Comment on S4C Eisteddfod identity looks very familiar by Jonathan

I don’t say it’s a rip off but there are many similarities. It’s the same font, used in the same way, with a rainbow colour drift, reflection, on a light background, the Eisteddfod version also uses hard refections within as well, it’s less watery than you think.

As you say it’s probably a coincidence, if I was that worried about my ip then I would have taken it further. It was other people that brought it to my attention and there’s going to be a new Eisteddfod logo this year as there is every year. I suppose purely by the law of averages it’ll look like something someones done somewhere! I need to make the irony more apparent in my posts I think.

Thanks for taking an interest.

Seems pretty far fetched to me to say it is a rip off. Are you going to suggest that with all brands that use a similar font? The treatment is similar however hardly the same, your version very hard and almost chrome like where as their’s is much softer and watery. Seems to me like it’s much more likely to be a coincidence. No piece of design is new or unique it’s all been done before if you look hard enough.

Cheers

Don’t suppose there’s any chance of getting one of these rather wonderful t-shirts now is there?
