My Logo Design Inspiration

I’m just wondering how people come up with ideas for their business logos? Mine was inspired by music notation. My initial business idea for Reverb Studios was to be a digital recording studio so heavy on all things audio. I was also a former musician in a Doors cover band! The 3 squiggly lines on top of each other are called “Upper Mordents” and they are musical notation for a “Trill” which is basically playing 2 musical notes repeatedly in quick succession. Visually,the mordents also looked like repeating sound waves to me and since Reverb is an instrumental and vocal effect which basically repeats whatever you play or sing, it all tied in nicely!

Reverb Studios TV

I’d like to announce my new site www.ReverbStudios.tv which is a Video Blog featuring IT, Tech and Leitrim related videos and screen tutorials. There are also a selection of interesting videos from Youtube. If anyone has a relevant video of less than about 10 mins in length that they’d like on the site then let me know! Reverb Studios TV is the first in a number of new websites I have planned under the Reverb studios brand. Others planned include an Online Course website, a Social Networking site and an Online Shop open to all sellers.

Naming and Shaming Companies

I’ve decided to do my bit for the recession by naming and reviewing the companies that I do business with both as a customer and service provider myself. Whether the service was good or bad they will get a review from me and I wont hold back. I will include companies that I’ve done work for and who have been too slow to pay or not paid at all. Hopefully doing this will help some companies realise they need to be more professional in their approach. The companies I’m happy with will get free promotion for their good work!
