Professional Logo Design - Adobe Illustrator cs6 (Arise) Video Lecture | How to Design a Logo in Adobe Illustrator: For Beginners and Beyond

hey guys welcome back from the exciting
tutorial of cretin process and in this
video we'll be designing this logo and
this logo has got a very unique style in
the top you can see there's a pointed
shape which looks like a peak and it has
got a nice glossy effect and as we go
down there are few more shapes which is
very unique and it looks like a feather
with different shades of color and with
little transition in color it has giving
out a very nice effect so we were
designing this logo in falling stairs
first we understand what is the basic
structure of this logo and we'll
construct that using our basic shapes
then we'll do some little bit adjustment
with our rotate tool and using the
rulers and every other aspects which is
required then we'll use the shape
builder tool to create these each shapes
and then finally with a dubbed accreting
colors and add the text so let's begin
the tutorial first we select the ellipse
tool and create our circle and give it
some stroke thickness whether that's
black and remove the fill color and
after we'll keep this here and with
we'll bring out the ruler to control our
and bring out a ruler and it should be
from here Center and from here also keep
it at the center and we'll bring one
more and keep it in the middle and one
more that should be in the middle of
there two guidelines like that now the
reason why we are using this grid says
we need to make sure that this point
should be starting from here and this
point point this as the peak point
should be at this point so that's the
important so that's begun so we'll
duplicate this circle ctrl c ctrl F and
bring this down like that with a shape
rest you can bring it down straight and
after that just scale it down for the
ship press from this a just as much
there should be coinciding so you can
see it forms a shape like this now
duplicate this control C control F
and with a routine to keep the anchor
point at this point where the two guide
lines intersect and just click and drag
and rotate it to an angle and after that
with a selection to just kill this up
from here with a ship pressed with a
ship pressed you can see it is scaling
up but this point is at the same point
so we need that so we'll just give this
up a little bit long and again with the
rota to make sure the anchor point is
there and repeat it and it makes sure
it's at like this the intersection
should be here once you have achieved
that we'll do a few more stuff so after
this we'll duplicate this circle once
controls with the alt you would drag it
out put the gated and make sure to keep
it at this second grid which is there
and this show point should be here where
the guidelines and these curve intersect
like that and after that well just
rotate this to an angle with the road it
would keep the anchor point there and
just rotate it one angle like that
little bit lower and like that does much
and when your selection will just kill
this up with the from this side like
that and this go is for this portion
tesco coming out like here this is going
to be that and we'll duplicate this one
once control C can do that and scale it
up and you can see this is the other
curve which is coming out like that so
this curve is going to visit this one
this outer edge and after that you can
remove all the guidelines select
everything and with the shape where it
will just select out the pieces which we
need so this is the piece for this one
this is the back piece here you can see
and
this is the beak one here this is the
pink one and rest we can just combine it
and this is the back one so just
combined it properly like that this one
is this one edge so it's selected and
this one just combined
after you have separated everything we
can select this and delete it up and we
are laughs with this this and this just
fill it for some different colors so
that we can see what's going on there
and after that we'll do make this pieces
so we'll make that we're using this
control C control app duplicated and
keep the rotate angle put a tool here
and just click and rotate it to an angle
and after that when your selection to
just scale it up from this like that and
you can see the main anchor point is
always there so you don't need to worry
about that just make sure like that now
duplicate this control C control - keep
de repeat hang a point there properly
and just drag it out like that and now
with the selection tool and just get it
up in such a way that lets look like
this okay now once you're back at that
select all the three arrange two or
maybe we need to do one more stuff here
you see there's a nice curve here so we
need to create that so create the using
the ellipse tool here so create a circle
of certain this much radius they move
the FL color for a while that we can see
and after that bring this for the ship
red just drag and bring it here like
that and you can see so this is this is
the curve which is going to create that
nice smooth curve here so we'll just
select all the three the Cove and the to
say faces the shape ability to just make
this one
fill it up some different color so that
we can see what's going on there like
that and select this to the alert bilir
and this one illegal and you're going to
read this or you can select all the
three pieces arranged to front and let's
fill up with the colors so and we are
left with one more stuff here with the
pen tool will create that beeps fast I
like that so select click here click
here like that and remove the fill color
for a while select these with the shape
builder tool make this one object and
make this other object and this the
leader and let's fill up with the color
so select this peak with the are picker
with the alt and shift pressed and
select this color v4 selection tool with
the eye picker part shift select this
color feel select this other piece with
our picker with alt pressed select this
color the selection time picker select
it go
v4 selection i picker or ensure select
the color selected so object with the
article fill T color and last we left
with this small piece so it's like that
with the eye picker or shift so you're
spraying it off and once you have got
all the greeting colors in the proper
places now it's time to adjustment so
with your gradient tool select the
object with it G is the shortcut for
gradient of G and just apply it in the
correct order so when you try to talk
like that
select this G bring it there you can
just scale it up like that
selectors gee we need to bring this
little bit out like that and you can
just scale this up a little bit more
like that selection to G for gradient
and it should be like this selection to
G for graded like this selection to G
for gradient and apply properly maybe
like this so once you have done that we
are left with one more last piece here G
from light to dark that's yellow to
green so once we have applied already
creating color in the proper places
we'll do last step here we'll select
these three pieces and we'll adjust
their stroke colors so here in the
stroke will change the stroke color so
we'll just go in there and make it a
little bit darker or maybe lighter we'll
make it a bit lighter so that we can see
the glossy effective you would see like
that now last thing we are left with is
will apply D text so that's type out the
text or the T a RI as the eyes and let's
apply the font which is there a table
this is D language which I don't
understand else TDL this is the font
which you can find in a table
illustrator font collection and that's
just applied and let's increase the size
to around 26 maybe and place it in their
proper place finally we have designed
this logo and in this video tutorial we
have learned how to create a unique
style logo using the basic shapes but
arranging in an unique order I hope you
