The SBS Family – Growing and Developing

Today I’m in Las Colinas, TX working with the SBS PSS team.  One of the traditions that we have as SBS MVPs is that Susan Bradley loves to get us grown men and women in matching T-shirts… yes it’s a little freaky, but we let her have her way to keep her happy   We do it too because it allows us to have a dig at the SBS team in different ways.

This year I asked my daughter (Alicia) to do a design for us and basically told her that the theme was “growing and developing”.  The SBS Family has been growing and changing now since 1997 when SBS 4.0 was a released.  I’ve been fortunate enough to have been involved with it for that long

She came up with the design below which shows the growth and development of SBS over the years from a baby product in SBS 4.0 through to Cloud based Aurora and more mature SBS7 products. 

In my daughters words…

I was asked to re-design the logo for the SBS family. I was given the original logo and from here I came up with the concept of the growth of humans and the development of technology. I incorporated the growth process of humans, as well as the development from sketch, to outline, black and white, simple colour, full colour and shading. I decided to do this as technology is an ongoing growing and developing process.

Yes – I’m pretty proud of my daughter and yes she is available for hire for graphical design work – contact me here if you are interested.  She has other examples of her art and photo manipulation on her site – http://little-miss-artist.com but below you can see some of the cool photo work she’s done…

End result – she called this Siren Caller
