Your Own Personal Logo-
A personal logo is a graphical representation of yourself. It could be your avatar or something that you would like attached to your business card or personal website. You can also use your logo in the letterhead of your personal letter or resume.
Choose colors and lines that will represent you. Colors and lines should speak about your personality. Example: warm colors may means that you are an active person. Solid lines may represent strength.
Design your logo as simple as possible so that it can easily be created and easily be recognized by anyone.
Here is your mission:
You will be designing your own personal logo. Using either your name or initials you will experiment and create a logo to use on your resume and other portfolio documents.
You will work in groups of two or three to brainstorm ideas. You will need to make at least 15 different ideas for a logo.
Next, in your groups select your top three choices, and bring those to your creative director(me)
We will discuss and decide if you are ready to move on
Next you will work those top three choices into at least three refined versions of each making variations of each design.
You will again bring your designs to the creative director and hopefully get final approval to move to the computer production phase of your design. If so, we will decide if you need illustrator, photoshop or both to create your design.

1. Is there some object or symbol associated with your profession that can be drawn with the letters in your name? 2. If there is an object or symbol related to your profession, how can you fit it into your name or initials? 3. Is one of your names a word or part of a word? 4. Can the letters in your (first and last) names overlap easily? 5. What about when written in cursive? 6. If not, try overlapping them anyway. 7. Or flip one letter backward and connect the letters or align their "backs". 8. Do your initials look similar when mirrored or placed at different angles? 9. Can one initial fit inside the other? 10. When all else fails, just put your name in a cool font. |
