Logo design and reflection

This is a hand drawn picture of my logo, the initial design contains a mouth smilling, my production company name curved like on a circle surface and some shading at the bottom. After putting the hand drawn image into Adobe Illustrator, I used the line tool, curvature tool to make the basic lines of the logo and the shape tool to make the circle of the logo. I later added shading on to the circle and a layer of gums around the teeth. I started changing the fonts of the letter of the logo with a big font with a black outline so that people can see it better in front of a white background.

After doing the basic shape and coloring of the picture using the shape maker tool, I found that the logo is a bit plain so I had a idea of giving it a moon texture. I started by putting an image of the moon texture on a circle the same size as the logo's circle then I put it into the logo as one of the bottom layers and increase the trasparent level from 100% to around 50% so that the texture still have the shading of the white circle and texture of the moon.

In my opinion, my logo's name blends in with the moon texture a bit too much when it is far away, I will problerly change the color of the letters or increase the size the outline of the letters.

Production design and Location recce

 This is my production design.

Bedroom will mainly be used for background purposes with a few exception of the bathroom and closet. The classroom will mainly be use for background purposes. The main character will also interact with the lockers right next to the classroom. The bedroom will be quite messy to show that the main character is like a typical high school student the color will be varied between the time of day, it will need to be relatively vibrant. For the classroom, It will be bright inside, varied on time of day, it will be quite clean with props relating to classroom like chairs, tables, boards, backpacks and more.

This is my location recce.
