Contest Brief

Name of the company TRADUU. It is formed from the word “TRADUCTOR” ( Spanish for translator) or “TRADUCCIÓN” (Spanish for “translation”). I duplicated the last “U”, for domain registration reasons, and from inspiration on fiverr and busuu, two services I love.
Business Area: We are an online translation school. A site similar to Udemy, but only with translation courses. The website will offer courses for professional translators. I will offer courses on subtitling, marketing, using translation specific software such as Trados or Wordfast, translation specialties such as website translation, legal translation, medical translation, etc. What makes my product special is the modern look, the concept of video, short classes (like www.udemy.com), the young approach (aimed at translators between 22 and 35 years mainly), the social media presence, the customer service, and the variety of courses offered (my main competitor only offers courses on translation technology). This is a modern approach to learning, in a fun, relaxed, modern, young way, so I think the logo should reflect that.
I don’t have a specific colour preference, I like blue, cyan, orange and green, for example. My logo as a professional translator is kind of cyan, but I am not sure how that would work for this. I usually like mimalist flat one color logos. I would just stay away from concepts related to translation like “language” or “message” (language symbols, conversation balloons that are overused for translation logos) since this is not really a translation service, but a translator training one. As you will see in the models of logos I like (attached to the project), I like simple images. Minimalist logos, iconic logo, thin lines, simplicity. I like text logos too, but only if they are very intelligently intervened, modifying something in the text to introduce the concept.

    We can also try some minimalist logos with animals, or other natural elements that somehow represent any of the ideas behind the business, please refer to the files attached to the project that are examples of logos that I like.

    Maybe we can play and try to create something with the 2 Us? I see some of you went there, and I think it's a good path, I just don't think we've found the right use of the Us. It should still be possible to tell they are 2 Us or people will not get the name right. Thanks!

    Thanks everyone, I am still seeing many logos coming in that are too complex, not minimalistic, or that are based on conversation ballons or similar. Please avoid those overused symbols for translation and keep it simple, plain, minimalistic, somethink that works in one color... thanks!

    I believe the icon or the intervention that you make in the text should somehow be realated to the concepts behind the name. Either translation or education (or ideally both). It could even be through a metaphor with an animal, fruit, object, icon, anything, but that is in someway representative of an idea connected to the name.

    Please note that the project description says "I would just stay away from concepts related to translation like “language” or “message” (language symbols, conversation balloons that are overused for translation logos) since this is not really a translation service, but a translator training one." Also, I'd like the icons you are including to have some sort of meaning. If you can clarify yours, that'd be awesome since I am looking at some of them and can't figure it out. Thanks!
