Lesson 4.1 - Logos, Critiquing and Photos that Sell

 Question 1

Logo 1

Logo 8

                                                                               Logo 19

                                                                                

                                                                                Logo 21

                                                                                Logo 43

The logo I liked the most that I created is the Logo 21. The style makes it look chaotic in a sense and the handwriting for last word just adds more to the logo. The lightning bolts also adds some personality to the logo.

Question 5

XBOX

The image has a black background with a green glow that leads to the product.  The misty green fog in the back makes the products and words stand out more.  The words they use is (Power your dreams) which is saying that the product will make your dreams come true.  I do like the way they present the product it makes it feel mystical and powerful with the lighting and fog.

The product is the center of attention with a white glow behind it.  The light behind shows the outline of the product while everything else is in black.  The ground looks rocky and wet with light reflecting on it.  The words they use is (Feel the power), it tries to explain that it is a powerful console for gaming.  The advertisement of this product is good and catches my attention very fast with the glow in the back.

The ad shows three products in one.  Its shows the console with the controller and the camera that comes with console to play Kinect.  There appears to be light reflections in front of the product instead of behind it and the ads always appear to have a black base for the background.  The text says (All In One), which is saying all three of these products come to gather and do not have to get them separately.  The advertising of this one is more basic than the other ads that I have chosen but can still catch someone’s eye if they are looking this product. 

The ad is very colourful showing to people playing a racing game.  The game is shown in an X display while the people are on the sides of the X. It shows the product at the bottom of the X and the logo on top of the X.  It can lead the views eye in all the directions and not get bored looking at it.  The text says (Jump In), trying to convince the view to get the product and play it.  The colours are used wisely in this picture and caught my eye very fats when seeing it.
