So far, I am making good progress on my project. Besides a few problems, not much has changed since my previous post. For instance, the first two logos I made somehow got deleted off of my computer. However, I remembered the designs enough so it was pretty easy to quickly re-do them. Considering the progress I have made, I believe I will definitely be finished on time with this project. So far, these are the teams I have redesigned so far (and renamed some of them):
- Washington Redskins
- Chicago Blackhawks
- Cleveland Indians
- Utah Utes
- Atlanta Braves
So, the ones I still need to work on are the following:
- San Diego State Aztecs
- Kansas City Chiefs (If there's time)
I am still in the process of finding a few more teams that have a racist, or controversial team name/logo. So, if you have any suggestions, please let me know.
Over these past couple of weeks, I have learned that many sports logos are pretty similar. What I mean by this is that they all often incorporate the first letter or entire name of the team, and a small graphic that represents this. When I break it down into this form, it makes it a lot easier to brainstorm logos.
I have also learned (about myself) to save early and often. Even when you think something is saved, you should double-check it before losing your work.
