Illustrator Assignment_1, Due October 9
Choose something you love and create a series of logos for it (at least 3). Anything goes – a person/place/thing you love, or even an existing brand that you think could use an upgrade. You should not be simply adjusting or adding to an existing logo, but making them from start to finish.
Upload files as a blog post along with a brief explanation of the inspiration behind your assignment.
Check out this blog with great examples of brand identities from around the world.
!! Extra Credit !! Create an image which showcases your logo on an item which you might actually find it on in the real world (ie: a storefront window, bottle label, screen etc.) Include files at the end of your blog post.
