I really enjoyed seeing your professional work, and no less important was the full understanding of the client, the listening and comprehension that goes beyond... Very impressive.

I'm so pleased to hear you go through the same process and struggle before you find the right solution. Often I go through the process of questioning myself, can't find the right font, it can be painful. But have learnt it's about pushing through.

Even after YEARS of doing this I still get stuck very often. For me it’s a sign that I’m really wrestling with the concepts and making sure what I present is the best option I can come up with 🫶

Wonderful video. Brilliant logo. At about 20 mins in I liked the lower case better, and was so happy to see that was kept in the end. The mockups with the models through the logo looks so chic Jaw dropped. 😊

@38:40 I JUST experienced a similar thing with my recent project. After spending days trying to create logo concepts for my client, I thought you finally found the one 😂😂 only to wake up one day and HATE IT SO MUCH. I remember having a mental breakdown, feeling so demotivated and like I failed. Then a day or two before the presentation, I sketched the logo again but this time took a complete different direction and wow, loved it, my clients absolutely loved it too!

Amazing work, thanks for sharing. I really felt the uncertainty at the deadline, it was so stressful and at the same time, I felt your relief, to do what you had to do, despite the little time for the presentation. Well done, I passed something similar but after the presentation, I had to make another to prove that it would be better.

Amazing work, Rachel! How do you do the effect of the image and the monogram at 47:35? Thank you for sharing!

@rachelhurry3449 5 ай бұрын

I popped the logo vector over the image then erased the bits I wanted using the eraser tool in Illustrator and then just zoomed in to clean up the lines 😊 If I was doing it properly though I’d use photoshop for a more clean look, but for the mockups this worked great 😊

Since there were so many things to get printed (different kinds of printing too, for stickers, labels, fabrics...), how did you manage to be sure about the colors? I didn't see you picking pantones, so were you 100% sure that those CMYK would look good? Some colors look so different in CMYK, so do you deal with this issue? Also, do you use Adobe RGB or sRGB on illustrator/photoshop?

@rachelhurry3449 6 ай бұрын

We did do pantones later on 😊 and I always recommend to my clients that they try and budget for printing samples if at all possible to test colour. So after printing a few samples we selected the right tones and moved ahead with official printing 😊
