LOGO Design

1.)  When I found out that I needed to create my own logo, I honestly felt a little challenged but I felt excited.  I like doing hands on work, and I was ready to sit down and create a logo that would describe myself.

2.)  The creative process for this project allowed me to open up and really think of of things that reflect who I am as a person.  I started to brainstorm, and I started to write down words and statements ("im not yet complete, im always adding things...") that lead me to think of a PUZZLE.  I believe that my life is a puzzle.  The puzzle idea took off as I started to create my logo...

3.) The most imporatant discovery that I came up with when creating my logo was really the idea of a puzzle piece. When a puzzle piece came into my head I took off and realized the whole foundation for my logo.  I really discovered my life process.  My life is full of puzzle piece's.  Some have come together, and some have not.  My puzzle is not complete yet and that is why you can see in my logo that some puzzle pieces are missing out of my "K."  I also realized that it is okay that I still have not come up with all the pieces, but really, that is how life is supposed to be.

4.) From the reading, the videos, and the powerpoint I have found that the most important information is how a graphic designer creates a logo.  I understand the creative process used like brainstorming, and I understand that several steps that go into a final logo.  It takes time, and a lot of mind searching to be able to grasp alot of information and put it into a little logo.  Its amazing how a little logo contains so much content, it looks easy to design but really I now fully understand that major, time consuming, process of graphic design.  I found the videos to be informational and also interesting.  I am very interested in digital media, and seeing the image process and new media being used was very cool to see.
