CBL LOGO-1 “Making an original logo wasn’t easy as I thought.” - Gerardo Martinez This artwork image was made in Adobe Illustrator. It is my first revised attempt to make an original logo for the Community Based Community based program at Saint Xavier University. Our requirements for making the logo eligible to be used were the including of the letters “CBL”, colors of the university, and look flexible in large or small size. I used a rectangular shape to form the base of the logo so it can be easier for the logo to look like an icon application if it were to be used as one. Then, I colored the base skarlet red and formed another but smaller rectangular shape over th base and colored it gold. These are colors are the main colors of SXU. Then, I created five people shaped figures and three light bulbs. I colored the people and the light bulbs because gray is a SXU color. Finally, I inserted each letter with each light bulb to finish making the logo. The people represent the community apesct of the program. The light ulbs represent the learning aspect of the program. I used these images to help the logo symbolize the program their goals. The idea of this logo is to show how I would picture the program when I read their title “Community Based Learning”. I wanted to use my own inspirations to come up with the symbols for the logo. I want the audience to be able see how my logo represents the community based program through the symbols withi the logo. Also, I want the audience to be able to think “Community Based Learning” when they see this logo. An attemt to make an original logo for the Community Based Learning Program at SXU. 24 - Uncanny Subjects Uncanny Subjects - 25
