In this logo I used all kinds of hues & tints to express to the target audience. I used a transparent canvas & I pasted & cut all my pictures in my logo. I did it out of a scratch, first I draw it in my notebookand then I did a riplica in GIMP. I used the internet as a reference to look up pictures and to open the school page. May be my logo would be an icon !!!

This Logo Has Eagle's Wings As A Symbol That Represents How Eagles Fly High And How Us We Have A Goal And Its To Go High In Other Words Rich You Goal. They Are In Duo, Black & White.

For the logo design, I chose a tint of the primary color blue and a tint of the primary color yellow as the background, representing the sun and sky, because I see the sun as a symbol for new opportunities and a time to start fresh, and that is what school is to many students. I chose the popular icon that represents strength and prosperity, which also happens to be the school mascot, (the eagle) as represent strength, which is what you need to be successful in life. I also chose a bright tint of yellow, which represents power of thought (important to express opinions) and confidence, which is also necessary for success. This logo needs to appeal to many different cultures, though of course the target audience is students and parents. I think even though the logo includes many different elements, it blends nicely.

My rationale behind the composition and meaning of my logo has many parts involved in it. First, I knew I did not want to use any web-based references, such as google images, etc. Basically, I wanted to be completely original on my Tertiary color logos and I did not want it to be a replica of something else. Secondly, I loved the fact that my canvas was going to be a non traditional one, (GIMP), located on the computer, because I am very tech savvy. Also, my logo is not icon size because I wanted it to be large. Lastly, I wanted to use an eagle that symbolizes leadership and cunningness. In conclusion, I had a riveting time using this software because I had used it so many times before (Adobe Photoshop), and I just love the graphic arts.

I chose a Tree For my logo. I chose the tree because Arroyo paseo is like a Tree that is Growing every year. Also That time when the guy in the wheel chair came in to present when he talked about that billion dollar company of Watchs I wanted To kind of copy that image but representing our school with different Hues Tho.I used one Primary color which is Yellow.The other colors I used are Secondary Colors(Brown and Green).I Did Used a tint which was light yellow when my primary yellow is Dark yellow. A regular tree would have leaves Coming out but instead I changed it and instead Words are coming out of the tree.It is a reference how You start off as a root then later you grow bigger and bigger into a tree which would be when you make decisions and later on then you turn old and so on. My logo is like a symbol How you start small and as you get bigger you make harder decisions. I would say somewhat My logo would be mainstream or so since big company have Trees to represent they are a growing buissness like our school we grow every year except we don’t die we keep on going until we become a very,very big school. My tree can also be a icon in a way since it is very simple and most people will be able to remember.It was a great experience using gimp it will help me on the future with “tuning” pictures. I will use gimp in the future to make logos and other art projects I will have later on the year.

This logo represents the arroyo paseo charter high school. This type of art work should not be an outcast. I wanted to put some abstract like the abstract movement but couldn’t do it. I used blue one of the primary colors. The canvas has a sharp circle representing perfection. The target audience is high school students. The symbol is also unity.

These logos represent a few symbols that I think are important to target the audience of students and parents that are looking for a great school that has high achievement. In one or two of the logos I have put a graduation cap at the end of APCHS to show the icon that symbolizes graduation and success at the end of high school. In one of my logos I used a combination of a primary color such as blue and a secondary color such as green because I thought that it would capture the attention of the mainstream and for reference I looked to the original letters that stand for the school.

The way I made this design is starting with the animal of the school which is an Eagle. Later, I began thinking about the people in the school of how many different race is there and that we all come together as one. The most important of all is thinkiing about what Hue I need for the logo. First thing that came from my head was finding References in order to give me ideas for the logo. Everything was ready to start my logo; starting with drawing it by hand. The composition is the one I was struggling the most in a way where if I should make the image zoom in, from a distance or sort of a kind of a background landscape. Starting with the most important is the Icon which is the bald eagle because the way of it’s difficulty. Later on when I was done with the bald eagle was the earth to represent the many different people that came to this school. I would have to replicate my logo for about three times for which we need: 1-to have an image in black in white. 2-in two eithe primary, secondary or tertiary colors, 3-in multi colors. The way I think it would pop-out to the audience is because I added a light colors for the interior, and for the exterior I added a darker color to show the main parts of the image.

My rationale behind the logo of my choice has many reasons. First, I chose the eagle because it’s the school mascot. It symbolizes freedom. Second, I wanted to use only one Tertiary color because I like a hue that looks like a blend between two different colors. I really liked my canvas to be untraditional (Using GIMP) because I like working with computers. Also, I had many references, such as the Google Images to make my replica. In the end, the composition of my replica was very entertaining because the eagle is at the center. I learned how to use GIMP and got more knowledge. Using GIMP was a great experience for me and I will use GIMP in the future for other art projects.

My rationale behind my APCHS logo, has many reasons. First, I used an eagle to Symbolize leadership in our school. Second, I use many Tertiary colors because I like different Hues in my Replica. Then, my Composition of my logo was done on GIMP, an elecrtonic Canvas. In conclusion, I enjoyed this so much, that I would love to join the computer graphics art movment.

Hopefully one day my logo will become an icon to the school district as one of the best schools in san diego. The eagle I found on a mainstream web site called google.on my logo I didn’t want to use any tints because I wanted it to be simple.i have one primary color and that’s the gold/yellow.and my secondary color I used was green also our schools color.
