Logo Final Draft

The inspiration for my logo comes from the I.T. field which my logo was created for. I.T. firms commonly use symbols like the one I created to represent their company’s.  They are often some variation of my design which looks like a circuit or wires creating a network. I created the logo by using the shape tools to create the basic circles and squares. Then I used the rounded rectangle to create the background. To create the curved lines connecting the shapes, I used the lessons taught in the Lynda tutorials. Originally I had to paint the lines by hand as they weren’t a shape and couldn’t be filled, however, In my final draft I was able to figure out how to connect the lines to create a shape that can be filled. Thus i was able to get rid of the sloppy look it had previously. I also purposely made the lines uneven as suggested in peer reviews. Lastly I followed another peer suggestion to move my slogan along the edge (though I am not exactly sure if this was what they had in mind, however i like the way it looks. To conclude, I feel like my final draft is a major improvement over my rough draft, as now it looks much cleaner and a bit more technical and uses more of the space within the border.
