Good afternoon, today we will begin by using the availble media and drawing to music. I have provided paper. Simply listen to the music and allow your mind to inspire your hand to draw. I will play different genres of music and all just small segments of each song.
Logo update. Below are some of the ideas I sent away and this is the response he sent me:
None of these are what I want, keep trying.
From a local graphic designer:
Here is how I usually handle working on a logo:
-I start off by analyzing the clients wants and needs, in this case he is quite
specific. I have highlighted the areas in his e-mail that I feel are important.
-Next I begin working on ideas from his info, taking into account some of
my own ideas. In addition I will often search the web for related logos - not
to copy anything but to see what looks good and what doesn’t. I will note
certain aspects of designs that I like.
-I usually try to submit several drafts of the logo to find out what the client
likes and dislikes, including different fonts and colors. (I am not to fond of
the above designs, but it gives you an idea of what I am talking about).
-After spending time tweaking and playing around with the drafts I would
submit them to the client. (Keep in mind that although you want to give the
client options, don’t submit too many as this will just overwhelm him. I
usually submit 2 or 3 designs.) Also, make sure you ask the client to reply
about what they like and dislike about the designs as this will help you
narrow down a design that the client will be happy with.
-After receiving feedback from the client I try to round it down to one
design that incorporates all the aspects he liked. Sometimes they love one
of the designs and I am good to go, but sometimes they don’t like any of
them and I have to start all over again.
Hope this helps you out.
P.S. Make sure you always use a vector based program to create your
logos, or else you are going to end up re-creating them again!
