The Cba identity and what i would change

I think the cba logo works quite well despite being quite boring, it does the job and the colours work very well for archeology. I think i would of used green too.

• The name CBA  needs to go, as its the text talk slang for cant be arsed.
• the problems are

1.  it says cant be arsed
2. its a council, 
3. they are british
4. and archeologists

• and all three of those words needs to be in there ideally so its going to have to be something quite similar, and also not too long, i think 4 words max.
• for example...British archeology society together and really digging  (bastard would be too long)   

• it needs to be an acronym, i know the bloke who gave us the brief hates them but the cba wont and thats what they would want. Its not like they are a bad thing, a hell of alot of very successful company's use acronyms. Also, as he said thats how government, council people ect talk, in acronyms.

Here we go

I have decided to do the CBA brief, out of both of them i think i could get the most out of this one and also i was into Archaeology and history when i was younger, up untill the point were we started to get taught the polotics side of history and i lost intrest instantly. If somebody wasnt going into battle i didnt care and i think the YAC will be the same. Show them a 400 year old knife, fork and bowl and they wont care but show them a battle axe and they will love it. Maybe that was just me and i watched Conan the barbarian too many times.
