Week 5

The logo project is harder than I thought it'd be... I've been struggling a bit because I've been caught up with a ton of other work for my classes along with actual work because my store manager was gone and we had to fill in hours with three different managers including myself. It's been hell these past two weeks. Anyway, I was finally able to finish my sketches for my red panda logo designs. I don't think any of them portray what I originally wanted to do, a video gaming design company. It's kind of hard to portray that with a red panda. I hope that we will meet up with the people who were in our critique group on D2l on monday because I would really enjoy some feedback to help me along. Like I said, it's been hell lately. I would also like to focus on just fixing everything. I've never been good at creating names for anything either. I hope they will be able to help me...

I think this logo design is very effective visually. The only thing I can think of that could get confusing is that is kind of shows off that it could only be something for vegans and vegetarians. I had to read what and who the actual logo design was geared towards. It's towards children so they will eat more veggies and fruit. However, I think the name for it is kind of a bad idea... Let me sneak all the veggies and fruit in anything and everything for everyone. It doesn't seem geared towards kids at all... Just.. everyone.

Week 2

So, the second week of classes! Fantastic. (I promise that wasn't supposed to be sarcastic haha). I'm actually excited for this class since we'll mainly be making a brand for ourselves! Well, for a company that we make. We'll see how the rest of the semester goes though!

For our first assignment and project, Jerri asked us to research words that have the same meaning and that are spelled differently or words that sound the same but have different meanings. When I was searching for words, I decided that I'd go straight to the internet (like I usually do for projects) and try to find homonyms. I thought that searching just random homonyms would give my mind a head start. However, I found a website that would just generate random homonyms and I just kept clicking and clicking to find the ones I think would work very well for the project. I decided on the word "wild". We'll see what happens next with it!
