A new day, a new logo



If you have followed the progress of Woven Thorns Productions at all, you would know that we have undergone at least 4 logo changes and 10 corporate image changes. (It wouldn't be a normal Friday without one.)

So now that we've had the same logo for over a year, and it has been placed on hundreds of business cards and thousands of documents, we have once again changed our logo. This time, we have taken our original logo, designed in 1997, and have outlined it to create a solid black and white logo. The text below the logo will be our official wordmark, and the official release of the logo at http://www.woventhorns.com will mark the release of our new corporate image. (Proposed release date: November 7, 2005)

This time, we will be going back to our roots while considering design and concepts of modern day. (modern day changes every month and a half in the tech industry) We will be releasing a vector version of our logo for anyone to use for advertising, linking, or just showing support of Woven Thorns Productions. This will be available for anyone willing to read over and comply with a 15 page trademark manual, but don't worry, you'll have more freedom than with most logos.

The wordmark is almost an exact copy from our original logo, and the cross and thorns branding image are a simplified silhouette of the original logo, making clear our owner's personal beliefs, and the direction the business is taking.

If you have any comments about the logo, you are more than welcome to keep them to yourself.

That or you could post comments at the bottom of this blog, but either way I probably won't take negative reactions to heart. (I call it positive-thinking, it makes coping with bad design much easier.)
