The Sicatoka Posted July 26, 2016 Posted July 26, 2016 I was looking for UND's color palette (Football uniform thread) and I stumbled across this: http://blogs.und.edu/fightinghawks/wp-content/uploads/sites/62/2016/03/UND-Fighting-Hawks-Brand-Identity-Development-Creative-Brief-03.24.16.pdf It's good information.

Hockeygirl97 Posted July 27, 2016 Posted July 27, 2016 Sounds like it was an epic fail, except for that last line, and considering the "D" kind of looks like a "P" that's even questionable. On an off note; Super excited for the season to start, I think this team is going to be great again. Quote

Did we get a "primary mark" and a separate "primary icon?" Quote

Ya never know. Political correctness run amok is one of the talking points of one of the prez candidates. Maybe the wheels could be rolled back, even if only that much. Quote

Quote What are the brand identity elements to be explored? Hawk: 1. Explore options in motion and possibly diving/attacking/wings spread – not static. 2. The exploration of movement within the hawk should examine how it perseveres in North Dakota’s intense environment/climate. 3. Should feel dynamic, powerful, free and strong. 4. Consideration should be given to a hawk watching over North Dakota. 5. The eye of the hawk and its talons present elements to be considered for additional exploration. 6. Indigenous North Dakota hawks. North Dakota Inspiration: 1. The Great Plains/Open Landscapes/Agriculture/Badlands. 2. Big Sky/Northern Lights/Stars/North Star/Sundogs. 3. Perseverance in an intense environment/climate. UND Inspiration: 1. Eternal Flame. 2. Exploration/Innovation. 3. Aviation. 4. State Institution. Design Direction? 1. Contemporary design. 2. Dimensional, not flat. 3. Explore new ways to integrate historic/traditional elements and state iconography. 4. Bold and iconic. Quote
dakotadan Posted July 29, 2016 Posted July 29, 2016 I can't say that I can pick out a single bullet point from that list and claim it describes the new logo. 2 Quote

Much like the requirements for a new nickname were ignored, looks like all of these suggestions were also ignored as well. Just add it to the nickname/logo frustration pile I guess!! 2 Quote

DamStrait Posted July 29, 2016 Posted July 29, 2016 How about the last item on the second page: "Notes: Final identity program must work with existing ‘ND’ ligature". Or not - whatever - depends on what your definition of "must" is. Quote

I have one shirt with FH on it, its a National Champion hockey shirt with Fighting Hawks on it, no logo except the interlocking ND. When shirts with logos are on them there will be more FH gear slowly creeping into society. Fargo is a bad example as shops are limited with UND gear to begin with. Give it a good 5-10 years and you will see more and more FH gear everywhere. Quote

Fetch Posted August 2, 2016 Posted August 2, 2016 ND has trouble with names We could have been east Montana (or wasn't it there yet) Or west Minnesota Or southern Manitoba or Saskatchewan Or were any of those Native American names ? Quote
