The first font I have chosen to use is called ‘MONA SHARK’ I have chosen this font because it fits in with my pop art theme. Plus it is visually engaging.

I then typed in the first part of Annie’s name. I chose to have the word written in large letters as the logo needs to be big and engaging.

I then saved the screenshot of the ‘dafont’ website as a picture in my area. I named the file ‘ANN.’

Next I opened up the saved picture as a new file on Photoshop. As you can see there is already another file open. This is the file I will edit the logo onto.

I then selected the crop tool for the tool bar. This is so I could crop out the rest of the picture just so I have the word ‘ANN’ left.

Using the select tool from the tool bar (circled in blue) I dragged the remaining cropped picture onto my editing page.

To edit on Photoshop you have to create layers. It is easier to name the layers yourself so you know exactly what you are editing. I have named this layer ‘ANN.’

As you can see the image is tiny. So to make it bigger, I have gone to the drop down menu, selected ‘transform’ and then clicked on ‘scale.’ To resize your image without it getting blurry you hold down shit whilst you scale it to the correct size you are after.

The image is now at the size that I wanted.

I then went back onto ‘dafont’ and chose a font called ‘JACKS CANDLESTICK’ I liked this font because it is big and bold and will make the exclamation mark stand out against the MONA SHARK font.

The exclamation mark I chose is the top one. I then saved this screenshot as an image in my file. The file is called ‘exclamation.’

I then cropped out the image until I was left with just the exclamation mark. To open this file and create the cropped image I did the same as I did for ‘ANN.’

I scaled the image to the be same size as the word ‘ANN’ I have chosen to use an exclamation mark instead of the letter ‘I’ because it sticks to my pop art theme.

I went back to the ‘MONA SHARK’ font to add the ‘E’ for Annie’s name. I again chose the letter to be large so it is the same size as the rest of the logo.

This was the end result. I then saved this screenshot to my files as an image and called the file ‘E.’

I again scaled cropped the image using the cropping tool and then the select tool to drag it onto my editing file. I then scaled the ‘E’ to get it to the same size as the rest of the logo.

This is what my logo now looks like.

I then selected the paint tool, which I have circled in red. The tool at the bottom that I have circled in green is what I used to chose which colour I wanted.

This is what appears so I can choose the colour I want my font.

I choose a bright yellow colour because yellow is a key colour that occurs in pop art.

This is my final logo product.
