A new Filipino fashion company called Shie Corporation, which is soon to open in the City of Golden Friendship, Cagayan de Oro City, Mindanao, Philippines has launched a company logo and brand icon contest. The competition, which is open to all creative artists from all over the Philippines, will close on Saturday, November 1, 2008.
There will be 2 categories for the contest namely the company logo design category and the brand icon design category. The winner in each category is set to receive P40,000.00
For the company logo category, the idea is to create a logo that is Filipino in expression and design, which can ably embody Shie Corporation’s identity as fashion provider. Artists must creatively use the letters S-H-I-E. A maximum of 3 entries will be accepted per artist.
For the brand icon design category, on the other hand, the icon should incorporate graphics representing the tarsier (a small, endangered animal of the primate family). The designer may come up with creative representation of the tarsier in ways attractive for the seaming of the tarsier icon to the company product tags. A maximum of 3 entries will be accepted per artist.
*Note – just in case you’re wondering why they specifically chose the tarsier, Shie Corporation stated that the use of the tarsier icon forms part of their support for wildlife preservation.
Entries can either be hand-drawn or computer generated. For hand-drawn entries, designer may use color pens, oil pastels or crayons. The design may be drawn on a clean short-sized white bond paper. Entry should be placed inside a short-sized brown envelope. Designer must clearly specify as to what category (Company Logo or Brand Icon) his/her entry fits. This category must be written directly below the graphic of the design. Submit your entries through mail to Cagayan de Oro City P.O. Box 0641. Don’t forget to include your Complete Name, Return Address and Contact Numbers (telephone and/or cellphone numbers).
For computer generated entries, they should be saved in .jpeg format and sent via email to [email protected]. Include your name, address and contact numbers as well.
Should you have any inquiries, you may contact Meg at cellphone number (+63) 9197120374. Don’t forget to let them know you read the announcement in Mindanaoan!

Darlene’s last blog post..Somebody Steal my Tarsier Artwork for Shie Corporation Icon/Logo Contest
Darlene called the number many times but it seems the organizer is not answering her calls back,hmmm…i smell something fishy, could you please help us find where SHIE is located here in CDO? this is a grave offense against the origianl designer of the icon, it will be a great help if we could help Darlene get her Tarsier back, here is a link to the law of infringement here in our country,http://www.chanrobles.com/legal7history.htm#IPR-BRIEF%20BACKGROUND if this issue will be resolve in no time,it will help other CDO artist cuz the reputation of the artists in CDO is at risk cuz of this art thief,and we could also help SHIE get rid of this controversy if they help as well,cuz the original Tarsier is co-owned by http://istockphoto.com , SHIE’s name is also at risk cuz of this problem

Hi everybody,
Before anything else – I’d like to make this clear – the post found here in Mindanaoan is only for ANNOUNCEMENT purposes only and my intention was only to help spread the word about the contest. I am in NO WAY connected with Shie Corporation. I didn’t receive any compensation at all for posting the details of this contest. Again, and I would like to underscore this – my entry was only posted because I thought it could help inform the graphic designers/visual artists about this contest.
Now it seems that this issue has already gone way out of hand and in the spirit of helping Darlene and the other legal owners of the image in contest, I will see to it that I’ll exert all efforts to contact Shie Corporation and/or Meg. I for one know other media practitioners who have helped spread the word about this contest (radio and newspaper) so I’ll definitely let them know about this fiasco as well. Also, I’m sure that Shie Corporation wouldn’t want their name dragged into this mess.
Darlene – if you could please give me the real name of that guy who introduced himself as the winner of the contest as well as other details – please feel free to contact me.
Thank you and I’ll keep everyone posted.
