Designing our logo...some more artistic work! exciting stuff...

Chloe and I were on task to find our group a logo, as Michaela and Alex were focusing on our storyboards; however, we all decided on our final decision. To begin with we looked at two possible logos for our company. With our production name "M.A.S.C Productions" (using all of our initials) we felt the irony of it sounding like the word "Mask" so we have decided to have masks as our actual logo. Here are the two we looked at and what we decided. 



We took this image from Google Images and we thought the black ribbons didn't go well, so we uploaded the image into Photo shop. Whilst editing the ribbons out, the editing left some black marks around the mask, making the image look less effective as it was with the ribbon. As a group we decided we didn’t like the masks without the ribbon therefore all 4 of us decided to find another mask.  Chloe said she could find another picture from a site called Deviant Art (http://www.deviantart.com/) and found the picture below. 




We found this picture on this site -  http://browse.deviantart.com/?q=Masks&order=9&offset=24#/dxd4v3. We emailed the owner (voorikvergeet ) and asked permission to use the picture. On Deviant Art there are certain rules people need to follow by, as Chloe is member on the site for over 2 years she has learned to respect other artists work. One of the rules which is appreciated a lot is to ask the artist if it can be used for there what ever reason, unless told by the artist in their artists comments that it can be used.



 Here is the final outcome of our logo. The black background, and crisp white masks and the use of red writing gives an insight into the genre of the film; a psychological thriller. We are very pleased with our logo and hope that the irony and wittiness catches the eye of the audience.
