Create your very own logo!

Use the "Random Business Generator" to get a name idea for your logo.
- Examples of names you might get from the random business generator:
  - Adventurous Backpack Guild
  - Precious Syrup Agency
  - Wild Snowboard Collective
- The name I got randomly while recording this class was the "Mysterious Energy Coalition" and I show you how I came up with the design for this and how to do the same for your own logos.
Follow along to learn the skills you need to make the logo on your own
Post your sketches (work in progress)
Post your final logos (you can do more than one)!

This is a unique class project, in that it is essentially a "choose your own adventure!"

The project for this course is going to be a ton of fun and probably a little bit ridiculous.

Here's what we're going to do. We are going to take a spreadsheet, which I know immediately sounds boring, but hear me out, we're taking a spreadsheet that's got a bunch of different random words on it. And then we're going to use a number generator to grab these different words and create a completely random, super custom logo. So what's cool about this is you can either follow along and do the exact same thing that I do to create the logo and learn the skills you need to do this.

Or you can create your own custom logo based on the same styles that I'm showing you. So maybe the words that I pick, you create your own custom words that are random. And we go from there, or perhaps you already have a client who wants you to make a logo right now, or maybe you knew a friend that has a business they're starting and you want to help them out and volunteer and maybe make a logo for them.

Please make sure to download the files here if you want to create the exact same logo as I am teaching.

Also, be sure to share your work with everyone - it is always so fun to see what my students bring to life!

Here's a hoodie mockup I made with the logo I designed in this class. I used this template from Envato Elements if you want to check it out: https://elements.envato.com/hoodie-sweater-mockup-23GJMNV
