your tutorials have helped start my own company and brand. thank you so much man for helping me, someone who cant afford more college to learn this.

ATTENTION EVERYONE!! Make sure you zoom in and out 56 times like this guy before beginning your logo. This WILL NOT WORK if you skip this crucial step.

STOP FUCKING WITH THE ZOOM!!!! haha

Dunno if someone had already pointed this out, but there's actually an easier way to smoothen(?) the edges like those on the last step. I found this by coincidence, there's this tool right below the Move Tool on the Toolbar that looks exactly like Move Tool, but colored white. To use it, click the tool then click on the logo. You will see the path highlighted and on the edges/corners, you will notice there are white dots inside. You can drag those dots to give the corners radius. P.S I'm using AI CC so idk if it works the same way on other versions. And sorry I can't describe it any better because English isn't my mother-tongue

I think this deserves more than 1 million views! !that's creativity, I may know how to draw each part separately, but the hard work is to combine them to get the final result, thank you for these details.

funny how ive watched about 5 different youtube users videos on tutorials and logo designing and text artistry, yet i always come back to this one for the simple things i need to know that the "INTRO TO ILLUSTRATOR" videos cant provide. Awesome video, need some more simple ones like these for the newbs like me! Keep em coming

From one designer to another, you are incredibly talented. its hard for me to be impressed, but you have done so. your attention to detail is amazing. Keep up the great work.

Good tutorial. Very helpful especially for a kind-of-new graphic designer. Thanks Mike Goldfield!

This tutorial was extremely helpful. 5 mins in and I don't even need to watch the rest, thanks

that was super easy to follow, even though you were moving through quickly, your soft tone and explanation of each step made this an easy watch! thank you!

Best Video for creating logos in adobe illustrator

hahaha that zooming n and out is driving me crazzzyyyyyy!

I see this vedio in 2020...very much useful

Just wow. Very helpful tutorial. Thanks for your video. . I also trying to do this.

Great for some techniques, mentions using Photoshop for logos, but if you want maximum usability for your clients, stick with Illustrator. nice finished product

Your opener is lovely!!

its good picking up new ways of doing things

So many petty comments. This video helped me a lot. Thank you!

awesome vid man I can't do the R trick thing I select shaper tool and select both circles and hold alt and left click nothing happen I'm using windows 10 and the latest AI

Dude, great video. Feel like an overnight pro already.

Omq that looks sick

This was great! Makes me feel like I CAN do this! Thank you

Damn I love this 🥺 think u so much. Now I don’t have to pay for no logo

Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us, good works waiting for new tutorials ......keep.......going................

Mike, you're a great teacher!

I never thought it is that much easy< thanks a lot

I love this tutorial for beginners at Illustrator, please make more tutorials, I subbed

I watch this in 2021 JUST AMAZING

This is amazing tutorial and definitely best way to learn new ways in creating logos like this! Impressed and subscribed. Deserves a lot more likes and views. :)

cant figure out why the "outline stroke" wont work for me on the R, everytime I use the shape builder tool to delete the stroke i dont want, it deletes the whole stroke...

Yikes. You need to explain more. "Click on that," "delete that," etc., doesn't help. Too fast, too little explanation of what you're clicking on. It's a cool method, but I can't follow it very easily. Maybe it's meant for non-beginners.

nice idea and perfectly explained...Thanks Mike

Want to start off by saying great video!!! Learned a lot from it... Thank You! But I have a problem... I can't seem to be able to delete the middle circle for the "R" at the beginning of the video. I've tried every possible way that I can think of but it's not working. Can you please explain here to me, step-by-step if possible, how to do it?? It would be of much help and appreciated. -JDC

soooooo inspirational man... I come here whenever I need a helping hand... love the vids keep up the great work man!

Thanks for the time you took making this, it was useful but man there were some more subtle operations which were not explained, you just mumbled something and did it in like a fraction of a second, took me a while to figure that stuff out. But I guess this is not a beginner tutorial. Anyway, thanks.

0:00-0:03 I dont know what it is called but *i think introduction* part is so cool :P

Just wish you could show us all how to do the type of method with all of letters of the alphabet. I am not very creative at these things!

Very well done video, gets to the point fast. Cheers!

this tutorial is rendered more difficult than it should be by inaccurate language, as well as actions performed on the fly, while you talk about something else. dont go about things as though you want to hide how you do them. also, objects and paths are not layers. dont call them layers. you say you move the diagonal of the R letter, when you are actually cloning it. slow down, describe what you do accurately, and account for every single action.

خدارو شکر عالی هستید خدارو شکر کنید که به اینجا رسیدید

_THIS IS NICE_

good job Mike

this was a pretty solid tutorial man thanks

i watch this in 2019 juuuust amaziiiing

wooow i got something thanks muk

very helpful your video, thanks

how did you do the alt then copy then drag? i what does the alt button do in illustrator , I press alt then you say "copy it" how do i copy it ? Ctrl C then Ctrl V ?

Interesting.. I never knew about that cutting tool. Going to mess with it now.

Mike plz show us more videos to create typography fonts

not quite sure how to do an O and make it look good because the hole is centered and it interrupts the center line you make in the start

Gonna have a seizure if you keep zooming in and out of the white background.

Démarche intéressante ! Merci pour ce tutoriel.

i love ur way to make that logo easy thank u :)

Great video watched other vids ob this and you were much better at getting the information across and a better design

please show us how to deal with long words (8-10 letters) like word : Challenges

Kinda hard to understand if you don't already know how to create a text logo in illustrator

Nice, thanks for all of the tips and inspiration!

it's so simple - it's brilliant!! Thank you))

Mike, you're incredibly creative, but I got very dizzy after watching your video, so maybe next time use the zoom in and zoom out a little bit less.
