Wk06 Logo Design Final Phase

Click: Logo First Attempt

I had a lot of difficulty making this logo. Instead of using a hand graphic that I found online, I decided to model my own hand for the logo. This proved to be particularly annoying because I did not have a good camera that could capture a decent image of my hand. It would always either come out too dark or with an intense glare. I ended up having to put a skin texture behind the image of my hand and use the darken feature to make my hand look more like a hand rather than a ghost. I tried creating a tree branch in illustrator but it proved to be a lot more challenging than I expected. I couldn't get certain lines to bend or match up in the ways I wanted to so I dropped illustrator and took an image of a black branch from online. Instead of using this image however, I recreated my own outline of it and took off some of the branch parts to make it my own. I then put on a tree bark texture to the branch. I intersected the pointer finger with the branch to form the T-shape and I used the same text type I used for my original title screen because I liked it so much. I then added in an animation affect to turn the finger into the wood.

After talking to our Professor, I decided against this Logo. There was no way for me to incorporate it into my title screen, so instead I took a new approach. I made a somewhat intro to the game's title screen. I incorporated the branch from the previous logo attempt and it made things look a lot nicer.
