Fotografiks 2nd review

Liked the roadside sign and the "T", very "bright".

Interesting use of typography - would you let them fix your computer?

Wonderful mural in Griffin, GA.

Thought the typography was a good choice for a Golf and Country Club. (love the heron in the 'b').

Some people love typography - even on their cars.(rush hour traffic - that's why it's blurry).

Walked a labyrinth - I am fascinated by them and their history - that's why I chose the noun labyrinth for my 2nd project.

Tree of Life at the DeKalb Medical Wellness Center. Each leaf lists the name of a sponsor.

Another Barnes & Noble store - cool display.

I liked how the car window framed the Plaza Theater sign. (raining again).

The age of digital - thought this was interesting - dynamic typography.

One of my favorite movies - like the poster too.

Fotografiks 1st review

I was in Mexico when class first started but I took this picture of 2000 year old Mayan typography.

Love this display in Barnes and Noble - one of my favorite places.

You find typography everywhere, even in the recycling bin.

Looking for inspiration for logo typography - found it in a coat stand.

Still looking for inspiration - everywhere.

I know why we've become oblivious to advertizing.  We don't "see" it anymore.

Interesting sign out in the middle of nowhere.  It transports me to the tropics palm trees and all.

Typography in the dashboard.  No I wasn't speeding.

I love to read - typography everywhere. (My great, great grandmother made the afgan.)

Absolut Ad Campaign

These ads have always been creative and innovative.  I saw the Frabel gallery here in Atlanta and was amazed at the beauty of their glass sculptures.

Interesting Ad

Thought this was fun - didn't expect it from Dunkin' Donuts.

Love the Dove Real Beauty Campaign

I've always loved the Dove Real Beauty campaign, especially the work they are doing to boost self-esteem in young girls.

Final Logo Versions

Dragonfly logo - I tightened up the curve in the 'd' and smoothed out the 'wings' of the drafonfly. (love that pen tool when it cooperates). Still like the background against the white silhouette of the letters. 
Celtic logo - worked on making the 'D' and 'T' standout - not just to look like a mark.  Adding color was harder than I thought - went back and forth on these.
Musical logo - liked the clean lines of the letters.  I tried moving the top of the 'T' at the same angle as the 'd' but I didn't like it as much as the straight line 'T'.  I did move the top of the 'T' down closer to the 'd'.
As you can see I love shades of purple.  It's always been my favorite color.

Working with Color

I didn't think adding color to my logo would be so hard.  I just thought I could pick colors I liked and they would naturally work.  Not so easy.  I'm not completely satisfied so I'm still working with them.  See what you think.
