you will requested it so today another test type video but this time you can
test your knowledge of logo design follow along and count your scores as we
go through each legged as an example and try to work out what is wrong with each
logo design so here is the first design in today's test and take a close look
and try to determine what is wrong with the logo design and what needs to be
changed so the first answer in today is a logo design test video is that the
logo type was too cramped and closely packed together having logo type in this
manner makes the design look to squash into undesirable and it's a common
problem I see many beginner designers making so try and give you a logo type
and the tagline room to breathe on your logo designs now if you go this one
correct to give yourself 20 points now here is the second logo design and
there's one thing that needs to be changed for a specific reason
can you knowledge of logo design find the right answer
okay so in the second design the lines that make up the tick symbol are too
thick and too closely packed together and this is a problem because when you
use the logo scaled down to a small size the negative space is going to be so my
nudes that the logo may blow into one shape and this can happen on say a
business card for example now if you got that one correct to give yourself
another 20 points for the third liquor design there is one problem that needs
to be changed if you can get it right you're gonna win 15 points so on this
design here another common problem I see amateur designers making is that the
area symbol has been used to represent the a in a typography this should never
be done and it's a very distasteful style of logo instead to keep the liquor
type in a fall and do not let the symbol represent a letter of the logo type
itself now the answer is going to be awarded 15 points the fourth of six logo
examples today may be tricky but if you can find out what is wrong with the logo
you're going to be awarded 25 points
so the problem here is that the style of typeface used for urban does not
represent the feeling or the message of the word itself the typeface used is
sophisticated and almost dare I say high status in appearance
whereas urban Cano street life in a concrete jungle and so forth so always
remember that your typefaces and logo type need to send the right message
about the brand in conjunction with the logo symbol itself that correct answer
is worth 25 points so here is the fifth Logan is an example on screen but what
needs to be changed
so this design uses too many colors throughout the symbol logo type and also
the tagline this renders the design not memorable too hectic and not simplistic
when designing a logo be careful using too many colors and make sure the color
that you do use is relevant to the brand itself but also the industry of the work
and for noticing this logo has too many colors you can avoid yourself 20 points
okay in the last logo design in today's videos on screen and there's two
different things wrong with it and each change will actually award you 15 points
can you tell me what this changes are so firstly on this logo the upper logo type
is not spread out evenly the coning needs to be addressed has the negative
spaces uneven back an awardee 15 points and secondly on the lower tagline the
kerning is too closely packed together and scaled down this will not be legible
so for these two answers together in combination you have 30 points so in
today's a look at a sign test video there a total of 130 points to be
awarded 0 to 20 points suggest that you need to really focus your attention on
the basics of logo design and graphic design in general 25 to 40 points
suggest that you have a very basic understanding of logo design but you
need to keep studying and to keep surrounding yourself with professional
design to learn from 45 to 80 points suggest that you have at least a basic
understanding of logo design and you're well on your way to having a firm
understanding 85 to 105 points is quite a high score and it suggests that you
have a firm understanding of logo design and you're on your way to mastering it
anything above 110 I personally would suggest that you have a very good and a
solid understanding of logo design so there was another test type video let
me know down below if you dig this kind of content and also what would you ask
or and then be discouraged if you got a low score it just shows that you need to
spend more time focusing on design theory and logo design rules I'm
actually going to link videos down description box below
only good design rules understand rules in general but yeah like a national
content on social media and subscribe to to Tory graphics you haven't already and
until next time design a future today peace
