Eco Academy, the logo re-work

-

 

 

I have uploaded two pictures of the logo which I created before. On the new layer I drew a rectangle shape and placed the logo inside that shape. That was my base and I started to re-create the logo.
The name of the school is placed in the two blocks and I drew the roots back .
 
The font should be simple and clear without any additional details as the tree and the colours would be also important in the logo.



I know the font should be bold and simple, however, it wasn't easy to chose the right size as the word "Academy" is much longer then "Eco" and looks completely different in the block.


My previous design helped me with the colours and I started working on the logo for the houses in the Eco Academy.  The green and yellow shape is based on the circle as I wanted to keep the project simple and use primary colours. I draw everything on the separate layers, once I was happy with the effect I clicked "marge down" and all the shapes were glued together. There will be four houses, so I duplicated the logo and I started working on colours. Red for fire, light blue for the Air , brawn for the Earth and blue for the Water



In results I have logo with 4 different colour which is interesting. I would use any of them, depends of the background. For example if the background of the poster will be blue, then I would use logo with the red colour on it.

    This seems much more realised than when we spoke - the simplicity is good up to a point, could there be other elements/colours in the background of the logo (that fit each house) rather than a white background? I'm thinking in terms of using each logo for different elements - if you are using the logo for clothing or on a lanyard, how will they have to be different for each part of your campaign? On a lanyard, would they be even more simple? As a badge on a jumper, would they need a coloured background and so on?

Eco Academy Tote Bag mock up

-
Image
 Finally I was bereave  enough to experiment with the Photoshop to create the tote bag for the school. I  started with the mock up picture which I found on the free mock up website, and I downloaded it on the laptop.  After transferring the picture to the Photoshop I used a clone tool to remove the design which was already there, however a few minutes after I have finished designing the bag I learned how to do it in completely different way. I knew I am doing something wrong as it took me to long .    I used the same free background logo which I created earlier in Procreate . I fit it to the tote bag size and I saved the picture in jpg, choosing "file" and " save as"  on the left top corner . I am happy with the results, the picture is sharp in a good quality.

 In my project I will draw illustrations to a short story for children, therefore this research will help me to find information and answer to the big question: " What's make the great children book illustration? "  There is many factors what I need to consider before I will start drawing: - the age group.  - type an style of illustrations suitable for this age group - the book style - how many illustration I will include in my page. - what to avoid in the illustrations for children To decide in what style I will draw the pictures is also very important. Is that will be more cartoony or scary or is the pictures are relevant to the story. For example soft and gentle illustrations would not be perfect for a story about monsters. Go to the library an look at the real children's book is a good place to find the inspirations.  Is important to decide how many illustrations will be included in the book and what type of illustrations they are. That will affect to overal layo...

project plan schedule

During the meeting with the Tutor ,we have discussed everything regarding to my project. I have introduced my ideas and my first sketches to the book. "The magic of the amulet" is a story written by my friend's daughter. There are three main characters - Abby the little girl who lives on the tropical Island with her friends: Olivia the dolphin and Patrick the crab. I already know how they will look like. I need to think how to draw the Island and mermaids. In my head it will be a magical and colorful,  fantasy World.  My first idea was to draw 4 pictures based on the story and to make front and back cover. The Tutor advice was to create two more pages as the story will be more interesting and easier to read for the children. We talk trough every page and I am convinced now that is good idea to draw two additional pages. I will use Procreate and Flipsnack and I will make a mock book  to be able to see how will my book look in real life. I was so excided with this idea , th...
