Module 5
1. Creating my logo was very stressful but interesting and fun at the same time. I think what took me the longest time was figuring out whether I wanted to use my full name or just the initials of my name. I didn't want to use too sharp edges because I am a very gentle person and I wanted my logo to represent that. Choosing the colors wasn't very hard because I have so many favorite colors and I really like the soft colors I chose.
2. As I was creating my logo, or thinking about creating my logo, I was thinking about my favorite things. I was also thinking about my name and whether or not I could incorporate that into my finishing product. I didn't want to put so many things in the logo because I didn't want it to look stuffed. Keeping it simple and soft was my main priority.
3. The most important discovery I made while creating my logo is that logos are very, very hard to make. I've learned to appreciate all of the logos for all of these companies that we see around us on a day-to-day basis. Now I look at logos we've grown accustomed to seeing, like the UPS logo or St. Jude's Hospital for Children's logo, and wonder how long it took for them to be created.
4. I really liked the videos for the logos because of how informative they were. In the first video they were talking about the process of making logos and how they start with what the companies want people to see in their logos. They talked about capturing the essence of their business and how the people who make the logos then have to brainstorm. A lot of people are involved in creating just one logo, which I found to be extremely interesting. I really liked the videos.
