MrWonka Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 DESIGN CHALLENGE #1: Logo in under 2 Hours | NYC Snappers It's been awhile since I worked on design for fun at home. It's been awhile since I've done any designs period...maybe close to two months now. Decided to go on sharpen.design and utilize their design challenge generator. The first one I got was sort of designing a sports logo, so I went with it. I decided to record the whole 2 hour process. From research, inspiration, sketching and vectoring to create a logo. I had a ton of fun. I wouldn't look at the video as a tutorial, or a "How To" but more a look into how I take on a project and how my thought process works. If you leave a comment on the video, you can even win a sticker of the final product! I'm thinking of doing this series every Monday for the time being. Let me know what you think! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NqzsAGi-SFA&t=12s DESIGN CHALLENGE #2: Creating a Sports Graphic for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in MS Paint Another week, another design challenge. This one was actually...quite fun lol. Check it out if you're interested in seeing my process and the final product! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HRC4 Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 This was a great pleasure to watch. I loved your thought process that you were able to put into each detail of your short time frame as well as your self reflection after the process was done. Kudos to you. I am now subscribed.

I appreciate your thoughts! I think, pretty clearly the most important part of the video (took over half the time almost) was the sketching. And I think thats a great lesson early on in design. Sometimes you can go right to Illustrator or photoshop if you have a simple shape or simple logo in mind, but to make sure you're getting the best out of your time, really fleshing out the sketch will save you so much time later on as you try to finalize it and digitize it. I hope as I continue this series I can be more comfortable talking while designing but I had a good time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PERRIN Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Very impressive for Paint. Though 'Bucks' is mispelled. It should be 'Bucs'. Perrin Grubb | Aspiring Designer | NAFA Project ~ NFL Redesigns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do note that in the video as mistakes at the end with misspelling September. I think that fits the whole theme of the video so I leave it as is.

MrWonka Posted May 27, 2020 Author Share Posted May 27, 2020 As the title states, I hired two designers. One for a $5 logo design and one designer for a $5 jersey design. The results....well...you'll have to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look forward to a couple more of these throughout quarantine Thank you, I really appreciate that. Making and editing videos has always been a passion growing up but it's been close to 6-7 years since I've uploaded anything to YouTube. Finding that little side hidden passion again. I'm really enjoying making 'em! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
