Step 8 – Celebration!
Happy Friday the 13th!
The eighth and final step in the logo design process, as defined by the procedure we read about on Jacob Cass’s Just Creative blog is Celebration! In a survey of 75 top designers, when the job is finally finished and approved, 31% of designers celebrate by drinking beer (not until you’re 21!), 12% head for chocolate (always a good option), 22% head off to bed to catch up on sleep (not in class, but definitely this weekend) and the other 35% can’t celebrate because they must start on the next logo design.
Please join me in raising a cupcake (chocolate or otherwise) as we celebrate the winner of our Logo Design Contest! The winning entry was submitted by Javier in 3rd Hour, who submitted a very cool logo representing the dichotomy of the white hat/black hat hacking activities that the Hayden Cybersecurity team engages in as they prepare themselves to compete in the National Cyber League!
Javier’s design decisively won both the Cybersecurity Team’s vote, as well as the popular vote across all Graphic Design classes. It seems our students know good design when they see it.
Javier will receive the $50 gift card, as well as official recognition at the Magnet Awards ceremony at 6:00pm on May 17th in the Auditorium. Be sure to come to the ceremony to cheer him on as he receives his award!
Now, let’s eat some sweet cuppin’ cakes! Consider it my thanks for all your hard work throughout the eight step logo design process, and a quick break before we take on the last leg of our design journey next week: Digital Animation using Adobe Animate!
