Video Transcript

"This is John with Expert Village and I'm still talking about making logos. Now, the next thing that you want to look at, let's say for instance I kind of like what we're developing here, it's almost creating a sort of a cloud feel to it. So what I want to do is I want to try and now go to the edges and just see, like I said the biggest thing about creating a logo is to not limit yourself and not to try it. The reason that I like using graphics rather than just pen and paper, because pen and paper when miss up you have to start all the way back over. Here you can just go around and continue to maneuver and then any time you want to do it you just step backwards and it'll undo it. So, let's say for instance that we've decided we kind of like this, this concept but we want to go even a little bit farther with it. So we want to create something behind it and let's use a different shape. And that's also one of the big thing is don't be afraid to multiply the shapes, use different types of shapes. So for instance we've just filled it in with color, now we have a little bit more of a modern artwork and so what you want to do is you want to pull your original logo back up here and then you want to pull your do it yourself copy. So in just a simple moment, you've created a basic logo."
