As I've said before, I've decided to name my production company "MaiaMade Media" (LOVE the alliteration). For every birthday and holiday, I always make handmade cards for my friends and family. When I was younger, I saw that one of my family friends wrote "HannaMade" on the back of her handmade cards and decided to steal that idea because I LOVED it. Now, I write "MaiaMade" on the back of each of my cards as my little watermark.
Logically, I've decided to use Canva to create my production logo. I want it to reflect creativity with my logo, so I was thinking of using a paintbrush, or possibly music notes.
I also created a Pinterest board with fonts and art that I could possibly use, because in the past I've found super ones on there before.
I started my logo design in school, but Pinterest doesn't work with the school wifi, so the first version was a VERY rough idea. I basically just picked a color that I knew I wanted to incorporate into my logo. Because I realized that Pinterest doesn't work in school, I decided just to wait until I got home to continue.

Once I was home, I decided to scrap the yellow gradient all together because I didn't really like it. Instead, I used some of the designs from Pinterest to create what you see below. I wanted to try and use the bunnies somehow, but couldn't figure out how, though I ended up using the notebook paper as the background in my final product.

After I deleted the bunnies, I thought it might be cool if I had a hand writing out "MaiaMade Media". I found the pastel pink and blue striped wallpaper for the background and thought I could fully lean in towards the DIY and scrap-booking type of vibe. I didn't really like how the hand looked and couldn't properly animate it to look like it was writing.

I also wanted to add a little star character, so I found one off of Pinterest and just replaced the bottom left star with the one I chose. I animated this star to wiggle around a little bit and I really liked the fact that it is looking upwards, as if it's looking at the font. The stars also reinforce the scrap-booking vibe because they are like stickers.

All I needed to do at this point was find a handwriting font that was legible and one that I actually liked. This brings us to my finished production logo!! I'm absolutely thrilled with it because I think it is so so cute and represents me and my "branding" if you will. I added the sound of a pen writing to bring in the idea from v.3 to make the logo a bit more interactive. This also kind of reminds me of the intro of a YouTube vlog in the best way possible. The scrap-booking idea that I ended up with perfectly reflects how I wanted to incorporate creativity like I said in the beginning.
I hope you enjoyed seeing the process of my production logo creation and I'll catch ya on my next post!!
