Amazing Art: Logo Assignment

This week I was assigned to make a logo for my own company. I had to make 3 different types of logos; combination, typographic, and pictorial. The combination logo had to have a colour and black & white copy, the typographic logo had to have a black & white and colour copy, and the pictorial logo had to have a black & white, colour, and grayscale copy.

Analysis

My company’s name is called Animanic; my company makes music for anime TV shows and movies that are for young girl teenagers mostly. My style is simple, cute, and creative. I am a simple, neat, and nice person. The animal I did was the giant panda. The panda is a relaxed, peaceful and simple like me. Pandas are black and white bears; they have black fur on the ears, shoulder, muzzle, legs, and around the eyes. The rest of the panda is white. I did the panda second, because the first one which was a girl wearing earphones wasn’t really cute; also I felt that the girl was good but I though I could make another one even better in my option.

The logo I did was a panda with a crown. I used a cursive/hand writing font and I put a line at the bottom of the writing to make it a little fancy for the typographic/combination logo. I think that the pictorial color works the best, because you can see the crown’s/blush’s color and the logo is cuter without the writing. By knowing the colors, it compliments the black and white pretty well. I used bright colors (pink/yellow), because I didn’t want the panda to be plain I wanted it to be cute and balanced in color. My second logo was a girl wearing earphones. I used a cursive/handwriting font and I put two lines, one on the top and one on the bottom of the writing to make it a little fancy. I think the combination black & white logo works the best, because it feels really calm since the hair was blowing in the wind and the name blended in the picture.

When I look at this panda I feel warm and relaxed. I put the panda in my logo, because when you’re listening to music you usually feel relaxed and peaceful. And anime was created in Japan, so I picked an asian animal. By using black and white for the panda it makes the yellow and pink feel bright and warm, which creates a peaceful and relax feeling. Watching TV shows and movies makes a lot of people feel excited and comfortable, because everyone can relax, have some alone time or have fun with family/friends. I am aiming to get the same feeling in my logo. When I looked at the girl I felt that it had a little bit of a lonely and sad feeling, because the girl looked lonely.

In conclusion, I think that the pictorial color logo works the best, because when you change the size you can still see it. When you change it into a gray scale or black & white version it still steads out and looks good still. When it’s just the name it’s still steads out and still attractive. Same for the girl logo it still steads out when you take away the name or picture. I wished that I could change the name of my company, because it doesn’t really suit the logo as much as I thought. I decided to choose the panda logo, because the girl with earphones wasn’t really cute as much as the panda and it felt little lonely when I looked at it for a long time.
