Helvetica, and sans-serif as backups. For the heading fonts, I used Century Schoolbook

with Times New Roman and serif. I used padding around my first heading and my logoso that they wouldn’t be too close to other elements.

25% opacity. I repeated the process for the blue planet. I added the body copy and

LogoDescription:Company logos in different variations



Emily Kunz

Program(s)/Tools:Adobe Illustrator

Objectives:Create three completely different, original logos to fit a company or personal image that

will appeal to the audience.

Use only the Illustrator tools to create and draw logos. Process:

I used Adobe Illustrator. For the first logo, I downloaded a picture of a baton and

outlined it using the pen tool. I did the same process with the second logo except I traced

a lightsaber for the “p”. I downloaded music font and put the bass clef character next to

the “p”. I used the pen tool to clean it up. Then I reflected it vertically. In the third logo Iused the music text again to create the notes in the center.

Process:I downloaded Star Wars font and used that as the P and C in the first logo. I used line

tool to create the green part of the lightsaber and the handle. For the second logo, I traced

aroung a bass cleff. I flipped it so that it looked like a C. I used the line tool to create an

orange lightsaber and attached that to a letter P. For the third logo, I downloaded music

font so I could create the music note.

Emily Kunz

Program(s)/Tools:Adobe Illustrator/ Adobe InDesign

Objectives:Use the new logo to design consistent layouts for a business card and letterhead.

Keep designs simple with light watermarks and drop shadows and plenty of white space.

Use the basic tools in Illustrator & InDesign.

Process:I placed the logo in the top left of the stationary and added the contact information. I used

blue, teal, and indigo throughout to match the logo. Using the pen tool, I created three

curvy lines and changed them to match my color scheme. I put the effect of gradient

feather on it so that it would gradually fade. I did the same process for the bottom lines. I

expanded the logo and made it transparent to make the watermark.
