This article is for those who order a logo and do not know how to evaluate the quality of its design. Now we will talk about the seven most common mistakes. If there are more than two of them in the finished logo, it is better to redo it all over again. Misake #1: Composition Unsuccessful compositions are visible even to non-professionals. Asymmetry, elements that are too close or too far away, and falling parts of the logo are immediately noticeable. One of the common compositional errors is the incorrect arrangement of elements. UBS company logo Mistake #2: Colors Color problems in logos arise for a variety of reasons: too much or too little contrast, saturation, or mismatched hues.

This post is for those who choose a color for their logo and don't know where to start. We have compiled tips that practicing designers follow. There will be no recommendations "do not use red because it causes rage." Tip #1: Don't Give Color Meaning Many people think that colors have some meaning. Allegedly, green colors are suitable for eco-brands, blue for IT companies, and yellow for fast food. There is also an opinion that colors evoke emotions: green calms, and yellow amuses. In reality, everything is more boring. Color means nothing. Red is just red, not a symbol of aggression or anything else. That is why it is used by such different brands as Netflix, Marlboro and Lego. Tip #2: choose a color that is different from competitors Since the brand competes in the market with other brands, the task of the logo is to be a distinctive sign. For example, this is what the logos of most clothing brands look like. And this is what the Lacoste logo looks like. Whose logo ...

  Only 1% of registered authors make good money on the stock. All the rest leave the stocks disappointed and tell everywhere that stocks are a scam and you won’t earn money there. Stocks are a full-time job. Stocks can make money. Stocks are not passive income, you have to work hard and produce a commercially valuable product. Let's look at the reasons why many stockers have low earnings. Reason one: laziness and inefficiency Loading 20 jobs into a portfolio and waiting for millions in fees is not a money-making strategy, it is a misunderstanding of the market. Stocks are a full-time job. You need to consistently and regularly upload new work to your portfolio. Don't sit around refreshing the ShutterStock page while waiting for sales. Go take pictures, draw, scan. Look at the sales statistics when you upload a new batch of works. Reason two: poor quality of work Quality in photography and illustration is subjective, so you may not always be able to adequately assess the level o...

Thousands of companies around the world use similar logos. But brand owners do not want their logo to look like someone else's, and they are ready to choose even an unaesthetic sign - as long as it is unique. Don't be afraid to use a logo that looks like another company's logo. 1. If the logo has a simple image, similarities with another logo cannot be avoided The number of simple figures is limited. An apple, a circle, a square, a heart, an arrow, a tick and other simple graphic signs have a recognizable shape. Despite the fact that designers try to interpret the signs in their own way, a circle drawn by five different people is still a circle. It will look like another circle - and there is nothing to worry about. The simpler the shape, the higher the chance that someone has already used it in a logo. This is fine. 2. There are thousands of companies around the world with similar logos. The Pepsi logo is similar to the Korean Air logo. The Ford logo is similar to the Carr...

When starting out, it is very difficult for a photographer to choose a niche. After all, there are a large number of directions. In each of them you want to try yourself and achieve success. True, not everything is so easy. For example, there is quite a lot of competition in wedding photography. Advertising photography requires special equipment and knowledge.

It is assumed that you have a serious camera, and you want to get a high-quality picture. How to take a picture of yourself? This question is asked by people who are going to travel alone and those who need content for their blog on a daily basis.
