I work in the live events industry as a rigger, lighting technician and special effects technician.
I need a new logo to use on my invoices, business cards and potentially stuff like stickers etc.
I want the design to be simple and mainly in black like a blackwork style tattoo, perhaps even with dot work style shading elements.
Three key symbols I'd like in the design are a bow shackle (used in rigging) , a theatre style lantern or lamp (used in lighting) and the explosive warning symbol (used in pyrotechnics)
I've included a screenshot of something I roughly put together to give an idea.
