3:17 I think there's something very clever about the logo on the t-shirt. From this distance, it looks just like a tiger with stripes. The obscurity of the letters still adds to the overall design. Not sure if intentional but very cool either way!

I think it is intentional and it looks really good.
When you scrolled down to the "Integrated Self Councelor" post I thought it was an actual ad on Reddit, so I guess they succeeded with the logo?
Primary-pineapple-97 here, thanks for reviewing my design, I'll redo it according to your suggestions. Once again thank you!

Did you mess around with the logo as the ampersand I’m so curious what it looks like

On that business card I think he was a little bit harsh, but what I would maybe do is an oversized red logo in the bottom left side that is 75% in from the bottom and the left, and goes up perhaps 75% of the white background. Then just drop opacity to like 20-30%, enough to it is visible but also so it doesn't interfere with the text. To keep some brand continuity as well I would probably opt to change the flat red line to instead incorporate the three peaks idea from the logo, I'd do it incredibly subtle, almost flat but just enough to see the three peaks design.
AbrahamWhistler here. Thanks Will for critiquing my Integrated Self Counselor logo. Really appreciate the kind words and was ecstatic to see I made it on this episode when it came out!

The switch one was really good.
Kindly do logo critiques every week so that more small logo designs would be covered
Hands down Switch, its simple yet lends its self to illustrating that its a quick mode of transport through the city and with a a hint of playfulness too. :-)

i liked the idea of the southpaw very much but its for my favor probably a bit overloaded so i like the reduced logo switch, was a bit better :).

HOW did you do this teardrop mark ?? Edit got it so cool
Very impressive how the lightning bolt i in the Switch logo both follows the slant of the w before it, but also aligns with the shape of the cross on the t after it. It’s very well thought out.
Big fat thanks.. Every time I watch your videos I learn something new .. very Informative and I love the way you present your videos Keep it up.
Really helpful video to see your thought processes on branding and tweaking designs. 👌🏻 what’s works and what may not work in a true context.
Always love these types of videos you do ♥️ !
Nice one! I liked your comment about how hard it is to critique a logo without knowing what it is for. Knowing what the brief is for each logo could help!
Its amazing how much people in the comments have logo profile pictures.
I liked the last two. Especially the logo before last more. My only change for that is that I would suggest the ends of both the speech bubble and the smile in it to be round opposed to being flat.
Great video lad! always interesting to see your insights!
I immediately thought desert shield looked like a menstrual cup
This was a great batch, I think I liked just about all of these. The Pick Pack logo was particularly striking to me
that lightning bolt/scooter icon is too good not to use, i hope they fit it in somewhere
To answer your question why Coca-Cola chose red; It’s because at the time of the drinks were earth tones so the red help that stand out on the shelf.
Hey man, loving these videos - one can learn a lot from these. What came to my mind in this one - have you thought about making a video about how to make a mockup of a logo in some way? I'm sure there is something like that out there but I would love to hear some inside from you!
Finally FreshBooks has a new logo!
Awesome! A new video!!
Im not sure if it was red or yellow but i remember one of those causing hunger/cravings
I'm kinda triggered that the southpaw one doesn't have a boxing reference haha
thanks a lot for doing these critiques, this kind of feedback is so important for young designers to grow! I feel like I m learning just watching other people's work and your opinion. I ll definitely submit some when I get the chance
love this type of videos
could you do a video on the 'marketing' side of logos and logo designing
i love the southpaw one! very cool
u deserve my subscribe. glad youtube recommended this to me
At 3:21 we can look back to 3:13…. It looks like it’s about sports, does it not? Agile and active animals are great for representing sports.
Integrated Self Councelor was pretty good. That and the desert shield.
I found this in my recommended. This comment will help the algorithm so here you go! Your content is way too sweet for only 19k subs

Great video as always 🤞
I liked the idea and color way of desert shield
EYYY I go to north texas, cool to see a designer from here featured on your video.
I love these videos.
I liked switch the most! The colors were fun and it was pretty consistent (except for the app)
hello, I am starting out as a graphic designer and was wondering where you find free commercial-use fonts, and how to do a mockup on an electronic device. thanks, and I just subscribed because I like your work.

The i in the Switch logo is a double play, it's a person riding a scooter and a lightning bolt
loved the idea of pick pack but as you said they should get rid of the extra information.
The purple light in the background hits in the eye. I really don't like it much but it's just my opinion I liked the previous one better
Yessss
I liked the Pick Pack one and the animal one.
Funny how it’s called SOUTHPAW, while the jaguar is in orthodox stance.
Good content!
for the pick pack logo, it also doesn't read as a hand from afar, the text at the bottom and top directly confused me, and im an artist
12:24 I couldn’t see the arm for a while, I thought it was a rubber chicken TBH
switch was my favorite
I liked the switch logo
Yippee
Can you make a video on Font selection? I always make mistakes while selecting fonts.
🔥🔥🔥
Integrated Self Counsellor
Reminds me of Malaysian legends, the Alleycats!
To be fair, when I saw that lightning i I immediately pictured a person
thanks
The first one looks like a menstrual cup. Someone had to say this.
Am I the only one seeing the sense in SWITCH logo? This isn't a lightning bolt in my opinion, it represents a human standing on the scooter which you can clearly see on the icon. That dot on , let's stay letter i, in the word SWITCH, that dot actually represents human head and bolt is actually a torso and legs.
I think the switch logo could look cool if you make the i and the scooter different color. The i black and the scooter white
Nice video! Also, for some reason I cannot post on your subreddit :( I also filtered to 'new' but my post won't show up? Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
I wish you could critique on a logo that I recently designed for a friend, sir.

Southpaw .. and I think it was supposed to be a tiger? It looked that way to me because the letters were stripey

Looks like a custom build, the keycaps can be found anywhere and the case is a 60% build with a a slope type.
i thought the pick pack logo had a nose and it said pick so i thought it was a picking your nose joke..😰
Next time you guys might see my logo... 😁
The Integrated Self Counselor looks a bit too much like the Samsung Upday logo. Can't unsee it now ...
Wow
By looking at the logo, I though u were the founder of freedom phone.
5:28 isn't the lightning bolt to signify it's an electric scooter?
Just joined the Reddit. Can we share old logos as well?
Pick Pack and Southpaw
I don't understand the "period" at the end of Desert Shield. Why would you have a period in a logo???
Switch. Is it a lightning bolt or a person with no arms squatting?

What hurts me the most is that the "Southpaw" design in the thumbnail is literally not standing southpaw. like both left legs are in front which is orthodox. southpaw is in reverse!!
Maybe it's just me but he look a lot like Eddie from Kingsman.
That's not the new Firefox logo
