NOTES

* Logo... decided on keeping it typographic and simple, with a hierarchy of varying weights.
* Beth's logo (Nexa Bold)- interesting 'g' letterform. Clean and professional without looking TOO formal.
* 'Spice Girls' roles on business cards to be applied, e.g. 'Branding Geek, Typography Geek, Print Geek', etc.
* Use Kirsty Hardingham's glasses image / logo where the typographic branding doesn't apply.
* Glasses logo can also be used throughout merchandising, such as on bags and t - shirts.

ROLES

* Curation (Emily Ward & Kirsty Alderson)
* Web Collateral (Lisa Whitaker, Beth Yates, Claudia Griffin)
* Print Collateral (Baljeet Samra, Sarah Pritchard, Kirsty Alderson, Kirsty Hardingham, Sophie Wilson)
* Type & Layout (Baljeet Samra, Sarah Pritchard)
* Photography (Sophie Wilson & Jessie Leong)
* Promotion / Advertising / Marketing / Communications (Sophie Wilson [Telephone & Emails], Baljeet Samra [Twitter], Beth Yates [Tumblr])

TO DO

* Kirsty Alderson- Contact Emily Ward re the curation of the exhibition.

* Check for the Nexa Bold Typeface re copyright issues, terms of use, etc.
* Experiment with the use of spot colours throughout the branding and logo design.
* Brainstorm concepts for the exhibition... what's the zeitgeist, what popular / new events will be happening at the time of the exhibition that could inspire a theme? (E.g. Opening of the 02 Arena, Tour de France start in Leeds, etc.)
