CBL LOGO-2 “Making another original logo wasn’t easy the second time .” - Gerardo Martinez This artwork image was made in Adobe Illustrator. It is my second 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. Firts, I colored the base skarlet red and applied a gradiant to make it look like a 3D icon. Then, I inserted the letters CBL and colored each with the different colors gold, gray, and skarlet red. Finally I drew 3 poelpe like figures and a book titled “SXU-Community Based Learning”. Then , I finish with the coloring of both images with skarlet red, gold, and gray. The color gray also represents SXU. The people figures represent the community aspect of the program. The book represents 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. 26 - Uncanny Subjects An attemt to make an original logo for the Community Based Learning Program at SXU.
