Hi Graham,
I am working on the logo, layout and overall visual identity of www.trailermusicnews.com. First I would like to add that was a long debate of the name aswell. ‘trailermusicnews’ was born from functionality and it provides news, interviews, articles regarding trailer music which is just a part of production music business. Tho trailermusicnews.com seems to surpass its original purpose and cover every news, events regarding epic music.
I guess an explanation is needed here: epic music basically become a synonym of trailer music. Trailer music describes a typical music genre: massive orchestra with choral sound. First fans used epic music to describe the songs of popular trailer music companies such as Two Steps From Hell, Immediate Music, X-ray Dog. We thought that we don’t want to leave behind the reputation trailermusicnews.com built over the two years.
So want to stick to this name, but from the beginning it was used as an abbreviation: TMN. So we decided we can built a brand on TMN must efficiently than on trailermusicnews.com so that’s why the abbreviation features in the logo. But we wanted to catch and built epic music into the brand that’s why we created a tag line very early: “Junkies for epic music.” TMN is a community site for fans who love epic music, but further we would like to have a store to sell music.
The T letter of our previous logo, which one features on the site now (letters in circle) is really confusing, because people can not decide it’s T or M and I wanted to catch this and inherit it into the new logo. I want the logo to break from trailermusicnews and make it a stand alone symbol of TMN.
