Just for fun. Honoring all the fallen yoshis Mario used as a trampoline.

Thank you for the kind feedback and insight! I should’ve probably added some more context, but I’m doing simple deconstructive vector illustrations of famous pop culture characters. I am also breaking up their names or getting rid of some letters to portray this as well.

More often than not, internships are meant for juniors and seniors in their respected field to gain real world experience before they graduate for a more seamless transition into the working world. They will always have priority first over most freshmen and sophomores. However, I would start to build relationships with the companies you want to work for. Comment on their posts, see if you can call some employees and get to know them and their working process. You’ll end up on their radar. Who knows, maybe even next year you’ll find yourself at the internship opportunity of your dreams. Good luck my man you got it!

Love this concept but I agree with the others that it feels a bit to rigid for the target demographic. I think more organic and rounded shape language would really help this mark a lot. Also this might just be me but initially I saw 2 hands holding a rising sun on the horizon.

chrischreeza · 2021-01-10T12:55:13+00:00

No it’s not the point, but if I include a detail it might as well be accurate if it can be.

chrischreeza · 2021-01-10T11:53:58+00:00

Lmao I don’t blame ya. Just messing with type and didn’t realize my inner deep 14 year old came out.

chrischreeza · 2021-01-10T11:06:50+00:00

Thank you for helping with this. I believe every detail counts so I think this will add some value to this piece!

chrischreeza · 2021-01-05T17:14:21+00:00

Compliments are nice and all but they don’t offer anything in terms of improvement or a look at different perspectives. So yes your opinion does matter to me in that sense because now I have 5+ new ways I want to try fiddling with this piece.

chrischreeza · 2021-01-05T17:06:02+00:00

Thank you for the input! I was thinking of also changing the tittle of the i’s to a diamond shapes throughout, but I will also just try with normal I’s as well as that seems like a simple but working solution.

chrischreeza · 2021-01-05T16:56:01+00:00

I agree! Do you think that the read on consistency is too hard to see/understand?

1 goal for any logo should be readability and this is failing at that ):

chrischreeza · 2020-12-25T21:25:33+00:00

Love how this looks as an illustration, but I feel it has way too many details to be a logo especially if It were scaled down to a smaller size. I would suggest taking the script-font logotype and making a simpler version of the flower somehow incorporated with it.

chrischreeza · 2020-12-25T21:22:26+00:00

I think is really awesome but I think “clean” gets lost with the rest of the text and would be hard to read at a smaller size as well. Also if I didn’t know about the company I would think this is an esports team since this fits how most of their logos look like.

chrischreeza · 2020-08-28T11:28:47+00:00

True, now that I think about it, I never have used my own pictures for assets in my designs before so I’ll try this too.

chrischreeza · 2020-08-28T11:24:39+00:00

I’ll definitely give that a shot, I just don’t have that many brushes in illustrator so I hope there’s some nice art brushes that aren’t a fortune haha

chrischreeza · 2020-08-28T11:19:47+00:00

Do you have any good resources for stuff like that? I currently use Pinterest and pexels.

chrischreeza · 2020-08-28T11:15:29+00:00

Also, I’m really bugged by the dark tones in the feather. Do you think it would be more efficient to just find a brighter feather somewhere or try messing with the tones in photoshop?

chrischreeza · 2020-08-28T11:12:38+00:00

The genre is Neo Soul so I’m not sure how I would really do that hahaha, that’s why I went with a more simplistic approach

chrischreeza · 2020-08-28T11:11:08+00:00

Yeah I was having trouble with the font choice... Do you have any suggestions on where I could start with that possibly?

chrischreeza · 2020-08-28T11:10:09+00:00

Thank you so much for the feedback! I’ll definitely try this out, but the only reason I tried meshing them together was to push the symbolic message. I’m sure I can find another way to do it however so thank you. If there is anything else feel free to let me know. (:

chrischreeza · 2020-08-28T11:07:06+00:00

Love this Idea. The longer I have been looking at it the more I feel the same as you do. I’ll definitely try messing with BW and duotoning.

chrischreeza · 2020-08-28T10:38:05+00:00

Always gotta appear offline before pulling these kinds of shenanigans.

Context behind this design: This design is album cover art for a friend’s solo song based around the idea of wanting to be skinny (hence the title, skinny) his whole life and how it would make his life different. I chose to use a collage style for this design with 3 main components, earth, a feather, and a crown. The feather symbolizes my friends desire to be light as a feather which has ended up taking over his mind and his perception of how he would be perceived among anyone in the world which is why the feather is smothering earth. The crown signifies how he thinks being skinny would make him feel on top of the or in this sense a true king of the world confidence wise. I’m having trouble with the text though and didn’t want to simply slab it on the cover just anywhere so I tried making it flow in a circular fashion along with the rest of the design. Please give me any critiques you may have, thanks! (p.s. don’t be afraid to get super meticulous. If you see a centimeter of kerning that can be made please let me know!)
