First Photoshop Exercise

Here is an exercise we did for our first time using Photoshop:

Final Logos

Here are the final logos for this project.

 Word and Image as logo
I made a large diamond behind the word and put the dragonfly from the second assignment inside the diamond. This suggests that the jewelry has something exotic about it instead of just having the name "dragonfly" thrown onto it.

Word as logo
I tried to integrate both jewelry and the dragonfly into this logo by replacing the "o" with a diamond ring and having the dragonfly coming off the tail of the "y" with its own tail.

Letter as logo
This one gave me the most trouble. I put a ring around part of the "D" like how you would put a ring around your finger. The dragonfly comes off the other end of the "D" making it look like the entire letter is the dragonfly, looping around itself.

Image as logo
I used the diamond ring and made dragonfly wings coming out of the diamond, which suggests that it's something more exotic than the usual piece of jewelry.

Intent and roughs

For my logo, I planned on using the dragonfly to promote a brand of jewelry. It should appear to be elegant and a bit exotic, much like the dragonfly itself.

Here are hand roughs I made for my logo:

Here are digital roughs I went through:

Logo Research

Here's some research I did on dragonfly logos and other good logos.
