The Executive Director approached me about coming up with some concepts to help move the organization&#8217;s brand into a more modern and sleek look. The final brand image is a good meld of all that the organization stands for. <span id="more-127"></span>The &#8220;O&#8221; is the central figure in the logo, standing for &#8220;orchestra&#8221;. It also represents sound with the coloured O&#8217;s behind it vibrating like sound waves from its centre. The coloured O&#8217;s are also a representation of the diverse membership across Canada that Orchestras Canada serves. Below are a few of the early options presented:</p>
<table class="ex1" border="0" width="100%">

<tr>
<td width="50%"><a href="http://bfdesign.ca/wp-content/uploads//2009/11/oc1.png" rel="shadowbox[post-127];player=img;"><img class="aligncenter size-thumbnail wp-image-129" title="oc1" src="http://bfdesign.ca/wp-content/uploads//2009/11/oc1-150x150.png" alt="oc1" width="85" height="85" /></a></td>

</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<p>The final artwork provided to the client had many options of use: a horizontal as well as a vertical logo for use when needed. The black and white version worked quite well.</p>
