Homework

Create a black and white symbol for yourself, one that embodies your identity as a professional.

• RESEARCH, RESEARCH, RESEARCH.
  We will be creating a symbol logo. Take a look at the definitions and pros/cons of these different logo types:
  • Definitions:
    • The LogoFactory
    • Elf Design
  • Examples:
    • Symbol or Graphic
    • Wordmark or Text-based
    • Combination
• Write down 10 words that you use to describe yourself as a designer or just a person.
• Think about what kind of image you want to project. Is your style conservative or edgy or somewhere in between? How do you want to differentiate yourself from others? What makes you special? These will all be factors in developing your logo.
• Make sketches of a symbol logo that is recognizable, simple and reflects your values. Make sure others could describe your logo with at least 2 of those 10 words you use to describe yourself (see above).
• Bring in at least 3 hand drawn versions to scan in.
• DO NOT use the following in your logo design:
  • your name or initials
  • eyes
  • paintbrush, palette, pencil
  • globe
  • computer
  • key
  • light bulb
  • CMYK color swatches
