Logo Homework

L2 IDENT LEE from cmdiploma on Vimeo.

The toughest situation I came across while working in Photoshop during the logo creation was the layers, by this I mean they got very confusing for me, especially when it came to saving each individual layer then transferring it over to Final Cut, how was I meant to know which layer was which?

I realised this problem when I went to save each layer. I resolved this dilemma by going over each layer to identify what it was, then re-naming the layer so it was clear what the layer is.

During this task working in Final Cut, the most difficult part of it was when I realised my logo clip was too long and dragged on. I had added fade in/outs at the beginning and end, therefore I had to shorten my clips which would then make me lose the fade in/outs, I proceeded with this. Later on when I tried to re-add the fade ins the original ones were still there, but I couldn't see them as I had shortened the clip, which were interfeiring with my whole logo.

I realised this after a while, which I had to then make the clip large so I could see the original fade in, delete it then shorten the clip and re-add the fade ins. From this problem I believe it has been good practice for me adding and removing fade in/outs, I have leant to work with these particular parts well I would say.

Overall with this logo I am most pleased with the main part of it, which was my explosion, visual and my audio which has good timing. The layers come out at you with the sound of a bomb going off. The good timing makes the whole thing look more proffessional, if it was badly out of time, it would be very boring and unproffessional.

Vincent Willem van Gogh

• Died at the age of 37 (29th July 1860)
• Produced more than 2000 pieces of artwork
• Born 30th March 1853
• He was Dutch

He was a very famous artist. His fame grew large after his death. According to research he had suffered from depression and there was bipolar to his history, they believe in the last 2 years of his life he had temporal lobe epilepsy. He commit suicide at the age of 37, he shot himself somewhere in the chest, he then died 2 days later.

The purpose of Van Gogh's work is hard to say. It could have been to entertain people which it did, however it could have just been a way for him to express his feelings which in a lot of his artwork he succeeded to do, he may have only done it because he enjoyed it too.

There are many ways to see his artwork, you could access pictures of his artwork from Google images and various other websites and online galleries. He also has a museum located in Amsterdam, Netherlands. His artwork is extremely expensive, they could well be some of the worlds most expensive artwork. According to Wikipedia, one of his paintings from 1948 was sold at an auction for US$140 million in 2006.

Books

Books have a wide range of purposes including entertainment, to inform, to advertise and many more.

According to Wikipedia they say "In 2010, Google estimated that there were approximately 130 million unique books in the world."

The first book was written many thousands of years ago, so long ago it's hard to know at this stage. It's also hard to say who wrote the first book too, many people would argue it was "God" who wrote the bible, which was the first book. Many would disagree with this also due to religious views.

There are books about literally anything and everything. There is a very large range of genres; horror, comedy, action and many many more!
