researching for my institutional logos.

FONTS.
Here is a picture from Photoshop which i have developed. I have chosen four different texts i liked off the website 'www.dafont.com' (below). There is a range of unique qualities to each font. Number one font is very formal and reminds me of roman writing. Font number two looks like the letters are made out of a film strip, i like this one because it will realte to the film trailer i am making and it looks professional and exciting. Font number three is small and interesting. You can obviously make the text bigger and change it around but i like how tight and together this text is formed. Its in italics and it looks very professional and script like. And font number four is really effective, i like how it looks scribbled. I think it would stand out on the page compared to the other three.

LOGOS.
I have developed a few different institutional logos. Here are some of the first draft ones i have produced. I have produced a few because i wasnt sure on the style I was going for.



I have developed and edited some of the above images to the best of my ability.



Here is the first stage i have made for my logo for my film title. And below is how I've produced it into further detail. I have chosen the black and white clouds to be behind the word 'one', because it's representing how dull and sad it is just to have one shot at love. And the word 'love' has colour added to it and the colour is back in the sky, this represents the happiness of love.





As i have been looking through different Rom Com trailers i have started to realise that the film name logos themselves are very simple but effective. Here are a few examples from the genre of romantic comedies.









As i have noticed this i might change my logo for 'one love' as i think i've added too much detail and it looks messy and un-organised. i simply might add a black background and colour my writing so it stands out more. I have looked at horror genre trailers and their logos are more effective and detailed. I think this is because they have to give a more scary effect in the writing as to their trailer. Rom Coms tend to put more emotion into their trailer rather to the writing, The text is normally quite girly and simple so it is easy to understand. I will still use the same font as i like the style of the 'scribble' effect but i will edit it to the best of my ability to make it look more for a romantic comedy genre.






Final Cuts for my logos.

I have encorporated my final logos focusing on my specific genre of Romantic Comedy. This is why I have chosen the coloue scheme and how plain and simple I have created my logos and film titles.
