It fascinates me to see the influence branding as a whole has on the image of a company, person or product. In junior year, my end of the year project was researching branding and logo design and later creating a logo for a non-profit at Los Altos High School, Club TEN.<\/p>\n<p>I started with just critiquing the original Club TEN logo which looked very corporate and harsh. So I thought of what their image was and what they wanted people to feel when they saw the logo. I was also careful in trying to create a logo which was minimalist and could easily be reproduced on posters, t-shirts, and even business cards.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-63 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ElenaR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Untitled-drawing-300x208.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"208\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ElenaR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Untitled-drawing-300x208.png 300w, https:\/\/www.freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ElenaR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Untitled-drawing-768x534.png 768w, https:\/\/www.freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ElenaR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Untitled-drawing.png 973w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>It was quite and endeavor to undertake and I was quite proud of the finished product. However, after not taking a look at it in a few months and having done two other major design projects I can spot where I went wrong. Now that I am also more familiar with the Adobe Creative Cloud programs I can also recall what I should&#8217;ve don from a technical stand point. I will compare and contrast my growth at the end.<\/p>\n<p>This year I did two major design projects: creating a poster for the Freestyle Academy Mid Year Exhibition and the consumer product project.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-pdfemb-pdf-embedder-viewer\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ElenaR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/lemonade2.pdf\" class=\"pdfemb-viewer\" style=\"width:500px;height:500px;\" data-width=\"500\" data-height=\"500\" data-toolbar=\"bottom\" data-toolbar-fixed=\"off\">lemonade2<\/a><\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-65\" src=\"http:\/\/www.freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ElenaR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/KVITKA-Logo-300x264.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"264\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ElenaR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/KVITKA-Logo-300x264.png 300w, https:\/\/www.freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ElenaR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/KVITKA-Logo-768x676.png 768w, https:\/\/www.freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ElenaR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/KVITKA-Logo-1024x901.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ElenaR\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/KVITKA-Logo.png 1424w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>These three projects are visually distinct. They set different moods and evoke different emotions. From a technical standpoint The poster and red logo are far more advanced. In both i integrated using Adobe Indesign and Illustrator. I would go back and forth between the two programs, editing text and formatting them so that the alignment of different elements was dynamic and cohesive. \u00a0Meanwhile in the first logo I stuck to using Illustrator and working \u00a0with just the functions available there. In terms of style, the last two are more refined and it is clear that I have a better understanding of the elements of design and how to use them effectively in logo and poster design. The greatest pit fall of the Club TEN logo was that I didn&#8217;t explore the capabilities of the programs enough and I focused too much on trying to make a trendy looking logo rather than one that stands out and speaks for itself as a logo should.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Logo Design Logo design and branding are a hidden passion of mine.
