A NOR-CAL Secessionist Movement, Getting Organized!

So you may notice we have some new visuals. It is important for us to rally under a consistent banner, or at least that is the direction that I gave our PR/Marketing firm that I have hired. We'll refer to them as the NOR-CAL Propaganda Ministry (or NPM). This is a talented group that sympathizes with our movement. We have worked out an advantageous billing structure that won't crush our grassroots movement but yet will still provide our cause with all the tools we'll need for this prolonged battle. So keep checking in as we will be uploading all these tools that will be made available to assist our NOR-CAL Brothers and Sisters (YOU) in getting the message out!!!

A little bit of background regarding the graphics.

We have tried to develop a bold, recognizable and professional visual identity that will begin to shape the visual Brand of our movement. We have focused on bringing a bit of a traditional look through careful selection of typography with a color palette that is much inspired by Northern California's landscape as well as our current State Flag. You may have noticed the two-headed bear, this represents the current "state" of our state in it's rapid pace to get absolutely no where!!! We hope this will be a detail we can drop at some point as we get closer to our goal of secession from SOCAL. We have also graphically depicted what our true goal is to separate the state in two (via the dotted line). The scissor graphic details also symbolically register our intent. I realize that NPM may feel that I am over explaining this to you all (it is a good design and it should speak for itself) but it is important for you all to know the origins of a BANNER we will all collectively gather under and around!

Would love to get feedback from you all. Your input and suggestions regarding this movement and how it is shaping up will be very important. Please drop us a line.

I promise we will go into greater detail regarding our stance, platform and strategy in executing our goals. We are surrounding ourselves with some key political strategists and ex-politicos that are familiar with our dysfunctional state government and how we might influence its future course. We are always looking for more experienced talent, drop us a line in how you might help our cause.

Carpe NOR-CAL!!! (our official tagline)
