The big question I have here is... why is the logo facing the wrong way? By flipping it, not only would you have the ‘dragon element’ but the curvature then matches that of a ‘D’. It also makes much more sense to do this - that way it’s looking at the writing with pride, not looking away with shame. And if you still don’t agree with this point, check other logos that have a directional sense to them - for example the Twitter bird. They all tend to face left to right because that’s in tune with the way we read and translates to a sense of moving forward. Any thoughts or comments on this?

I disagree. Contrary to what you said, many iconic animal logos face left rather than right to counter the direction of the type. Puma, Jaguar, Playboy, Peugeot, Polo, Crocks, Camel, Ferrari, Polo, JAL, American Eagle are just a few examples. The direction of the animal isn't necessarily important compared to the imagery itself. In this case, the logo works as is in my opinion. Please do some basic research before saying something's in the 'wrong' direction.

Basically thank you this was super informative and I learned a lot. You presented it in a very easy to understand way. I appreciated the bird and nature sound fx too.

Just hear his imput on "how much you charge for a logo?" And what factor depends on what you charge for it! Do you charge your logo for time or value??? It depends on who do you sell it! If it's a small store it won't worth the same as if you sell it to a big corporation like Nike for instance even if the logo is tat simple to draw! I love it because this channel talks a lot about marketing of graphic design business and how to run it!

I have been using Photoshop since College and worked in a digital printing shop. I quit my job last month. I was just hired last week as a Graphic Designer. And the company wants me to use Illustrator. Or any vector designing apps. I only have little idea about Illustrator so I had to research quickly before they give me their first task. And so I found your channel and watched your tutorials. Now Im saved! Thank you Master! 😁

Absolutely love your tutorials. Even with the voice overs, actually sounds very clear and crisp. thanks for not adding music. so much better. I learned so much here today!

I really appreciate you sharing so much in your videos, thank you, and your teaching is so helpful. I also noticed that this video has 4.5 million views, and you’re still getting comments and still responding even though you haven’t published a new video for ages. Brilliant!

Simply put: a first class all-round tutorial - and a great geometric design with beautiful flow to it.

I learned from you more than you can imagine, I hope you come back with your amazing videos 🙏🏼🙏🏼

Bro, I'm not exaggerating. You became a light in the dark with this video. Really showed me a way to start creating

This weekend is my logo submission to my client . What I have newly learnt from this tutorial are 19:28 20:28 . Grazie mille!!

Thank you for this amazing video! What I found most helpful were the various techniques and tools that you‘ve used in Adobe Illustrator in order to realise the logo in vector-form.

To me, sketching is the most important part of having a great logo

I thought it was quite interesting how you used simple geometric shapes to create this. I'm a sucker for alignment and geometric shapes, so this has helped show me how to create consistency within a design (as in with shading and shape thickness) as well as applying geometric shapes to create the final design.

you packed so much about illustrator for logo making in just 1 video! I never understand the use for guides and how to make logo feel 'well balanced'. thank you so much for giving a new perspective!

I learned that the shaping with the alignment is really the key to making the logo. It looks much clearer.

Extremely extremely valuable insight into workflow, professional technique and client communications. Thank you very much for this video. It’s wonderful.

I love that this guy isn't trying to tell you how to live your life, he's just showing best practices and educating for free. So cool.

I learned so much today. You helped me realise that no tool is small. Even a circle tool used with shape builder tool can create the perfect curves for a logo. Thank you for sharing your process with us and thank you for creating this KZread channel. Please make more videos like this. They are super informative.

Today I understand the actual use of "Shape Builder Tool" Got to know a bit about grid system in logo designing. In short I in whole tutorial I learnt a lot.

From the very starting to the end of the logo designing I really enjoyed it a lot and learned alongside. It was way more interesting than I thought it would be. Lastly I liked the presentation most which was really so clean and cool.

Thanks for giving socha professional way of logo designing demonstration, positive and negative spacing, designing according to the client's requirement point. Thank you very much.

I love how simple this video is and how it didn't need many tools

Would have done this with stroke-widths and konvert to fills and use the negative space as a stroke too. (Object/Path/Move Path - hope it's correct in the u.s. version) The majority of the roundings I would have done with the edges-tool and typing in the correct value for the rounding. There are always many ways in Illustrator. One tipp: Align the guides to the ancor points: Drag the guides directly to the ancor points and they will snap. (According to your settings of course). And use x, shift x, , (komma) and # as shortcuts for the fills. I (type i) is the eyedropper-tool. Anyway a great tutorial for combining creative techniques. All thumbs up!! For all the guys out there learning how to design: Of course it's not that easy as it seems. There were tons of decisions in it and you probably didn't notice. Experience is the key and you will get faster with it as you train your mind to foresee the outcoming of your decisions. Andy, ACI (Adobe Certified Instructor)
