BLOG #3 703 LOGO MAKING ADVENTURES This could be very dangerous folks. I have been introduced to the world of logo making! When we began thinking about logos and doodling around with ideas I felt overwhelmed. When I compared what my brain was imagining with what my doodles were exhibiting and then what products I could observe on the Innovative Learning website, I just wondered, “How will I get from here to there?” Well, then I met Logomakr! I found Logomakr very easy to use. The instructional video went over the main features and a lot of the other features were very intuitive. I enjoyed previewing different logo images and font choices. The number of choices is a good and bad thing. So many options mean you are not limited which is good, and with so many options your choices are limitless, which can be bad, especially if you are a fiddler like me. I just keep playing around with different fonts and locations, changing colors on the images. This is fiddling heaven. I leave it for a while, then come back, “let me try this instead.” The fact that it is all just a click away to change or revert back makes the process easier for me. My brain keeps saying, “Let’s see, try it.” So far the only hurdle I have found is that I wanted to create a large first letter on my title so that I could use an acronym for part of my logo. What I was going for is Affinity Groups 4 Engagement but I couldn’t figure out how to enlarge just that first letter. I have to keep looking at it because I’m not one hundred percent sold on my logo yet and AGE may be too cheesy. The creative options and ease of use made me want to create logos for all kinds of things. My team at Redwood could use a logo refresh, the Whitt family probably needs a logo, my science department cries for a logo, and certainly my own classroom, my home away from home, room C-7, deserves a logo of identification.
