Hand In

You will be handing in the following:
- 10 sketches (a picture of your paper)
- 5 vector designs

- colour versions of final design (minimum 5)

* 1 finalized design (this will be the same as one of the 5) of 1 black and white and 1 version in colour

​

As much as I appreciate simplistic designs, you will need to showcase your skill set. You are not allowed to simply just find a typeface and type something out and call that a company logo. You can however create your own custom font using shapes or the pen tool in Illustrator. 

You must take into consideration the design principles. Make justifications to why you created your logo. This write up can be in your sketchbook or handed in electronically with your logo.
