5. Create a band
I don’t wanna hang out with a bunch of wannabe corporate sell outs. I’m gonna form my own band and we’re gonna start a revolution, OK? And you’re gonna be a funny little footnote on my epic ass! Jack Black, school of rock.

Dislike 1
Only a few colours.
It has a unique design
The background is foggy and it does not fit in. 2
Only black and white.
It is very simple.
There are no dislikes. 3
It cant be copied easily.
It is a good logo and makes sense that it is for a band called misfits.
It can be a bit complex. 4
It is very simple and it can easily be noticed.
It is a bit too simple for a band logo. 5
It is the band name.
It is a very good font.
As I said for trivium, it is too simple.

11. Example reviews
Essential: I like the colours used and the picture looks funky.
I don’t like the font that has been used.
Stretch: I like the colours used, as it is only black and greens and makes the image clear to read. The picture of a frog matches the name of the band. I don’t like the font as it is very bland and old fashioned.
Challenge: This is a pop band, aiming at a young audience. The image of a frog is funky and young in style which suits the band. The colour scheme is black and green, which is very bold and easy to read, so it is easy for the audience to pick out. It also ties into the name because of the use of green, the most common colour of a frog. I don’t think the font is suitable because it looks very old fashioned and this is meant to be a young band.

12. Task 4: Create Your Logo
You must create an original logo for you band.
It must:
Be one you have created yourself using digital tools
Have at least one image included.
Have a style that shows what kind of music your band will play.
Have no more than 3 colours.
Be no larger than 600x600 pixels.

Challenge: To create a professional logo with a clear house style and genre. Combine images well and use multiple complex editing techniques.

14. Print screen of your logo first draft
When you have complete the first draft of your logo place it here.

15. Task 5: Peer reviews Feedback Provider Positive aspects
Areas to improve
Test Buddy 1
It suits the name and looks amazing.
It could have writing.
Test Buddy 2
It has lots of detail.
The blue does not really fit in.

16. Task 6: improvements
3 improvements I would like to make to my logo are:
Using the same sort of colours and not dark then bright.
I could add a bit of writing to it so it is not just a logo.
Nothing else that can be thought of.

17. Print screen of your improved logo
Stretch: Can you annotate to identify what has been improved.
Challenge: Your annotation needs to explain why the changes improve the logo for the target audience.

18. Review How did you make your logo style match your bands style?
It was the same design.
What graphics skills did you need to use to make the logo?
I used the paint bucket in Photoshop.
Think of a problem that you had and explain how you solved it.
I had a problem with too bright of a blue outline so I changed it to a darker colour.
What feedback did you receive from your test buddy? Was this useful?
He told me it is now looking better but it would look even better with writing.
What could be improved about your logo?
Next time I could add a word like the name of the band.
