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

hey guys welcome to another exciting
tutorial of creation process and in this
video we'll be preparing a logo in a
professional and step-by-step process so
here to make you understand I got a
design which I saw it and I prepared it
in Illustrator and in here we will
understand how this design has been
prepared in a professional way what was
the first step and what was the last
step while preparing this logo so we'll
discuss about that so let's study this
logo fast so here you can see there is a
circle with some thickness and there is
a piece of square or a rectangle with
the same thickness of the circle so
everything is planned everything is
measured so you don't do it without
measurement without value so we have to
keep that in mind while preparing this
and you can even notice that this part
is has been cut from here which is the
center of the circle and this part has
been cut which is the last edge of the
circle so these are the few things we
have noticed this this has to be
prepared with some proper way proper
step process the proper procedure this
is not made randomly so let's begin how
it has been made so first we will see
how normally people will try to make
this stuff so we will go to ellipse and
normally people will draw a circle cop
duplicate this control C control F and
scale it down and select put the object
and go to Pathfinder and subtract it and
you got the circle which looks like
similar to this but this is totally
wrong here you can see the thickness is
constant therefore the thickness of the
they know the thickness of the circle
that's why they know the thickness of
the rectangle or R square
but here you don't know what's the
thickness of these circles so your value
is
unmeasurable you can't measure it and if
you want to measure if you go to scale
and that's totally a difficult way so
everything goes with a flow so do that
will delete this fast we'll go to will
remove this fill color and give some
stroke color and let's give the stroke
with some thickness so I prefer sixty
points to draw this part and I draw
select the ellipse tool and click on the
blank area
you got a ellipse to elapsed palette
where you decide what should be the
width and what should be the height here
we need a circle so their height and
width width is going to be constant so
it's locked so let's give some around
200 points and click OK
so you got a circle with the stroke
thickness of 60 points and we know the
value so this is the first step we have
done now next there we can see is that
this piece of square it has the same
thickness as these circles so we know
the circle is of 60 points so we need
the stroke thickness of this square also
60 points so let's draw a square but we
have to keep that men keeping in mind
that this square has been made in a
proper way it is not that the square is
made big and it has been cut out we have
to see that now I think this Square has
been me is the length of D so I think
the whole diameter of the circle so
let's draw a square of the same length
of the diameter of the circle and two
doors go to draw the square just click
shift shift and drag out the mouth so
you got a proper Circle Square here so
you got the square and next step is we
see that it's at the center of the point
so make sure that let's bring this
square at the center of the circle and
we'll keep that in mind at this point
intersects the center of the circle so
we just drag this and
and bring it here and we you can see the
intersection here so here we go it's the
center of the circle and this has been
intersected so it has been done soon now
next step is we need a cut from here and
here so we need to cut here and here do
that we'll just select a line and draw a
line over it by clicking shift you get a
straight line and make sure that the
point the still this line should be
black and often thin maybe two points
because the we ended it's because it's
just though we need a line which should
cut from here so it's it's for
separation I have given black color so
in this way we make a line over here to
but it should be parallel to the edge so
we'll just take the line go to here and
we see that it's parallel and just shift
and drag out and you got the line so
after this what we need is we got all
the placements we are all our stops
right we got all our stops right and
everything is in a proper proportion so
next step is we don't we will delete out
all the unnecessary stuff which you
don't need so here the first step we
need only this part this part and rest
we have to remove it so we have to cut
this part away to do that
first we will select this both object go
to object path and sorry object would
object and expand it this will convert
that strokes into object that means it's
a fill object now we will use this small
small parts to cut this part from here
to do that we'll just select this part
go to object path and divide object
below that's the very in the important
tool
and this way we'll select this one go to
object but divide object below so here
we have to cut it we have divided from
here
so just ungroup it and delete the part
which we don't need now we got almost
all our parts we got the circle we got a
piece of rectangle and of same thickness
but here you can see one more thing is
there the intersection part has been
removed
that means the part which were
intersecting has been removed and
illustrator has a very special option
here you go to pod finder and you find
it there is a shape mode where you can
combine subtract you can intersect
you can left intersection part or you
can remove the intersection part and
this is the part which we need we need
to extrude that part so just select both
you object and extrude it away so here
we go we got the same object with a very
special and procedural way this is how
you can make your logo hope you enjoyed
the tutorial thank you very much
