Making a logo isn't very difficult. It is, however, not very detailed art. I had to stop myself from thinking the way I usually do when it came to making art. I did need to research and see other companies logos to make mine. While gathering I realized that about every logo looked the same. My client wanted me to make one similar, but I decided to instead make something different. I made this decision to try to separate us from the rest. I also decided that having the American colors would be beneficial so even without the word America on top people can tell who we are and where we are from. I believe the dimonds aren't the exact same widthand it feels awkward when working with it and I tried to fix it but it ended up being a bust as no matter what I did I couldn't seem to fix it but it isn't really noticeable just looking at it. I didn't really change anything from the previous design, but I didn't add stars to it because I didn't think it would work so I kept it out.
Beginning to create my logo I decided to make a rough sketch in Adobe ideas. With my plan of action figured out I then got on Adobe illustrator and started to make it. I actually ran into a problem really quickly as I needed to think if I wanted the colors to be in rgb. I decided go rgb because it would be easier for my color scheme. After I did this I realized that the shape tool can't make dimonds. So I had to do it by hand. |
