Today you will be creating a logo for your very own production company. You will use this logo, or a video version of it (created later in this course) on all of your projects for the rest of the year. There are many applications and websites out there to help you. We will only be looking at a few of them.
STEP 1: (❗️) Learner Journal Entry - Read the "How To Create A Logo" article (see link below). Open your Google Document "Learner Journal". Create a NEW journal entry and write a paragraph (3-4 Sentences) to answer the following question(s):
Why Are Logo's Important - 18 November 2019
Please write a paragraph about why you think logo's are important for companies. From your reading, why do companies create logo's, and what type of logo do you want to create? What is the meaning behind the logo you imagine?
Make sure you use the "R.A.C.E.S." method when you answer the questions above in your journal.
R - Repeat the question, A- Answer the question, C - Cite Evidence supporting your answer, E - Explain Evidence or show Examples, S - Summarize your thoughts or conclusions.
(❗️) Create a LOGO using photos, drawing, or any other medium. Watch the video about why a LOGO is important "Why is a Professional Logo Important?" (Click Here). You should be able to create something with either program. I would suggest using the LogoGarden Application to start getting ideas, but to get a higher quality logo, you will need to use Inkscape (more information to follow tomorrow), or YouiDraw.com (See Below).
You can use the Free Logo Designer on LogoGarden to help you come up with an idea, but you will not be able to download your creation as a High Resolution Image. There are literally hundreds of other free websites to help you. Pick one! Once you have designed it on LogoGarden, try to use a drawing program or PowerPoint to recreate your logo. Once you have created it and saved it as a PICTURE, you should be able to use it to create all kinds of projects for your new prodution company. HAVE FUN!
Step By Step Directions
Step 1: READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS ABOVE
Step 2: Review videos attached to get an idea of what a logo is for, the types of logo's, and why you should create one for your new production company.
Step 3: Hand Sketch your ideas for your new logo on blank paper to give yourself some creative time to make your logo come alive on paper before trying to create it online.
Step 4: Go to LogoGarden (See Link Above) and use the Logo Designer to create a Low-Resolution logo for your production studio. When you have created a Low Resolution version of your logo, download it, and Upload it to your Google Drive for future use.
Step 5: Go to DesignEVO (See Link Above) and use the Logo Designer to create a Medium-Resolution logo for your studio, with the same overall design theme.
Step 6: Go to YouiDraw.com online and create a High Resolution version of your logo with the same design theme.
Step 7: Make sure to Upload ALL your logo's to your Google Drive and SHARE them with Mr. S (harvey.scribner@techfreire.org) for credit.
YOU MUST CREATE A NEW FOLDER IN YOUR GOOGLE DRIVE, NAME IT "(LAST NAME) LOGOS", ADD ALL THREE (3) OF YOUR LOGOS, AND SHARE IT WITH MR. SCRIBNER (harvey.scribner@techfreire.org) FOR CREDIT!
