"Welcome to my studio everybody. My name is Lars-Eric Robinson. My company is LarsEr Arts All Around Artainment. Today we're going to talk about how to create logos. And I have a logo here that I created for a company. It starts with an A. And they kind of deal with things that have to do with avalanches and stuff like that. And so I try to create the logo to go with what the company is. And this was created on the computer. You could hand draw it and then put it in there but I do recommend logos that are usually really sharp done in either Illustrator on the computer or you could do it on Photoshop. So if you could imagine their name will be right here. That's where their name of the company would be. Maybe a trademark. And then I just did a few little dots like this. And you can see it on there. This could be all filled in. All black. Like you see the tattoos all filled in with black. And then just, it's clean, it describes exactly what, kind of what the company does. And if you could imagine this was done in the computer everything will be sharp and it'll be a clean look. And you could have it all in different kind of colors. And you can brighten it that way. That gives you a little explanation of how to create your logo. What you have to think about is what your company does and try to incorporate that within your logo. The look should be similar to what your company service does. Thank you so much for joining me. Have a good day."
