Rough drafts leading to final product.
This was me brain storming
This was me getting all the ideas together and seeing how everything would fit. Including gradients , curved lines, and colors picked to evoke feelings. and and emotions based on the subject of domestic violence. Purple is the color for DV and blue is for child abuse and sexual assault. I am a survivor of both and broke a 2 generation cycle for my son.
This is were i realized a ven diagram would be best to pull all the ideas together,
Final product as a drawn by hand. Media used: Pencil , black charcoal, red charcoal, Prismacolor Premier Verithin on drawing paper made for pencil and charcoal.
This is my professional logo which I created digitally and I took those photos of myself by myself and made it fully myself.
When 1st creating my logo I was thinking of what it should be about, should it be about ? While deciding I though of my work as a Domestic Violence advocate and how I have a digital logo I created myself. I thought also of my work in computers as I am a computer technician and I do also have a digitally made logo for that. I also thought of a logo for my future work in BioChemistry. In the end I went with my DV work since it is currently as I will be speaking this year October 25th at the DV event held by the Erie County Coalition Against Family Violence which will be held at UB south from the 6pm to 8pm? I believer and they will be show casing a sculpture I made about my experience in Domestic Violence.
2. Describe the process: creative thinking skills and ideas you used in the logo creation.
While thinking about how to make my logo I thought of how I could create my digital logo in a different fashion for words I use which are :Hear No Evil, Speak No Evil, See No Evil. The idea is that all this does is leads to more Domestic Violence as it is a taboo topic . It is an epidemic but still something people do not feel comfortable. I started .out with just one circle, then I used a Ven Diagram to show how all three lead to just more Violence and no action against stopping it
3. What was the most important discovery you made in the creation of your logo?
4. What is the most important informationIt helped instill in me that I am a very multifaceted person, I have been thought A lot. It also showed me that I can draw and eye, an eye and lips better than I thought I could. I have never been very good at drawing these things so it took a lot of effort! Trough the creative thinking process I noticed I had quite a few options as I do a lot more things than I think people give me credit. They tend t think I am just a disabled single mom and our society looks down on that. People often look down on me for that but they have no idea how much work it is to be a mother let alone a single mother. To be a "professional Patient" people with my diseases and similar ones call it as we usually know far more about our diseases than our doctors and we have to go to so very many doctors appts a month its un-nerving.
What were the most important things you learned from watching the videos, powerpoint, and reading material for this project? What is your opinion of the videos?
I liked the videos as they were helpful and right to the point. They explained why your logo needs to be able to be printed on anything from a napkin to a letter head to a folder. While my logo came out bigger than I wanted it to if scaled down it could function for this but I much prefer the logo I use which I posted.
