Click to expand...

What is it for?
An easy thing to do is take a photo of a good couple doing a pose (e.g. contracheck, throwaway, etc in Standard; telespin, some supporting or position standing together in Latin). You're going to convert it into 2D shapes so it has to look good as a silhouette, remember that.

Pull that into Photoshop or your editor of choice... discard the background and convert it into a silhouette or a vector shape. You can then stylize however you want by simplifying, expanding shapes, whatever. Google for "photoshop silhouette"; you'll find tons of tutorials.

For examples of current logos to stimulate the flow of ideas, see ndca.org, usabda.org, etc. Look around.
 
You mentioned leader and follower, perhaps something to do with the hand to hand connection used in latin? Or perhaps something to do with the hand/arm positions of the leader and follower when the follower is invited by the leader in to the standard dance frame?
 
Use the web, Luke ;-) Seriously, many teams and clubs have a web presence. Have a look around to get ideas on the sorts of things that are done.
 
hey thats awesome i kind of wanted to move away from the hand in hand stuff... but kind of associate what dancing means as a whole!?
thats why i have asked you guys coz you know what its all about!
