Shawn's Level 2 MEDIA BLOG: Unit 16 My final logo Breif step by step and why did I make it.

For my final assignment for my brief I was assigned to gather around all of the logos that I drawn and chose the one that I will be doing for my final logo of this brief.

The logo brand am going to make is Istudio.

Step 1 open above illustaor and open up a new file.

Step 2 Make a new layer and get the circle by using the eclipse tool, drag it around and then change the colour to black for the fill. Also add the stroke on the white and the size for stroke should be 2mm.

Step 3 Now make two rectangle shapes. Add a stroke on both of these and the size for stroke should be 1mm. Don't fill in the rectangle shapes!!!!

Step 4 Now get the line segment tool and start making a bunch of diangoe shapes on the two long rectangles while the middle rectangle make a straight line.

Step 5 Now get the text tool and type STUDIO in capital letters.

Then change the text size to 37 and also change the character to Apple Chancery.
Also change the size of the O to 64pt

Step 6 Now make a circle by using the eclipse tool.

Click on shape, click on the pie start angle and change in to 180%.
Copy and paste the same circle and do the same thing but in reverse.

Now change the first half circle to while and leave the second one white.

Step 7. Open a new layer and get a rectangle tool. Make sure the rectangle cover the whole page while doing it. Then fill the rectangle red. Then drag the layer that used to make that red rectangle to the bottom so you can see all of your other layers.

Step 8 Click on the window, go to symbol, click on vector grime, then click on symbol sprayer tool and spray the 4 corners of the background.

Final step hold click on the symbol sprayer tool so you can access the symbol sprayer size tool.
Now click on the direct selection tool. Lock all other layer apart from one you just sprayed. Now drag the selection tool all around the logo. Then go back to the symbol sprayer size tool. Make the Vector Grime smaller by clicking on it as well as holding alt.

Do this for all four sides.

Now you finished the logo.

This is the final design

There are the amount of layers that I used

How did I get ideas for this logo?

Well for starters I decided to take two of the logos that I researched on the Internet and one of my original designed logo and ultimately I decided to draw my final logo from scratch using those logo ideas. Also my design of the logo was based from a company called BBFC which they use circle logos on they dvds and I repeat they style so people who view designs from IStudio will get better recognisable from the media industry.

Some research ideas from the net.
