what is up people welcome back to Satori graphics the home of graphic
design content right here on YouTube is Friday and I've got another logo design
tutorial for you all to follow along with and create for yourself we're going
to making a logo using a transparency tool in Adobe Illustrator
so for today's abstract logo design tutorial I'm gonna suggest something
that I often do on this channel and I just a turn on your smart guides you
might want to use these to help on creating various different shapes for
your logo design within Adobe Illustrator make a dark background with
a rectangle tool and then go ahead and lock it down in place we're going to be
using a transparency window a whole lot in today's logo design tutorial and you
can actually find that here we can find in the drop down menu above select a
color for your first shape when your abstract logo design and then press P
for the pen tool I'm going to make up abstract like a design using triangles
but you can of course use whatever floats your boat for your logo design we
can also add to the effect by using gradients and the gradient fill is here
then in today's logo design tutorial you simply take your time to build up shapes
in this traitor using gradients and a running color theme
once you've me in the second shape with it still selected go into the
transparency window and apply a blend mode
I find that overlay and soft light work best for my abstract logo design there
is no exact science here today just experiment with different shapes
gradients and blend modes seeing how you can design any abstract logo the
transparency window effects will become more and more complex and dramatic once
you start to apply more layers and shapes onto your logo
today's logo design tutorial is not in trigger and it's one that's not got a
strict formula I thought I'd show you what an easygoing kind of creative logo
design process has a nice way to end the week you also want to make good use of
the direct selection tool here to select and move anchor points around the logo
design I did spend a long time playing around with my design
with no real final go in mind and like I said this was more of like a
free-flowing creative logo design and not so much a strict regimented design
process sometimes it's a nice break to move away from a strict brief that
restricts your artistic flair that most of us designers have and to simply see
where you end up along your creative journey as with this logo design today
so I'm going to speed things up here and do a time lapse for my process but yeah
keep applying more shapes with more gradients I remember to play around the
blend mode settings in the transparency window for your abstract logo design so
I'm new in the end of abstract logo design here and finally I set it on to
designs of course you can add some neat logo type to which I've done on my
thumbnail in today's video but there was an abstract logo design tutorial using
the illustrator transparency tool so there was today's abstract logo design
tutorial in adobe illustrator with heavy use of the transparency tool let me know
