One thing that Higher Definition Media does is provide aerial cinematography services to film/video production companies anywhere in the world. We want to start a brand specifically for our aerial cinematography. We use unmanned helicopter systems and shoot HD video. The applications are endless from feature films to weddings, music videos, corporate work, agriculture, etc.

We like clean modern designs.
Here's someone else in the industry who has a clean, illustrative logo. That's probably the direction we like best, but we are open to other ideas. But we don't want to copy his logo at all: http://freeflycinema.com/

    #53 Can you show us a split white/black preview layout like #61 using the exact design you have in #53. And include the really small version of the logo so we can see how it looks tiny. Thanks.

    #60 The colors are not working for us. The B/W version looked better. Thanks.

    #59 We decided that we don't like the font, because the S looks like a /. The icon looks like the robot from Pixar's "Incredibles". Media is too small. Thanks.

    #58 Creative points. It's like a plane with a film reel as the props. Cool. Really appreciate the multiple color options. It just needs more cool factor. Thanks.

    #57 That's nice. Like the red and grey. Font is good. It just lacks cool factor. Thanks.

    #52 I think we want to totally drop that nice wing design you have. It's nice, but it reminds us too much of the freefly logo. Thanks.

    Draft #47 #48 #49 #50 Thanks for the coloring/gradient options. #47 is probably the best.

    Draft #46 The blades look kinda funny. Maybe if they were helicopter blades? We'd like Media to be under Airstrike. Airstrike being the dominant word. Maybe put the blades on top of the film reel rather than coming out the sides where the film is. Either like a shaft coming out of the center hole, or on top of the circle as if the film reel was the cockpit area. Thanks.

    Draft #43 Draft #44 Draft #45 These are ok, but don't have the sleek, modern feel we are after. #43 is the best. Don't really like the A in the icon. Try something different. Thanks.

    Draft #42 This is better. A paper airplane could work, but it needs to be out of the ordinary. The font choice isn't saying what we want it to say. But thanks for putting some color in it.

    Draft #41 Creative, but it feels too military (largely due to the font). And since we fly helicopters, we don't really want a fighter plane in the logo. Thanks.

    Draft #39 & Draft #40 the bird wings are not the direction we want to go. It's a helicopter company, and we'd prefer something more technical looking than something organic. And we don't want a picture of a camera as part of the logo. Thanks.

    Draft #38 That's a lot better. I like the lens. But we are really leaning away from the 2 wing design towards a more side-to-side logo icon. And the gold is not really working for us. Thanks.

    ALL DESIGNERS After looking through these designs, we've decided that the icons should read left to right. That way as our eye scans from left to right the motion of the icon feels correct. For example (not picking on anyone): Draft #17 is left to right, and Draft #18 is right to left. Designs that go in a direction should be directed like Draft #17, not like Draft #18. Thanks!

    Draft #36 Thanks for the designs. I really appreciate the light/dark options. Out of 34-37, I think 36 is best. I like the red better than the blue. Overall the design could work with some changes. Media is too tiny, it's almost hard to read. I'm not crazy about the bird wing, it's nice, but not what I'm looking for. The A and something could be an icon, I'd like something that's more of an image than text, but have text in it isn't bad. Thanks.

    Draft #32 Draft #33 Thanks, that's a different design. We like new ideas. The font works well. I like that you're using color. The prominence of the word "Airstrike" is good. The icon is ok, it's not particularly striking right now. Try playing with it. The RC helicopter in the background is not working for us, lets drop that. Keep it to just the logo. Thanks.

    ALL DESIGNERS We had an idea, that you are free to play with. We aren't sold on it, it's just an idea we want to throw out and see if anyone comes up with something awesome. A flying film reel. Maybe it's a film reel with spinning blades on top and film trailing out the end shaping the tail. Or maybe it's a film reel with trailing film that is somehow flying through the air. Maybe it's none of those things. Feel free to experiment. If you have a good idea, we'd like to see it. If it sparks a totally different good idea, we'd love to see that too. Remember, we want the Airstrike Media logo to be cool and look awesome no matter where we put it (website, 3D animation, company shirts, company hats, on the side of a car, etc). Thanks.

    Draft #16 an idea we had that might work with something like this is a "flying film reel". If you want to play with that idea we'd love to see something. Thanks.

    Draft #25 We'd love to see some variations, mostly with color, light, dark. It would be nice to see some dark on light versions. Maybe a version on grey. The icon and font are good, I probly wouldn't make any major changes there, but feel free to play with it. Thanks.

    Draft #27 Nice design. I like the thought behind it. Color is nice. Font is different but works well. And the film-paper airplane in the A shape is good. It's just not reaching out and striking me. I like the blue, but maybe it needs to be a punchy warm color instead. It's nice, but it's just not "striking" enough. It doesn't say "Airstrike! I'd love to see what else you can come up with. Thanks.

    Draft #19 is probably the best of your set of designs. It feels cool and clean. The angles are nicely combined with the flowing lines. Very sleek and modern. I'd like to see some variations on this one. One thing that we would like to see is some nice gradients, give it some more motion. It's almost there. Thanks.
