For this topic, I decided to make a logo for a fake Animal Shelter that takes in any kind of animals, along with cross socializing animals when able to be done safely. This fits in with my theme of animal rescue, and isn’t based off of any shelter that I currently know of.
I started off with making a couple small sketches of ideas, wanting to keep it simple without just copying the design ideas off of what we did the in tutorials. While I didn’t really use anything we didn’t already do in the tutorials, I didn’t want to something that was directly based off of what was done in them, thus I decided to draft a logo somewhat like the Petco logo, where it has multiple animals (in this case, a cat, a dog, and a rat) cuddled up together. I’m not a great artist, so I tried my best to make them out of ellipses. I tried to make each animal visually contrasting through different heights, to make sure they weren’t blending into each other by not having enough difference between them. Essentially, I made it as simple as possible and just wanted to make sure everything looked different enough that you could distinctly tell what you were looking at. However, I haven’t managed to finish the logo as I would have liked. I didn’t have the time to figure out how to make the tails, and thus had to leave them out now for now. I couldn’t get them to look how I wanted, ending up looking very odd. I still need to work on it.
Overall, the only thing that I used outside of my own creation is the text, which is already linked to at the top of the page. It is free to use in logos, so I was alright in my use of it. It does not say you have to give credit, but credit is below the image.
