Assignment #7 - Logos


The next assignment we had to complete using Adobe Illustrator was designing and creating a series of logos. Graphis design is not something that I've delved much into, but I had a lot of fun designing several ideas in my sketchbook for logos, and I'm just a bit disappointed that I had to drop some of them (not that I would've had the time to finish 5 of these... so I can't complain too much!) The three logos you see here include a ring shop, an aquatic emporium, and perhaps my favorite, a golf-themed sports bar.

Perhaps the biggest new tool I put to use with these logos was the Live Paint feature, which allows you to add color to areas in-between closed strokes. Each of the three logos made heavy use of it. Other cool tools I got to use this time that weren't as useful during the calligram assignment included the effect gallery and the different brush patterns. I also had to do a bit of outside research for certain parts of these logos, such as the grassy effect on the Green Tee logo or the lowered Line Paint opacity on the Pristine logo, but I think it helped to make the final products even better!
