LLLLLLOOOOGGGGGOOOOOSSSSS

One logo I really like is the NASA logo. I think the logo really gets the point of the organization across, and I like the colors
Image result for nasa

I like the Flycycle logo, because it is very simple while also representing what the company is. I like how it looks like a bike with wings

I really like the Pixels logo. I think that like the flycycle logo, its simplicity is what makes it appealing. I also like that the word pixels is all pixellated.
I think that the Poisoncat logo is wonderful. The use of one color makes it stand out, and the overall design is very intriguing.
I don't like the Sharlock logo very much. I think that it is based too heavily on the spinning mouse symbol on macs. Because of this, it seems almost like plagiarism.
While the 1LIN1 logo is interesting, it gives no information as to what the company might be, and is more confusing than anything.

Poster Reflection

Poster Reflection

1. I believe that my stance is unclear, but I designed it that way. My poster is supposed to distract the viewer, so they will not understand the point right away.

2. I did not come up with this idea until after the thumbnails and concept boards, so I cannot compare them with my final.

3. My changes from the first version of the poster are small. I covered the page with letters and numbers, filled the big letters with letters and numbers, and made the colors in the background translucent. I also changed some of the colors of the letters.

4. I feel confident about Skill and Technique, because my poster is well edited, and I used lots of different tools to do different things. I am unconfident about my concept, because my concept is a bit hidden, and not really in your face.

5. I had a lot of trouble coming up with my stance. I don't have many issues that I really care about, but I finally decided on saying that ADHD is really difficult to deal with.

6. My biggest challenge design wise was putting words inside the letters. I thought that the outlines of the letters would still be visible, but they kept disappearing. I finally decided to shape the characters to the big letters.

Issues I should care about

I only use Snapchat, and you don't see many issues on there. Even when one comes up I usually skip over it, because I kind of despise current events.

Paris Bombings: I definitely do feel bad for paris, and for the families of everyone who died. However, I never wanted to dwell on it. It was definitely tragic, but I learned all I wanted to know very quickly. I hate Thinking about all of the death.

Starbucks: Something else I saw was Starbucks refusing to say Christmas. I noticed it mainly because of how unbelievably stupid it is. The fact that people would make a big deal about Starbucks cups is kind of hilarious to me. And for continuing to learn about it, what else is there to learn? People get mad about stupid things.

I also care very much about David Bowie, but I don't know what I could say about him that hasn't already been said.
