#10 Sharpenr – Logo inspired by the documentary Helvetica
July 19th, 2009@orvet: Brief: A logo for Sharpenr sharpenr.net inspired by the Gary Hustwit documentary Helvetica
Today, an orgy in Helvetica. A lot of cool stuff has been done with Helvetica, so it’s a hard task to do something that is not just a worse version of a heavy hitters graphic poster.
The characters in Helvetica can all play lead if you ask them to, otherwise the are happy just being on the set, so in that regard they are easy to please. In todays movie they are trying out for parts in fx driven blockbusters but ends up in a character driven film.

Today is the 10th day of the project that will last to August 10th. There is also less then 10 open spots to get a free logo left since I have gotten a lot of good briefs, I haven’t said that enough I think. So if you thought of sending a suggestion for a brief but haven’t gotten around to do it, now is the time. Tweet it.
Also if you are a logotype designer, I love to do a “two designers, one brief”-movie, or just do one of the briefs I already did better and post it.
The music in today’s screencast is Lovetrain – Le Sport.
