Attempting to invent new techniques for every new logo is a losing strategy the best logos are based on fundamentals done right — conveying a large message within a small, simple visual design.CORE X PAVING THE WAY IN ACH X CENTURY DESIGN FIRM WEBSTER DESIGN Associates ART DIRECTOR DAVE WEBSTER DESIGNER / ILLUSTRATOR ANDREY NAGORNY CLIENT. Fitting in all of the necessary facets and considering all of the constraints can be a challenge for any designer. Here you will be shown how to create a basic vector logo that has the correct resolution and color mode.Despite the inherent simplicity, logo design can be surprisingly difficult. Although diving into graphic design is an intense journey to start, it is surprisingly simple to learn the basics of Adobe Illustrator. The ability to create your own logo for your resume, website, or product sits in the palm of your hand.
This course has manually added closed captions for most sections (instead of only auto-generated).In this tutorial, I’ll walk you through the process of designing a logo for a film studio in Adobe Illustrator. Was previously managing editor at two graphic design magazines, one of which focused on Illustrator. Done freelance graphic design work for about 20 years.
Set your fill to “none” and pick color #0FBBC7 for your stroke. Enter 210px for both the width and height and hit “OK”. Pick the ellipse tool (“L”) and click the canvas to open the ellipse window. Your approach could be different I am just showing you one way to do it.We’ll start by making the film roll.
Enter an 80px width and a 100px for the height and click “OK” to draw a rectangle. Label this layer as “Frames”.Select the rectangle tool (“M”) and click the canvas to open the rectangle window. Then, go to “Object” > “Expand Appearance” to convert the strokes into shapes. Now, go to “Object” > “Path” > “Offset Path” and offset the path by “-85px” to make a smaller stoke inside it, as shown below.
Now, select both the layers and hit “Minus Front” in the Pathfinder Panel (Shift + Ctrl + F9).To get rid of the central part of “Wings”, select the frames and wings layers and pick the shape builder tool (Shift + “M”). Label this layer as “Wings”.Next, draw a circle using the ellipse tool that’s the same size as the outer circular stroke just below the “Wings” layer created in Step 6. Apply the following settings.While the shape is still selected, go to “Object” > “Expand Appearance” to modify the shapes. Then, drag the bottom-right anchor point as shown below.Select this new shape and go to “Effect” > “Distort & Transform” > “Transform”.
Offset the path by “-14px”. To accomplish this, hover the tool over the bars one by one and press the “Alt” key while clicking to delete them.Now, create a new layer below the rest of the layers and draw a 178px by 178px circle on it using fill color #414143.Select the ellipse and go to “Object” > “Path” > “Offset Path”. The technique is the same as explained in Step 8.Select the wings and bars layers and delete the bars area from the “Wings” layer using the shape builder tool (Shift + “M”).
Enter 8px for the radius to make their corners rounded.Now, go to “Object” > “Expand Appearance” to modify the shapes and draw two small circles as shown below.Next, select the two circles and go to “Object” > “Path” > “Offset Path”. Expand both the fill and stroke to convert them into shapes.Now, select following two paths and go to “Effect” > “Stylize” > “Round Corners”. Set its fill to “none” and set a stroke of #ED6B48 with a 16pt weight.Draw the following paths to complete the bicycle.Select all these paths and go to “Object” > “Expand”. Now, drag and position it over the left side using the selection tool (“V”) as shown below.Select the pen tool (“P”) and make the path shown below.
Lastly, select the text layers and go to “Object” > “Expand” to convert them into shapes. I’ve used the “Grand Hotel” font mentioned above in the resources.To complete the logo, I added the founding date and two thin rectangles at the sides. To achieve this, select all of the layers and delete all the paths inside the white ellipse areas using the shape builder tool (Shift + “M”).Select the type tool (“T”) to add the company name using #414143 as your fill color.
Let me know what you think.
