Iron DJ Logo Design & Branding
Iron DJ is an event centered around a DJ competition that focuses more on the musical aspect of DJing rather than the technical skills that are usually highlighted in 'battles'. The competition was created to be a play on the popular show Iron Chef and the client wanted something engaging but still somewhat playful. The original request was for a graphic of a cleaver chopping through a turntable, but after submitting an alternative concept ( turntable needle cartridge crossed with a cleaver over 45" adapter), the client was excited to use the latter.
Rendition of the original logo concept requested by the client. (Cleaver chopping through turntable.) This design was still used as supplementary graphic on the flyer and website.
