Reflection Journal

    In class we were learning about shapes and paintbrush tools. We were assigned to create our own logos for a company, store or anything but it had to be our own. At first it as hard to come up with an idea but then I came up with the idea of cross country. I came up with this idea as my logo because I am in the school cross country and i wanted to advertise it and make it more popular for others to join.
     In our logos we had use design elements and design principles. The design principles i used were emphasis and repetition. The design elements i used in my logo are shapes, line, and color. This helps your logos look better. I also used value making things that are more important brighter.
   We learned about the difference between vector and bitmap images. Bitmap images are images that combine different kind of color pixels to make one image. Vector images use mathematical equations that are great to scale an image especially  for logos or design. This makes the image more sharp and less blurry on the edges or sides or the image.
    I did some changes for my redesign logo. I added more color and I added another shape. I added more texture in my logo. I changed the size of some things in my logo to put more emphasis on it. I pretty glad with my logo and how it came out as a final job.
