Finished The Logo Remakes


Hey guys I finally finished the 2 logo remakes. The first logo I finished was the TY Toy one. If you dont know who TY is, it is the company who made the infamous Beanie Babies.. yes, I've owned a beanie baby... ok maybe it was 3 of them jeez.. But yea I changed it from having a heart to having a paw print. Then I put a circle around it... It sounds simple.. But its effective.

Then once I got that done, I got the Captain D's logo done. I took a ship wheel and turned the colors of it blue with red handles. Their is a white blank middle. In the middle, I have the Captain D's Seafood text colored black and arched. It's pretty legit.

Well that's it guys.

Keep it fresh,
Brian

Making New Logos.. AGAIN! lol

Today Prof. Speyers went over what essentially makes up a logo. We interpreted some well known logos and he went over how they were well/badly designed. One thing he told us was how Coke changed it's can layout a while back and then the company ended up losing up to $1Billion because of it.. yea... thats not good lol. He then showed us a few logos he had come up with in the past for companies.

Later, he assigned us a new project where the students have to design a new logo that could be better than already existing logos. I chose to redo the Captain D's and TY Toys logo's.

Hopefully they turn up awesome lol.
Aight, well I gotta go.

Stay fresh,
Brian

New Project!!

On Tuesday, last class, Prof. Speyers gave the class a whole new project!! whoopieeee!!.. The project consists of researching anything related to computers (Apple, Microsoft, Printers, SoundCards, etc.) and make a PowerPoint presentation based on the subject you choose, while implicating our graphic design skills we've gained so far in the course. Of course with my luck, all of the good topics were taken so I was forced to choose a "not so cool" one.. I chose CRT Monitors.... yea.. those are the big, bulky old computer screens that you would now find in a public library or in your grandparents house. At least I'll be learning something new while researching about them..

So yea, thats pretty much it so far.

Keep it fresh,
Brian
