Studio Production - Creating the Logo

Today Lex and I set to design the logo for the show, we had all the preferred colours and ideas, also a finalised name for the show. The design was a silhouette of a man and a speech bubble coming out of this mouth, like a text message bubble, with the words, "What You Sayin". Lex created the first half putting in the silhouette and speech bubble onto a plain green background. He cut round them to ensure they are smooth, he then, after we decided on a font, imported the words in the speech bubble and made them slightly pixilated at the end of each letter. I then took over and created a drop shadow around the speech bubble to make it more 3D and stand out. I then kind of by mistake created a new background when Ruby suggested I put the silhouette on an angle instead on straight on. I place it in the bottom left corner and by doing so it dragged the background with it showing a different shade go green behind it, I liked this so kept it. I also changed the colour of the speech bubble to white and the text to purple as it made the words stand out more also we couldn't have a blue speech bubble like and iMessage because of copy write issues.



I like the logo but if I had to create it again I would have put a little bit more information on it, like a tag line under neither the speech bubble. Also maybe some things which link to social media, since the show is based on what people are talking about on social media. However I still like it, we showed it to the class and everyone liked it and didn't want anything changing.
