Really like where this is going. I think more black on the Belly and less of underbelly to shape the C better and maybe a little less detail might try to bring the legs to ground be more solid. I also don't think you need the type lines maybe solid there. looking good.

Hey, Mike, thanks for the comment. I'm sorry, I should have made a better indication that this is a rejected proposal. All good points you made though and I appreciate it. I never got the chance to perfect it and was bummed they didn't go this way!! They preferred the other one I posted in which they liked the %22seal%22 look and the subtle Alligator eyeball in their symbol. One cool thing though is they are going letterpress that seal. Thanks, bud.

I know Mike is the logo master, but I have to disagree. I think showing the underbelly, and repeating the line motif in the type really give this mark a lot of character. Plus, depicting the underbelly of the 'gator is an unexpected twist. That makes it unique. Nice one. This would've looked amazing leterpressed.

Thanks, Trish and Jon!**@Jon: I pushed hard to get them to go this way but I think they felt it was too whimsical, which is why I liked it, it's supposed to be a bit kooky with the underbelly and awkward disposition of the croc. Glad you like it, Jon, thanks.

What's the nature of their films and TV productions? If they're all sooper-serious documentaries and news, then yeah, I can see why this might be regarded as too whimsical. Nevertheless, it's a great mark. Hey, look at it this way, if the band Cannibal Croc ever approaches you to design a logo, you've already got a head start.

:) I can't recall exactly but do remember them mentioning something about a game show of some sort as a future production. So yeah, I felt the fun quality was good, but they wanted something more like a seal, something a tad more formal, for whatever reason.

Whoa, thanks guys! I appreciate the gallery spot! Yeah, Bernd, I got on here this afternoon and saw it up there and thought, wow, that presentation looks a bit boring. Hopefully this works better, it's more like their brand. Thanks!
