Vector Image

For my vector image project I decided to recreate a picture of my dog baci :)

Exquisite Corpse

For this assignment I decided to pick the sketch of the cat with big shoes. I really wasn't a fan of the regular sketch so I decided to alternate it. I thought of the idea when I was watching the movie Batman, and also figured it went with a Halloween theme since its October. I would like to think I gave my drawing some super powers and strength. I tried to use many of the tools we learned in illustrator and really apply it to this assignment. I may have perfected the little flaws here and there but overall I am happy with the end result!

Logo Critiques

Logo 1:

This logo was my favorite out of the 10 that I drew. I liked it because the "I" was the best fitting to be different, but noticeable  One of the problems that I noticed with trying to create different versions of this logo was that the letter "I" did not have many options to be written. It is not the easiest letter to play around with to make something different and noticeable. I decided to draw a lowercase "I" because I believed that it was the easiest to be familiar with. While all of my logos are very simple due to the type of company this does a good job with being different.

Logo 3:

I really didn't like the layout of this logo. When I think about it being versatile it does not do it's job at all. The layout of the words themselves are just not typical to be used because of the upside down "L" shape that they make.  It also isn't memorable since it's too simple and unorganized.

Logo 4:

I thought this logo was memorable because of the look it had, it was different from other logos I had designed but in the end I thought about it being hard for others to read or recreate on anything. I liked the font shape that I used, after drawing this logo I realized that a script type logo was what I was going to need in order for it to reflect the company's high class cliental. 

Logo 7:

After finishing this logo I decided that the "I" could be vert useful in creating my logo but I would have to be careful that it didn't cross a meaning with information or something like that. Seeing that the "I" could be a symbol of my logo drew me to think that I needed to make it stand out more so it could be memorable and versatile. 

Logo 10:

I am not sure what I was trying to accomplish with this logo because it isn't even a good logo it's more of a title on a book. I new that this logo would defiantly not appeal to my audience. There was nothing special to it that would stand my company apart from the others. Even if I tried to spice it up there was just no special feature to it.

After all of these logos were completed I decided that I was going to take certain aspects I liked from some of them and combine them into a logo that I really loved. None of these made it to be my exact logo, but they were all taken into the foundation to create it. Since they were black and white sketches I thought deeply about the color choices that would reflect the company as well as making the logo pop. My target audience was the higher class, so going with a royal blue and gold made the perfect match  and deciding to make the "I" a little different and adding a large watermark would make the logo memorable. In the end I am really happy with the way my logo came out.
