NEWS UNIT: CREATING A LOGO

Not that I have ever done this before, but here goes creating a logo for our final name choice FilmHouse news (hopefully).

I used photoshop here with which I have had some experience with in the past at school. I have made a couple of options so far:


This being a much more simple version to start off with.
This being a much busier option using 3D fonts.

The general consensus at this stage is that I should tone it down and go for something more simple that stands out, like the ticket only with writing on it. 

Its got to be something to remember not something with too much for the brain to take it at a quick glance like the CocaCola, Nike or Apple.  

So I left it a day and then returned to the process, turns out getting the right logo is not as easy at it may seem. There were so many different drafts I went through on photoshop not to mention the ones Patricia brought to the table. As I have had input from each person in the group I have got lots of different options in fact about 12 overall. 
This is what I ended yesterday on.




As shown below I made a lot of small adjustments throughout trying to find the right amount of what we need for a logo.
So these are all theoretically options at the moment as we haven't made a final decision on which to use. However the logo below is the one I finished today on and the one that fits pretty well with the image of our news program.

  1. Great work Alex - will this final logo be the colour palette for your web pages?
