Illuminated Mind
We help people quit their jobs and make a living doing what they love.
Looking for some creativity here, but must fit within the branding of Trailblazer and have a specific kind of "rough" and distressed feel, but also clean. I know that sounds contradictory, but it's what I'm looking for.
The banner designed is for the launch of a movie-style trailer for a training product on quitting your job and creating your own freedom doing what you love. It's about playing your own game, not someone else's. The more those visuals can be encapsulated, the better.
Images like: ball and chain, breaking free, open road, new path, etc. probably work well.
Fonts used in our current branding is Grotesque MT. Doesn't have to be precisely this font, but it does help branding consistency.
Text on the banner should say:
"The Fastest Path to Getting Paid to Do What You Love"
Should also include the Trailblazer logo (uploaded)
Target audience is a guy between ages of 25-35. Think lifestyle design, guy who hates his job, wants to escape, do something more meaningful with more freedom.
