CMTC Logo Contest
The Canadian Manchester Terrier Club needs a new logo—and we need your help! Members and non-members alike are invited to submit designs or artwork for a logo featuring the breed we all know and love. The
designer of the winning entry will not only win bragging rights, they’ll also receive a copy of the 2010 CMTC calendar featuring the new logo and the last copy of the CMTC-commissioned print “Fetch” (shown at right). This 11x14” un-matted print was part of a limited run in 2003 and is hand-signed and numbered by artist Beth Rutherford.
To be eligible, logo designs:
- Must include both varieties of Manchester;
- Should feature a TMT (with naturally upright ears) and an SMT with cropped ears OR a TMT, an SMT with cropped ears and an SMT with button ears;
- Can show the dogs’ full bodies OR heads alone;
- May be any number of styles, from detailed designs to stylized line art. Hand-drawn artwork is welcome, but remember that the logo must be simple enough to be clear
when big or small and to economically reproduce in a variety of mediums such as print, embroidery and silkscreen;- Are limited to four (or fewer) colours and should be easily rendered in black and white. If you are working in a medium other than graphic art, consider preparing your design in a black and white version first, scanning it, and then adding colour and/or indicating that colour can be added if requested.
- Can include type (in which case it should clearly read Canadian Manchester Terrier Club), though this is not required. You may also consider incorporating a design element indicating this is a Canadian club.
- Must be received no later than October 15, 2009.
Once submissions are received, the CMTC Board of Directors will ensure they meet the above criteria, narrow the field down to a manageable number, and present the choices to eligible club members for electronic voting.
Submissions should be sent electronically or in hard copy to Wendy Kelly at fwaggle.kennels@ns.sympatico.ca or 2 Aspen Court, Lower Sackville, Nova Scotia B4C 1E5.
