Analyzing Logos

Most Americans know what Starbucks is, but if you don’t their logo is very informative and straight to the point. Everyone knows that iconic goddess woman on every coffee cup. Also, they are always consistent with their color green that is always associated with Starbucks coffee. In this logo they display the name of the company, the symbol, which is the woman, and then the text Coffee, which tells us what the product is. Also, the use of stars is one of their symbols, and it is consistent throughout this logo with the star on the woman’s head and the two stars on the sides of the circle. I think one of the great features of this logo is how everything is rounded to flow with the circle. The text and the woman are both draw on a curve to flow and unify the circle logo.

Weekly Reflection 6

This week was fun! The assignments are getting more challenging, but with spring break next week it is easier to get them done. I love Illustrator, and I have been eager to learn more on my own time about the tools and options.

Weekly Reflection 5

This week I really enjoyed. I thought it was a lot of fun learning more about Illustrator and all the paint and pen tools. I also loved creating new colors and gradients. Creating colors and gradients makes the images more custom.

Weekly Reflection 4

This week we worked on our Photoshop mini project, and I have to say it sort of scared me at first. Once I started working on it I realized that I had learned more than I thought and I could actually apply all of those tools and effects to my project. There is still a lot to learn, but overall I enjoyed working in Photoshop and I feel like I could work on it by myself now.
