1. How does your Logo design represent the after school club or activity? (Font choice, symbol, colors, layout, etc)

The font, especially the "E" represents the uniqueness and distinctiveness of my dance team. The silhouettes (as the symbols) are doing different types of movement, which symbolizes the diversity of the team and how we do all types of dancing and welcome all styles. The colors are black and red to represent that we are all a part of the Millennium High School community (because black and red are the school colors).

2. Which process was most helpful in creating your design? (research thumbnail sketches, concept board, 2 rough drafts, digital draft on Gimp, etc.)

The process I found most helpful in creating my design was creating thumbnail sketches. It really got my ideas flowing and was a way to get them down on paper. By getting the gist of how my ideas might look on paper, I was able to expand or eliminate the sketches.

3.What was the most challenging aspect about the logo project?

The most challenging aspect about the logo project was working within the limits of Gimp. While in the end it came out looking professional, during the process I felt very limited in how I could draw my idea. I actually had to transform the design a little bit to fit the means of Gimp, especially with the font. I usually prefer to draw, which gives me a lot more leg room to play around with my designs.

4. Are you satisfied with your final design? Why is your logo successful? If you not satisfied with your design, what would you like to change?

I am very satisfied with my logo design. The way it came out is nowhere near what I thought it would be when I first started brainstorming. I feel like throughout the process of experimenting with symbol, font and design, I found the perfect balance to effectively illustrate the mission of my dance team. I am very proud of my product.
