BizTweet required two logos, for the lite and Pro versions of the product. And I had very much fun and the opportunity to do some illustration work.
Initial concepts
The brief was for a very clean and simple illustration. As such, some of the initial concepts were fairly corporate in the approach:
However, a full colour bird illustration below proved to be more representative for what is essentially a web 2.0 product. The final logo incorporated the Twitter bird and a web 2.0 look.
The final product: BizTweet Pro
BizTweet Lite

Clean and bright, and not childishly cartoonish. You did a great job!

Thank you, very nice of you to say that.

The final logo doesn’t have ‘clouds’ anywhere (except probably sky color in background), I like the shades on bird’s body and wings but I still think a flying bird among clouds may have made more sense.
Saw some your logos in the logopond contest, I wonder if you have a B&W logo related to twitter business.

I like what you did with it. Looks really good. I really wish I was better at Photoshop sometimes. Did you design the full color bird?
July 15th, 2009 at 9:48 pm
Yes I did design the whole bird – but in Illustrator, not Photoshop. I’m an Illustrator kid of girl I suppose.

Great design! I particularly like the background – looks a bit tribal-ish :-)
July 16th, 2009 at 4:39 pm
Ah, I’ve never really worked with Illustrator before. Still looks good though.

I love the logos, but especially the differences between the Pro and Lite versions.

I like the lite version better because of the simplicity.

Actually, quite an effective logo. I like the cleanliness and “simplicity” of it.

I am a big fan of Twitter myself, so this is something that I will look into. Personally, I don’t understand why people argue with the fact that Twitter is a fantastic marketing tool, especially when there are things like Biztweet available. They are missing out!

Really nice – the web is aflutter (sorry) with twitter bird logos and this one holds its own. I do like the visual difference between lite and pro versions – but I think including the word “lite” would have been better for the client’s business model (eg a clearer reminder that they are using a cut down version). Also I’m not sure about the strapline “explore your cloud”, but I’m assuming that was the client’s brief!
