Logo Design Brief
I've just started my own educational consultation business after working in special education for the past 10 years, and I'm in need of help on a logo. My business is called "SeaChange Educational and Behavioral Consultation" and I'm really excited about it! My passion is working with students with significant behavioral and mental health needs (if they flip tables, they're my kind of kid). I created SeaChange so that I could consult with school districts to design more therapeutic approaches to working with these students. Right now, most districts simply warehouse these kids and they never get a shot at being successful. Even though my business is kid-centric, I want a professional, grown-up looking design. No apples, chalkboards, blah blah blah. I really like the idea of a school of fish with one differently colored fish swimming the opposite direction, but I respect you as a designer and want to see what you think would be great. I am open to your ideas on colors!

Must have
