-Marina del Rey, Ca.
-Official Feast Fest Logo Designer Remunne Tchaikov released the official Feast Fest 2012 logo Monday.
It was quite the test for the new addition Tchaikov, after longtime logo designer Andris Petrys, who designed thirteen FF logos from 1999-2011, left the event following FF 2011.
Tchaikov seems to have followed Petrys's pattern of a large, bold, colorful, display of the event's roman numerals (this year, XVIII, for 18, or the 18th Feast Fest), flanked at the top and bottom by smaller lines of text saying "Feast Fest" on top and the year on the bottom.
A few differences popped up, however. One of these was that in addition to the "2012" line below the roman numerals, Tchaikov added a second line of text giving the more precise dates of "November 21-25, 2012." Petrys would either amalgamate the dates and year into one line or leave the dates out altogether, just putting the year.
Another difference of note is Tchaikov's use of three different fonts in the logo--Petrys typically stuck with only two.
Tchaikov follows Petrys's lead in the color schemes used in the logo. Petrys almost always included reds, golds, oranges, or greens, to "emphasize fall and harvest color," so he explained during a 2009 interview, and it was also common for Petrys to include colors of the sea, blue, green, teal, and aquamarine, to emphasize the event's Marina del Rey location. The new designer Tchaikov followed this pattern to a tee.
Tchaikov's first logo is being generally considered not quite as appealing to the eye as Petrys's 2011 entry, but it still has received positive reviews.
Of the thirteen logos Petrys designed, all were viewed favorably, with the exception of one--his Feast Fest 2002 logo, intended to follow a "cuisines from around the world" theme, was considered "nausea-induc[ing]."
Exec've. Assistant Arthur Ayeiy spoke on behalf of Event Mgr. William Vanderbilt, saying, "Mr. Vanderbilt and our entire team is absolutely ebullient at the revelation this morning of the 2012 Feast Fest logo. We would like to extend our sincerest plaudits to our new logo designer, Mr. Remunne Tchaikov, for a job spectacularly done."
But not everyone is so wowed by the logo. Feast Fest Chef Patrick Kermell tweeted, "just saw new ff logo for '12. thing looks UGLY! he blundered it up like '02 again"
Kermell was reportedly unaware that a new logo designer had been chosen and thought the old designer Petrys had drafted the 2012 logo, likening it to his one failed logo design of ten years ago. An agent for Kermell apologized on his behalf to the new logo designer.
