Screenshots Of Making Logo's

I started off by using the scanned drawing of the logo and imported it into Photoshop, i then put a layer on top of it and made it slightly transparent so that i could see the scan underneath. I then used the line tool to go around the outline of the shape, i then had the structure for my logo. I then filled it appropriately using black and white so that the outcome was the picture underneath. 


After this I did the same with these two deferent scans underneath. I again filled them appropriately to make it look as realistic as i could to a film reel. 


After this i saved them all separately and then merged them together fitting each part in the positions that i wanted them. 


For my other logo i thought of a simple but effective logo, i drew the word giant on a piece of plain paper and scanned it in. I then found a font off dafont.com which fitted the style of text i wanted and downloaded it and used it. I modified it using stroke effects and bevel and emboss effects. 


I did the same procedure with this next piece of text.


I then got both of the pieces of text and placed them in the right positions.



I then downloaded a brush from brusheezy.com of a giant looking silhouette and placed on either side of the text. I did this because it has reference to the title of the logo. 



Throughout making these logo's i have used skills i already had and i have made them look as professional as i can. Some of the skills i used were layer masking, using bevel and emboss, stroke effects, brush tool, fill tool, line tool which i also used as a free hand tool and a circle tool. Although these skills seem to be simple, i have used them in a way in which they look very presentable and could realistically be seen as a professional logo.
