Logo Criteria

Personal Logo Design
Your logo design should reflect something about you, your personality, interests, abilities and skills through colours, font, symbolism, arrangement of elements, and design.

We are using Adobe Illustrator as a tool to construct the logos. You are going to become familiar with the text tool, character window, the fill and stroke, colour and swatch palettes, create outlines abilities, the effects menu choices.

In the end you are to have developed your idea visually and then simplified it so that it is easy to recognize and remember. Include the 5 Principles: Simple, Memorable, Timeless, Versatile, and Appropriate.
