Does whatever company that UND goes with get a flat fee for coming up with the logo, and then UND gets 100% of the licensing merchandise money? Or does this company get a % of that money? What if UND wants an 'alternate logo' 3 years down the road? Do they have to go back to this company, or could they open it up again? What all does this contract entail? Which ever firm is hired is paid as an outside contractor doing "work for hire" and all rights, interests, etc are transferred to UND. I'd assume UND is free to come up with alternate logos in any manner they want in the future. The scope is pretty much all encompassing. Start from scratch and come up with everything. The RFP states: Quote A comprehensive brand package that includes, though is not limited to: Primary graphic logo Secondary mark(s) Custom font Style guide Brand usage guide Quote

Here's an example of Phoenix's interpretation of a hawk for UL-Monroe (Riverhawks) If we get some garbage like this, I'll move from self-enforced indifference on Fighting Hawks to open rebellion. I'll make t-shirts that say Go and list every single player on the roster of said sport than have anything do with the creepy pervert smile coming from a hawk. Then I can talk about how crappy it is, and I can't be accused of not supporting the team. I will be as pissed as a person can get about a stupid cartoon bird if what we end up with is on par with this. I'll blame everyone involved as well. Couldn't hate that bird more ... 3 Quote

The Sicatoka Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 Looks to me like they stole the "determined" eye from our ugly woolly brown drool cow neighbors to the south. Quote

Whoever accepted money to come up with that is a scumbag. Pure and simple. If someone actually paid for this, it might actually shake my faith in capitalism. Quote
MoreSiouxForYou Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 Phoenix(Bird) and all of the work they have done in Bird Logos, really reminds me of how unoriginal this is. Just saying, not wanting to start a debate. 1 Quote

I had fixed it my original post but after it got quoted a few times. Not sure how I got that confused because I literally had to click on UMass-Lowell to pull up the logos. Quote

77iceman Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 The more i see these "birds with teeth" logos, the more i like my super simple design... Someone asked why i didn't put in for the RFP. I said "i'd rather not design for a client that is forced into the project and who's users won't like it no matter what it is". Quote
dagies Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 Your stuff is much better than the stuff from, at least, Phoenix. They make some nice images but nothing out of the box. Just cartoony looking stuff. Quote

SME did the Big Sky and NAU rebranding among other things. Phoenix Design does a ton of college work. Summit seems to handle more specific events/things but do have a variety in their portfolio. Did they have to provide artwork already? Or are they just the three finalists based on previous work? Or by the lowest price in the RFP's? Just curious... Quote
