Animal Logo

This piece is the logo that we were supposed to do for this assignment, I personally thought this one was one of the most interesting and rewarding projects during this class. It has an aardvark and a rhino in the first capital B, followed by a hummingbird, and then a leaping animal, which I believe is either a tiger or a cheetah/puma. I personally only like the first two as inverted/upside down versions of it are not as interesting to look at because they are hard to actually comprehend.

The pattern in this piece is in the letters and colors used being that the whole picture is repeated four times with different combinations like color inversions and being backwards. The black and white backgrounds and coloring for each letter are being contrasted visibly. My name is being emphasized throughout the picture in black and white, about four times in a row. It has symmetrical balance although maybe not because the backwards side is different in content and the black and white blocks never line up, so asymmetrical. Yes unity is here, the elements work together and it looks good with the easy to see contrast and the emphasis lets you look at the animals used in it.

The piece was supposed to just be your name with objects or animals through them and visible during color changes, which I thought was simple and rewarding, well maybe not that simple. To make this one, we had to put the actual picture of the animal into the letters and extract them out but left the shape of it still there. In other words I forgot the actual procedure of it but that is my vague understanding of what we did.

I thought this one was good and actually successful unlike most of my other works, but then again during this project I actually paid attention and tried unlike some of the other works I have. I believe it came out with the elements of design still intact and is something I am proud of making. The connection with animals instead of objects, is something resulting after watching too many nature/animal planet related things and I don't regret time spent watching them.
