Logo Designing : TheaterFest 2012-13

TheatreFest. I have much love for this event, as I have iterated in my earlier post also. They held a competition to design a logo which they were missing for a long time now. I brainstormed on ideas during a class and came up with some sketches. I was too late in finalising and digitising any design and couldnt submit them as entries.

Following are 2 of the designs that I finalised.
Method : Photograph -> Photoshop -> Tracing via pen tool -> stroke paths by brush.
"TF"

The design tries to justify the meaning of a theater festival. I had some other variants of the design, which I will update a little later. Enjoy!

EDIT :
I forgot about the post altogether. But since I had promised other variants, I will honour it and post them, even if that means working more to finish them :P
I was really interested to create vector based designs. The simulated brush pressure and the stroke like a calligraphy pen is to die for. Plus you can very easily change the design later on.

This design somehow feels very young, joyous and has a flair. My personal favourite.
