Entertainment Logo Design Tips

Choose the Right Icon

Entertainment logo icons

Even without consciously realizing it, we encounter icons on a daily basis. Icons are universal symbols that represent our favorite brands. There are different icons like abstract, geometric, pictorial, crests, emblems, interactive, and custom. How you choose depends on the specific purpose and meaning you want your logo to convey. 

Entertainment logos can fulfill your promise to entertain your audience with a unique icon. You can use a piece of industry equipment, such as a TV or microphone. An example is New Line Cinema’s film icon. Another option is to use a star or spotlight icon (like 20th Century Fox) to symbolize celebrity stardom.

On the other hand, you don’t have to use an icon in your logo. You can choose a wordmark logo, which is simply your business name. Some well-known examples include Miramax Films and Lionsgate.

Pick the perfect fonts

Typography for entertainment logos

Just like you can play around with various icons to see what you like, you can also experiment with different fonts. It’s important to choose a font that captures the essence of your brand, so do some research to see what each font means (yes, there’s a psychology behind fonts). 

For example, fonts in the serif family represent authority, tradition, and respect, and those in the sans-serif family are friendly, clean, and modern. So if you’re looking for a playful font, go with a script or decorative font. But if you want to avoid cluttering your logo, stick with a simple sans-serif font. 

Make sure to check that the font you choose is legible so it can be clear no matter how it’s scaled. And last bit of advice: Your logo font should reinforce the message you as a brand are trying to communicate to your audience. 

Find the Best Colors

In the entertainment industry, you’re welcome to be as creative as you’d like when it comes to your logo’s color palette. You can use an assortment of colors like NBC (but more on that in a moment) or stick with one color like DreamWorks. Be sure to review color psychology before choosing a color palette to make sure it’s in line with the specific message you want to convey to your audience. 

A note about best practice: Ideally, you should stick with 1 to 3 colors max. That isn’t a rule that’s set in stone—just look at NBC’s rainbow logo! It’s all about balance; if you use a distracting font, choose a single, simple color. 

Layout

A great entertainment logo should be versatile enough to be used across different platforms and easy to resize. You’ll use your logo on marketing materials like business cards, stationery, emails, letterheads, social media, and your website. That means that your logo will be resized and rearranged depending on where it’s being used.
