  Hi once more everyone, Now that the entry period has concluded, we're in the process of narrowing things down and making final determinations. By way of preview, we anticipate a few stages of this phase of this process, as follows: 1. Narrowing each of your designs down to a single preferred variation (in process); 2. Meeting with our focus group regarding such single preferred variations (to occur over the next week) and obtaining feedback; and 3. Making final decisions, and selecting and awarding a 5th gold star to the winner. In this phase, it's likely that we'll slowly narrow things down. It's very hard, as we like all of your work! By the end of the week, there will be 1 design and variation remaining - the winner. Thank you again to everyone, and more to come over the next week!

  Hi again everyone, We have made a run through with comments on each of the 6 design finalists (in certain cases, there are a couple of variations of the 6 base designs under consideration). We feel that we're close to the finish line in the process, and there's aspects of each of the designs that we really like. It will be very hard for us to make a decision, but we will do so in the period after the current entry phase is concluded. Thank you again for all of your efforts!

  Hi everyone, We have reviewed each of the submissions since yesterday, and we have made some further hard decisions using the star system and eliminations to narrow the entries down to 6 designs, which we consider finalists for the project. As we still are interested in seeing these final 6 developed further in certain respects, we have extended the period for 3 days. We will select a winning design after the expiration of this 3 day period. Except as we otherwise may communicate to you in a direct message, during this 3 day period we mainly are interested in seeing different fonts, color combinations, and nuance/detail tweaks, if any, that you feel would further refine and polish your designs. With respect to fonts (and, again, unless we communicate to you in a direct message otherwise), we feel that the block lettering fonts provided are on target. We're interested, though, in seeing additional script fonts, and feel that we haven't connected with the ones submitted to date. Thank you again to all who have participated, and to those continuing into this extension/finalist round, we wish you the aboslute best in this phase of the project!

  Hi again everyone, As we're now in the latter stages of the entry period, we felt compelled to start making some hard decisions about the entries submitted to date. Accordingly, we've narrowed things down quite a bit using the star system and eliminations. We see things that we like in each of the designs that have made it through to this point, and we have given comments on how each may be further developed and/or refined. Also, please feel free to try things that we haven't commented on -- we've noticed that we often don't know that we like something until we see it in front of us. :) To those whose designs have been eliminated, please know that we greatly appreciate your efforts, and that the elimination process does not in any way reflect on the gratitude that we feel for your creativity and talent. We truly are thankful to each and every designed who has participated, and we wish that we had a fraction of the skill that you do!

  Hi once more, everyone, We've gone through all of the submissions since the last run through them, and have provided feedback both via the stars system and, where applicable, with specific comments (due to time constraints, we unfortunately have not been able to send direct messages to everyone). It's great to see all of the different concepts and how you're developing them! One note for all of you: we generally are not amenable to designs that incorporate common props, such as stethoscopes and/or hearts (unless implemented in a very unique, non-stereotypical way). We do like both abstract and realistic designs - there is no preference from that standpoint. What resonates well with us simply are well conceived and implemented designs that reflect professionalism, caring, and the other attributes referenced in the creative brief. Hope this helps, and we're always open to new or refined ideas and concepts!

  Hi again everyone, A few more comments to provide some additional guidance: * We're gravitating more toward designs that include some depiction of a family (mother, father, child), rather than those that are only wordmarks * For the family depiction, as referenced in our initial message, we tend not to like persons that are shown as the usual "V" figurines; some degree of detail or uniqueness is desired showing representations of people. It can be either realistic or abstract; we just don't care much for the typical "V" style of showing individuals * Please show as the tagline "Family Medicine"; we're gravitating away from using "Medical Corporation" * We're using the star rating system to provide additional guidance/direction to you, taking the initial brief, and each of the posts in this discussion section into account Thanks!

  Hi everyone, Thank you very much for the entries so far. Within the next day, we'll be reviewing them and providing specific feedback. For now, and in general, a couple of comments: 1. For those who are submitting designs with figures (father, mother, and children together), these designs do address the elements of kindness, caring, and family that are inherent in our brand. For these designs, the more uniqueness and/or detail that you provide in the figures, the more we would be inclined to like them. To give you an idea, for example, here's a few designs of figures from other contests that we like: https://www.zilliondesigns.com/drafts/display/contest/1288549/draft/d000442e73cc0dd7080b608ca12c2c6b5681878 https://www.zilliondesigns.com/drafts/display/contest/942013/draft/bc064c19ce2f3641c3d8bc575a68abc14521784 https://www.zilliondesigns.com/drafts/display/contest/1288549/draft/4b537abbf0fcb061e897baf24312ddf65676057 https://www.zilliondesigns.com/drafts/display/contest/1268342/draft/c200dfec90a9ca92ab434a0a9a68a0b95579534 And here's a few designs of figures from other contests that we don't like as much: https://www.zilliondesigns.com/drafts/display/contest/1277554/draft/94c4b05a89411d4e886b876def0c44415616636 https://www.zilliondesigns.com/drafts/display/contest/942013/draft/de8afa448c3eb1535d237eca1168ae834520796 https://www.zilliondesigns.com/drafts/display/contest/942013/draft/4e79651002a987ffeb4438ed144d660a4520024 https://www.zilliondesigns.com/drafts/display/contest/1288549/draft/f9dcc261205f6d4b5e56153e9bc672175675801 2. The above comments regarding designs with figures are not meant to indicate that designs with figures are the only types of designs that we would like (or that full body figures are necessary). As referenced in the creative brief, we're open to all concepts that capture the branding objectives. 3. A reference to "Family Medicine" or "Medical Corporation" should be included (either one or the other, but not both). Thanks again!
