I decided to create a narrative story in a sense. For the first part I am explaining how I got the idea of wanting to become a publicist and the second part I am explaining why people should invest in publicists and the importance of publicists. I tried to come up with something that promoted my business and why people should use my business more than others but I couldn’t really come up with anything so if anyone has any ideas that would be greatly appreciated. When creating this I had a tough time deciding what to make for an audio story because I feel like audio would be hard for anybody’s topic unless they are just talking about their topic in general but with a little thinking I figured out what I was going to do. I have an older computer so it was a little hard for me to use the software because the program ran really slow I couldn’t record the audio on my computer due to my computer being a older, so it was kind of difficult to record the audio on my phone then transfer it on my computer once I got the audio on my computer I wanted music to go in the background of me talking so it wouldn’t be boring just me talking on a audio track. I feel as though my audio story may be a little boring still even with the music so if you have any ideas feel free to give advice or if you think the music is kind of distracting please give advice how to improve or if you think I should just completely remove the music please let me know. I’ve had the thought of majoring in communications since I was in 10th grade and over time my ideas of what I wanted to do with a communications degree blossomed into me wanting to become a publicist.

One of my audio clips is me explaining why I decided to pursue becoming a publicist and the story behind my topic.

I created a 3d pencil with my business name going down the pencil and I put a blue circle around the pencil with entertainment publicist going around the inside of the circle. I created this because my topic is being an entertainment publicist which they make statements etc. for athletes, singers, big events and to make sure that they look good in the public eye. I didn’t really look at logos before creating this because I didn’t want to accidentally make a logo that looked similar to ones that were already created. The feedback I received was to add a little bit of ombre or possibly add a pen or another element to the logo and add a phrase or saying to the logo to give it the spice it needed. I took the feedback I received into consideration and added a gradient to the main part of the pencil and the lead. I also decided to keep it simple and instead of adding a pen I added a circle so it wasn’t too bland but there isn’t too much going on. I use the redesign process because at first I was going to make the pencil a pen but then I had a hard time trying to incorporate my business name which I felt is an important part to my logo because if I was to put this logo on my business cards the first thing someone would want to see is what’s my business name and second of all what my business does. I created all of the elements in my logo on illustrator I figured out how to make 3d shapes since the tutorials didn’t show us how which was difficult but the best way to figure things out is to just explore so that’s what I did was explore the software. Creating everything else in my logo was pretty easy because of the tutorials.

I created a 3d pencil with my business’ name going down the pencil. I created this because my topic is being an entertainment publicist which they make statements etc. for athletes, singers, big events and to make sure that they look good in the public eye. I didn’t really look at any logos, so I didn’t really have any ideas of what a logo should look like and I also didn’t want to accidentally make a logo that looked like one that was created. My logo doesn’t have much complexity to it or a lot meaning behind so ideas would be greatly appreciated because I feel like my logo needs some spice to it or just a totally new logo so ideas would greatly be appreciated but overall I think my logo represents my topic because of publicist do a lot of writing but it could use something to make it stand out more. I use the redesign process because at first I was going to make the pencil a pen but then I had a hard time trying to incorporate my business name which I felt is an important part to my logo because if I was to put this logo on my business cards the first thing someone would want to see is what’s my business name and second of all what my business does. I created all of the elements of my logo in illustrator it was difficult for me because none of the illustrator tutorials that we had to do for our assignment showed us how to make the shapes 3d so I had to explore illustrator and figure it out once I figure out to make them 3d it was hard for me to get the shapes all aligned (which they are still kind of off) but I underestimated my logo because I didn’t think it was going to be that difficult to make the shape since we did something similar in tutorials but it made it harder because I turned the shapes into 3d shapes.

 With my sketch I am going to try to accomplish a 3-D effect. my logo is a pencil but except instead of having an eraser as the top I want to be a cube and have my business name on it the reason why it’s shaded because I want the cube to be pink like an eraser and the letters as a cut out and then on the side of the pencil it says entertainment publicist because that’s what my topic is about.
