I chose to design a travel magazine guideline because I believe the combination of photo will look good in the cover. I wanted to created something different than just a person photo in the cover. I try to used different fonts and try to put information that can capture people attention.

Paris Eiffel Tower

For my Illustrator vector I chose a photo of Paris Eiffel Tower. I decided to use this image because I love the original picture. While I was completing my assignment I had some difficult time, including  every single details the image had. I try to include has much as I could to maintain the main idea of the photo “The Eiffel tower.” The image I chose is a perspective of the Eiffel Tower from the ground all the way to the top. My background is the sky; I decided to stay simple because I want to focus in the tower. I play a lot with colors in this image to give a different effects to the photo.

                 FINAL LOGO

The design of my logo is for a flowers shop.  The name of my company is watercolor because it represents the variety of colors that can be found in the flowers. The logo is based on a flower designed with the brush tool that can capture the attention of clients. In opinion my logo is simple but can clearly be  recognized because is unique. I try to do the letter W in a bigger size for it can also capture the attention of does who see the logo.

  LOGOS


The Chanel logo was designed by Coco Chanel herself in 1925, consists of two interlocked and opposing letters “C” for her name, “Coco Chanel”.The black color in the Chanel logo represents elegance, elitism and wealth. In my opinion this logo is worldwide known and no matter where you are when you see the logo you know it represent expensive fashion industry.

 
        
The four circles represent the 4 companies that were a part of the Auto-Union Consortium in 1932, namely, DKW, Horch, Wanderer and Audi. Audi logo is also recognized worldwide I believe is simple but very effective its well known no matter the place you are.


   The logo is a three-pronged star meant to symbolize universal motorization. The three prongs stand for land, water and air. The Mercedes-Benz name comes from Jellinek's daughters name, Mercedes, and Carl's last name, Benz.  In my opinion Mercedes logo represent  elegance and luxury. I consider is a 100% effective logo well known. 




Art Paul was the architect of the Playboy logo. The well-known bunny head sketch that wears a tuxedo bow tie has been in use since its inception.  According to Art Paul, the choice of rabbit in the Playboy logo comes naturally due to the animal’s “sexual connotation” and its “frisky and playful” nature. The Playboy logo is an embodiment of the mischievous and sensual feelings evoked by the furry mammal.In my opinion playboy is tends to be just for men, but even though it was creative just for men, woman and everyone knows what does that bunny logo mean is as been a very effective logo to capture the attention of everyone. 




The FedEx logo looks simple and it’s hard to see what could be hidden within it. But looking closely at the space between the ‘E’ and ‘X’ in the orange Ex shows an arrow pointing forward. This arrow represents moving forward toward to the future. After reading this I analyzed that fedex logo is very creative and very effective because is also a worldwide well known logo.
