Well, I'm a perfectionist and the developers I hire yet a tough time I spot the smallest of things and it was brought up last week: "I love it how you spot the smallest of mistakes, it certainly makes us way more efficient and also makes sure everything looks good." It's very close to looking really good but needs tweaks Try not to make the intro too long by the way, I skip videos if they have long intros and I know lots of people do the same.

I'm gonna tag you for future stuff in this thread from now onward.

They're both SOOO much better than the original. The only issues I have: - Why is there a planet inside a planet? - Still too many missiles! They are missiles! If the missiles didn't look like missiles and did something like Bouncy City to City where you can clearly see them bouncing from city to city. Look at the intro to youtube video see how it connects! Something like that Other than that, I like both however I think the Green one looks slightly better. Somehow the green on green for me is clearer than the green on blue (I have no idea how it does but it does lol) and green also looks more positive than blue, which is more of a neutral color. I'd also suggest reducing the gap between the arms on the E and the arrow also the bottom arm, upwards a tiny bit, see the difference between image 1 and image 2 It's such a minor tweak to the logo that any previous logo material printed won't really notice.

Thanks so much Ryry. Appreciate the pro dissection as usual.
Except for that comment about the E...now I can't unsee it. Why, why did you have to tell me! I'm gonna have to bother my designer n tell her to make this edit asap.

I'm gonna have to bother my designer n tell her to make this edit asap. hehe, it is something very small but definitely worth it because it makes it clearer that it's an E. I just showed a different person the videos and they said the same things about war, rays of light and the hard to read z. He said the new one is WAY better.

Our final visual. With audio!!
After listening to it about 20 times, I'm going to ask him to remove the 2nd layer (the stupid bzz bzz sounds which follow the words animations). The 1st layer (background echo sound) sounds good enough. No need extra sounds for every word that comes in....thoughts anyone?

That's better much better, but it's still a little Star Warzy and busy. I swear there's even a little sample of the Nubian Royal Star Cruiser in there.

This is pretty much our final. Last small edits to make....I'm thinking of asking for the electric sound (when the big Z appears) to be removed. Apart from that, I like it.
Check it out on your full screen!

Okay, I approve of that last one, now it says more tech than flash.

I can't tell what the change is in this one compared to the last one... lol. I actually really like the electric sound personally, the only thing's I don't like is the fact the E is a little broken as I pointed out before and they still look like missiles to me haha but comparing both to your first one they are so much better. Fix the E and I'd run with it because it looks good.

A lot of audio was cleaned up. Nah got the electric sound removed, I feel it's a bit cheesy (and also it might annoy headphone users). I actually like the missiles very much. They represent worldwide connectivity (or coverage) so it plays its part there. And the E....well, if it's made you remember it I think it could actually help instead of hurt experiential marketing. We have 3 terms in our company mission, Focused, Integrity, Transparency and the E is sort of a 3 pronged object we could use as a graphic to represent these. Just not sure how yet.

The missiles don't appear like connectivity though, if they bounced from area you area increasing over time it would make it look like everywhere is connected and that your business and their business are growing too as its reaching more and more people

Oh and for the record. I like it.
They don't look like missiles to me. Looks like flowing data lines.
If they were hitting cities they'd look more like missiles.

It's coverage. Like, we are here for the entire globe, not just the country. So in terms of that message, I think it fulfills the purpose. And as LRW said, they're like lines......they're not exploding anywhere, so I don't know why you see them as 'missiles'.

I'm fine with it staying like that, I'm just pointing out that it's far from clear, if I see missiles then others will. I want it to be perfect for him. I'm a perfectionist! lol Where have you seen any form of media using geo-visualisation to show global connectivity that uses objects that just fly around the world without starting from a location, stopping at a location or ending in a location? There is a reason everyone sticks to the same sort of style when trying to show this... because it's clear and it works! I'll find a link when I'm home to show you some examples.

What part of 'let it go' is confusing ?
