Rawporter
Rawporter is the world's fastest exchange of raw news content. Our users are everyday people who are in the right place, at the right time and use our iPhone app to capture breaking news videos and images. This content is immediately distributed to thousands of media outlets who use these videos and images to enhance their news on TV, Online, Print or even Radio.
App Icon must quickly and easily convey the Rawporter brand and communicate the functionality.
Rawporter is purely a UGC distribution platform that targets breaking news contributors and clients. We do not filter or moderate content and expect many contributions to be quite graphic.
The camera frame corners seen in the logo must be incorporate as this is the single element that will be consistent across all creative assets.
The App Icon does not need to include the "Rawporter" name.
Current Landing Page: http://rawporter.com
Must adhere to Apple Guidelines:

We expect Rawporter to become THE essential iphone app and downloaded by everyone. You never know when you might be in the right place at the right time to capture the next big breaking news story.
