The google logo is a simple logo but there was a lot of thought behind it. The logo needed to show that the company was a search engine only. The company decided to make a simple logo with colors that represent child's play. They made the letters certain colors because they wanted them to look light but also have weight. The font was carefully considered because they wanted it to be sophisticated but also have some humor. The google logo has been great for the company and it hasn't changed since the day they launched it.

This last saturday i went to an e-Comm competition called eMagine. This is a regional competition for anyone who want to enter their graphic design, video, web, or broadcasting work. The whole festival is set up like the oscars so everyone dresses up and there are different announcers who present the winers in each category. There are many students from Olathe northwest who enter their work and a lot of them win. This event is very fun and a good way to get your work out in the world.



My poster is a movie poster for 101 dalmatians. This movie is about a woman who tries to steal 101 little Dalmatian dogs. I added a dog because that what she was trying to steal and then i have her pulling the dogs leash to show how she tries to steal the dog. Lastly I put Cruella de vil's famous coat. My poster is very different from Saul Bass' poster. His poster is very modern and simple and mine is a little more animated but also very simple. Saul bass used the colors red black and white just like I used. I think those colors represent the movie very well because the dogs are black and white and then Cruella de vil wears a lot of red and her hair is black and white.
