Design Project: Three Logos
Create three distinct logos for fictional products in the area of food, cleaning, or personal care items. The graphic styles are up to you, however they should show contrasting treatments. At least one of the logos is to include an illustrated subject/element to accompany the lettering or typographic design. Any raster art must be executed at an appropriately high resolution.
For class on Monday February 24, have your three chosen fictional product names and visual research for each. The visual research must include 5 or more examples of existing logos that you will use to help focus the visual vocabulary and techniques for your own logo versions.
In class exercise Wed 26. You will recreate a sample lettering treatment in Illustrator; we will also spend time on ideation for the design.
Final Artwork for three logos, printed & mounted due March 5.
