Logo Design
Intellicrowd is an international social media monitoring company/application. In this logo I developed some custom edits for the text that include some of the letters but especially the easily seen three letters creating the graph to represent the monitor and analysis the company does.
Logo Design
This logo was important to me and I wanted to make sure they got the best result. It's a dangerous place out here on the web, especially for young kids who might accidentally type the wrong thing into google and voila,.. so much porn, sex, drugs, etc available right through the internet. Well SearchGuardian is a program that helps keep kids and others off those sites. In this logo I wanted to use some hidden imagery. For some people, they see the "eye" first, for others they see a kid hugging their 'dad' or guardian. The client was thrilled that such a simple concept could convey so much.
Logo, Stationery, and Branding Guidelines
Moovers came to me with one request; make some custom type, make it look stylized, and make it look like it was in motion. I love logotypes because nowadays I think they are the most effective, unless you have a specific reason for needing an icon. In this particular case, the client provided me with oreos, pringles, buger king, and some others for inspiration. I started sketching out some possible solutions, then transferred to illustrator for rendering. The logo came out great and the client liked the color palette chosen as well. I am designing some other things for this company so I will keep updating as we go a long.
Logo and Flyer Design
I loved the title of this event so much that I spent some time developing a custom logo that they could use each year. Instead of changing it up each year, keep and maintain a uniformed look so people know who the company is and what they are about. Here I was in charge of conveying richness, glamour, and wonderment.
Logo Design
Hi Impact was a fun logo to design. My first step in any logo design is to mindmap. In this particular instance, nothing really came to mind when I started thinking about something that was high impact.. I thought of jets, bullseye's being shatter, mostly things just being shattered. I then researched every word associated with it and somehow came across a sumo wrestler video. The impact they create either by stomping on the ground or hitting each other is not known literally but it looks like it would hurt. The client wanted something out of the box so I drew out some sumos in different positions and this was the favorite. I also did their web design, check it out here.
Web Design
I ended up doing some logo concepts for them, but they went with something different (it happens). Either way, they liked my work enough to hire me on to do their website design. After having some discussion about the design and idea of the site, I came up with this design for them. They loved it, and while it's still being developed, I just had to share it with everyone. I created a sleek easy to use interface for the apps section with great rollovers and guides. This site is being developed by Jared Lunde.
Logo Design
This was a bit more difficult logo to do considering the client didn't want anything to do with guns in his logo. After creating some unique wordmarks that didn't seem to work (they wanted something more 'patriotic'), I tried my version of an old flag design and made it kind of vintage/retro. I also loved the star at the top and the way everything worked with the type.
Logo Design
The finalized logo for a Baptist Church in California called Blue Oaks Baptist Church. I created a custom blue oak tree and used a square to box it in. I allowed it to breathe a bit by letting part of the tree to go outside the box, giving it a sense of freedom. I paired it with a more updated font named 'CRAW' rather than the usual boring dry typefaces used in churches nowadays.
