Week three

Creating Logos
   We have been looking at videos in the style of film opening we are going to create and what the conventions a detective film are. Also, we have been looking at other examples of studio logos for example, Dreamworks. Dreamworks logo is dream-like and looks a bit like a fairy tale which reflects the majority of films that Dreamworks makes like Shrek and Monsters vs. Aliens. Looking at the type of sound track played during the Dreamworks logo film before a film plays the music is also quite dream-like and reminiscent of a fantasy film.

   With this in mind, whilst we were brainstorming ideas for studio logos and names that would relate to a detective film.

Here are some of the ideas we came up with:

   We could not decide on a name so we decided to each design a logo for the name we most liked to compare later on in the week and use as our logo.

   I came up with Mirror image productions and thought of the idea for a logo of the word Mirror typed amd then Mirrored to say 'Mirror' backwards. I also came up with Alley Cat productions. My idea for that logo is a dark, narrow alley way with a black cat half way down it walking toward the end of the alley stopped turining around to look at where the camera would be if it was a photograph.

   I'm going to use sumopaint.com to create the logos but with the Alley Cat logo if that is what i'll choose, will be taken with a camera, uploaded onto sumopaint.com and transformed.
