Size & Spacing Texture

✦Familiar color combination that suggests friendliness and technology.

✦Leaving the ‘AND’ black creates a pattern as well as re-asserts the presence of black in the color scheme.

✦Being raised and appearing hand-drawn makes it look youthful yet modern and bold.

✦To create a block effect, the initials and words are the same width.

✦‘AND LICENSING’ & ‘PRODUCTION’ are the same length as each-other.

✦ Inside the letters ‘PAL’, there is a gravel texture to add character.

Tagline

✦ The idea of the company is to help artists get exposure while they can concentrate on doing what they do.

✦ It’s descriptive and incorporates the name of the company

subtly and effectively.

✦ The competition’s taglines are overly professional and lack personality. ✦ It’s SHORT, UNIQUE, EASY TO SAY and POSITIVE.

✦Plus, the tagline is a true statement.
