Design a sexy logo for a production company

EZ Productions (or EZ-Productions)

We make "it" happen

For a self-employed photo shoot producer. Meaning, tv networks hire EZ productions to set up photo/video shoots for their talent. These photo shoots are typically used to make the key art / posters, billboards, etc for television shows. Producing involves booking sound stages, photographers, crew, talent, equipment, permits, insurance, etc - basically, making sure everything happens on the date of the shoot, and goes smoothly.

Looking for a clean, modern design that has a little something more/extra than just the text. Since I bought 3 packages, I'm looking for a variety of options. We'd definitely like a clever take on the "EZ" part - we like when the letter intersect, or fit together like a puzzle, fit into a box - just something clever rather than just writing out the letters.

Owner likes red and black. I'm attaching their old out-of-date logo. This is clearly yay too corporate and early 90's looking, in desperate need of a refresh. I'd like to see a more contemporary red though, not just the typical Pantone Red.

A few considerations:
- Don't want this to look too "corporate"
- But, also not TOO playful.
- Think, Netflix, hulu, FX, (these are companies that hire us)
- Not too thin, should be legible at small sizes
- Only sans-serif font options
- I particularly like your logo sample for TIM RETREATS

Logo will be used on the following website, once it goes live:
