Logo Project Reflection
















1. How does your logo design represent the after school club or activity?
          My logo design represents the after school club by showing unity through the mic stand traveling through the text, acting as an "L" for the word "Vocal" and "Club." In addition, this design expresses that people will be singing and not be judged by their voice. By only seeing the woman's silhouette, it makes the person anonymous.  

2. Which process was most helpful in creating your design?
          The process that was most helpful was when we had to observe a power point about mixed logos. When there would be text and a picture in the logo, but just enough to make the logo appealing and understandable. 

3. What was the most challenging aspect about the logo project?
          The most challenging aspect about this project was taking different pictures, texts, and using the Gimp tools to create a cohesive and appealing logo. I had to merge different pictures together and add on to it, as well as, frame it around the text. I am still learning Gimp, but I am slowly getting the hang of how to best utilize the tools offered. 

4. Are you satisfied with your final design? Why is your logo successful? If you are not satisfied with your design, what would you like to change?
          I am satisfied with my design because I was able to incorporate everything that I wanted. This logo is successful because it shows that people are singing with other people. The "L" shows the unity between the singers and express the non-judgement place with the silhouette. In addition, this is successful because it is simple enough that anyone could understand it and its detailed enough. Also the font works with the part that I drew in, which was the mic stand because they both have serifs.
