Logos

For this project we had to create 3 logos for 3 different brands. I created logo for a gym, a radio show, and a law firm. I got these ideas by using resources I had, my mom owns a gym so I used her name and ideas for her gym. My high school has a radio show and I used the names of one of the student shows as the name on my project and I used my previous knowledge of working on and with the radio for the images. Finally, the idea for the law firm was used just because I find that stuff interesting. This project was not as difficult as it seemed at first. Having the knowledge of the pen tool and many different things I could do with the fonts and words really helped a lot.

Calligram

For this project we had to create a calligram, which is creating a picture using only words. With the use of illustrator and the techniques we learned in class I was able to make a design that I think is pretty cool. I used a picture of Marcus Kruger from the Chicago Blackhawks as my reference, and used words that had to do with hockey, or the Blackhawks in general. I really enjoyed this project, I struggled a little with placement and how to have a good use of values but other than that I really like the way mine turned out.
