Shouldn't matter what it's for, sketching out something than doing it in illustrator really shouldn't take that long. |
I agree and disagree, but then again I'm not a contest-kind of person :P It all depends on what you as a designer want from the contest. If I wanted to join a contest it would be out of three reasons:
1)Prize (then I would do my utter best at it)
2)Experience and self-development (where I would also do my best)
3)Experimentation and fun
If I did it for the last one (which is the most likely) then I would try something new, still try to develop myself but I wouldn't spend time glaring at a pantone-chart, doing 1000 test-prints (all on different printers) and spending hours fixing all my anchorpoints, like when making a "real" logo for a client
I would work better for paid work than for a contest for shure, but I don't think that makes me lesser of a designer than you? We all have different views on things you know.
