Needs:
The Council of the European Union started a contest for a new logo. Good. Unfortunately most designers cannot participate, because the barrier in terms of revenue and number of large-scale projects is really high (s.a. http://www.consilium.europa.eu/media/2172150/uca069-13-simplified-contest-notice-19.07.2013.pdf). Not so good.
We suggested them to crowdsource the logo design and let everyone participate. However they went on with their procedure. That´s why we decided to start our own contest and invite the Brandsupply designer community to send in their creative logo proposals!
We cannot guarantee that the winning logo will be used by the Council. We initialize it to show that crowdsourcing designers can do at least as well as the big agencies. Maybe better. We will make sure that the contest and all the designs gets media attention. Even more so the winner. So take your chance to earn some more fame!
Please note: This is not the official contest of the European Council, but a contest run by Brandsupply.
Company description:
“The Council of the European Union (sometimes just called the Council) is the third of the seven institutions of the European Union (EU).” Says Wikipedia. And they are usually right. Of course much more useful information and also their current logo can be found there: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Council_of_the_European_Union
note: The French and German translations of the briefing can be found in the attachemnts!

Dear Brandsupply,
Hereby my idea for this interesting contest. I created a logo which I would name "rainbow of oppertunities". Its the C of council, in the form of a council. Formal, authority and distinctive. It is in the tradition of the other Euro-logo's but.... when their is a summit the stars come to life! So the people know their is something on hand.
I am looking forward to any reaction.
Most regards, Ted -

Whatever variations you see fit. At the end of the project the community will choose a winner from 5 of the designs, selected by the Brandsupply team. We try to get the most out of every design. If there are any variations that you feel that will increase your changes feel free to upload them!
