This project was to expand your experience with Adobe Illustrator. We started this project by watching videos of the meaning of squares, circles, and triangles. We then sketched drawings of what we thought we wanted our logo to look like. After we thought we knew the general idea of what we want, we went on to Adobe Illustrator and tried to recreate our drawing on the computer. I used lots of line tools to create a candy effect type of logo and found a font that created a girly type feel to the words. To swoop out the ends of the A's, I zoomed in and went on picture formatting, then grabbed pixels till I liked the way it looked. I then zoomed out and lined up all the text with the circle.
A few problems I ran into were having to figure out how to zoom in on the pixels and creating the swoop effect. Another one that happened was after I created the lines and fit them into the circle, I had to put them behind the letters but above the circle. Me, being the blonde I truly am, didn't know I had a fill in the circle. So I then made the circle no fill and got the lines behind the letters. I thought I lined up the letters with the circle good, and created the candy effect that I was hoping for. The lines sticking out the A's definitely need work in making it look less robic like and more like an actually candy. If I were to change anything next time, I would test out more colors and probably change the pink to a more subtle color. I also wanted to have the Y connect into the circle and have it swoop around. I probably wouldn't have created the lines originally, but I thought the space needed something extra to make it more bold.
