Influences - Negative and Positive

Drive

I was looking for influences and I came across this identifying baby with rings. This logo is from Kendall Creative Shop, Inc the client is Drive, the industry that it is in, is Financial industry...quite strange and unusual.

I don't think this logo is very positive...the reaction on the baby's face isn't appealing.

A good image, not too much features, plain colours yet very appealing to my mind. But seen as a very structured shape form.

Going back to my logo, soemthing that come to mind, if I refer back to the photo of that flying baby;

• Bunny ears on a baby would show a uniqueness and trend setter of an individual. The icon needs to be clever and a sense of quirkiness.
  Baby = new, bunny ears = uniqueness or trend and maybe a designer with a new signature.



• If a baby icon is designed alone without the bunny ears it will look too plain plus it feels like it is selling baby stuff rather than the designer appeal.
  
  When designing and experimenting, make sure it doesn’t look like an actually bunny flying; must show a clear line to define a baby wearing bunny ears on its head. Something for me to keep in mind when putting the design together.

Have baby flying over some text?? Need to explore and worked on as this can create some personality.

Very good way of introducing words such as young and inspired. Image really produce a lot of words into the mind. Suits the design company. A good aspiration, a little too cliche maybe??
