LOGO DESIGN



A logo is what helps distinguish a brand from its competitors, so it's important that the image stands out from the rest — something many brands struggle with.In my Opinion, a logo is an image, but it’s also an introduction to a brand.
 The logo must reach a specific audience and when designing, you must keep this in mind. Write down what you think about the brand; perhaps even create a mood board with imagery that reminds you of the brand’s ideology.
More than anything, know what your logo means.
 Every logo has some kind of a history, filled with meaning and purpose. Take Apple, for instance — the fruit is missing a "byte" Or wikipedia
, an unfinished globe of puzzle pieces covered with glyph from different writing systems. Both logos are simple, but have an added twist that circles back to brand ideology. 

here are some logos that I've Designed:


This Logo was Designed for an South African Project



This Logo Designed for an Indian TV Show.

















 

CHARACTER DESIGN



When you are on to Character Design, think about your audience. Character design aimed at young children, for example, are typically designed around basic shapes and bright colours. Exaggerating the defining features of your character design will help it appear larger than life. Exaggerated features will also help viewers to identif y the character's key qualities. Exaggeration is key in cartoon caricatures and helps emphasise certain personality traits. If your character is strong, don't just give it normal-sized bulging arms, soup them up so that they're five times as big as they should be!

Below is the character Designed by me for a Music Channel as a Mascot
:





This Rough Visualization of a Character is based on Indian Mythology, Younger Brother of Buddha, Devdatta Development.

OBSERVATION IN PUBLIC


People watching involves observing people, you may be travelling in Train or Bus or you may be sitting in Hotel or Garden...to get a feel for the beauty and rhythm of the community around us. People watching is amazing, you will have some of the funniest laughs ever with you and your friends. Especially in a place full of bad scruffs. For some people watchers, it's about creativity, using the moments of watching to try and guess at another person's story just from mere observation, and embracing the fun of what is, in effect, an amateur social science.
                         
It may take some time for an amateur to become a good observer specially for an  artist..it is
very important to observe & Notice people moving around & get the essence of their Character
& use them as reference in your Art.

People watchers observe speech in action, relationship interactions, body language, and activities; it's also common to include listening in to conversations. Indeed, all the senses can be put to good use when people watching, even down to trying to guess a person's perfume or aftershave as they walk by. This may also include the character's , i.e. , People's attitude Like For an Example :One Guy is showing off his new Jacket And another guy is Blushing while talking to some girl.
A Person of middle age walk by, his attitude says  it all that what may be his Designation, whether he is a Businessman or a Government Employee.
