Modern 4K Logo for DecodingYT

My YouTube channel, “DecodingYT,” needs a striking new logo that can sit confidently in a profile circle yet scale up for banners, intros, and merch. I’m after something modern, unique, and instantly recognizable—a design that makes viewers think technology, insight, and high-quality content the moment they see it.

Here’s what matters most:
• Resolution must hold at 4K so I can crop, animate, and print without losing clarity.
• Black-and-red is my preferred palette, but I’m open to a smarter combination if you can justify why it lifts the brand.
• The artwork should translate well on both dark and light backgrounds and stay legible at thumbnail size.

Deliverables
• Primary logo in 4K PNG with transparent background
• Vector source file (AI or SVG) for future edits
• A 1:1 profile version and a wider banner-friendly variant
• Short color and font guide so I can keep my brand consistent across assets

If you can weave in subtle coding or video motifs without clutter, that’s a plus, but I’m equally happy with a clean wordmark if the typography feels fresh and professional. Show me anything that proves versatility—mock-ups on a YouTube banner or hoodie really help. Looking forward to seeing your creativity.
