I wouldn't change a thing. I love all the white space, makes everything really pop. Your choice of typography is appropriate and it really states the point without looking overdone.

I am usually not a fan of drop shadows, but under the circumstances, it fits. I like how you gradually incorporate its use without overdoing it (i.e. making the opacity & blur too high). I love it!

This has a lot of sophistication, and since it's for a design school, you want that for sure! I wonder if you would consider blending the black and red into a single "i" rather than having the two not quite meeting? That disturbs me on some level. So does the wide kerning bertween the P and the L in "play." Any way to work that out with the other elements in that area? Otherwise, this is really slick. I like.

Mara, that is so funny that you mentioned that about the P & the L and the kerning problem. I was thinking about that after I posted my comment, but went to bed afterwards and forgot about it. I was up too late last night!

Anyway, I'm not sure why the P needs to be that much larger than everything else. I don't think you need to make the word PLAY such an ostentatious statement. Perhaps minimizing the pt. size would be a huge factor in a more pleasing composition. Otherwise, I still love it.

Good work!

I like it a lot. Like the others suggested, the kerning between "p" and "l" needs to either be kerned in, or the tracking on "shadown" and "lay" need to be spread out.
