How To Prepare Logo Files for Clients

Рет қаралды 348,017

Күн бұрын

In this video I'll be demonstrating how you can use Adobe Illustrator to prepare and generate all of the proper file formats and variations for a logo design.
This video was created to accompany an article I wrote back in 2018 about preparing logo files for clients. If you'd like more details about the file formats and variations I include and why they're necessary, be sure to check out that post here: logosbynick.com/logo-files-fo...
To generate a ZIP folder at the end of the lesson I used a free piece of software known as 7Zip. You can download that here: www.7-zip.org/download.html
If you want to learn more about logo design, be sure to check out my Logo Design Academy - an interactive 18-part video course where you will learn my entire creative process for coming up with logo ideas and implementing them: logosbynick.com/learn/

It never ceases to amaze me how wonderful people are at sharing their knowledge. Thank you very much Nick for taking the time to pass on your knowledge and basically train your audience. Not only is your tutorial excellent for the how-to aspect of illustrator but also good methodical working habits for newbies. I truly appreciate it. I'm now a subscriber. :)

I usually hate this process of finishing off a design project and you have just blown my mind! So simple! I cannot believe how much time and effort I have wasted doing this on previous projects. Thank you so much for such a well explained and easy to follow video!

This is just what I needed!! I've been growing as a graphic designer on my freetime and really didn't have a good understanding of how to set up these types of things for clients. This is more than helpful!!!

Very useful tut. What really grinds my gears is you do all this thoughtful work for your client and they don't give it to printers when they need promo stuff done. They just give us low res jpegs. Remind your clients to save these files in a place they can access whenever they need things printed.

Bruh, your video came in CLUTCH! I learned so much!! Can you believe I sent a zip file of all the files at once in no separate folders? This is way better! Also, your class is ONLY $17?! How?! I was definitely expecting like $500 something, haha.
