This was a fun project I was given the chance to work on. The end use was a web button/logo, 65 x 45 pixels in size. The necessary elements were the two words “student voice” and some kind of graphic. The speech bubble was suggested, and after thinking about other visuals that say “speech” (e.g. microphone, megaphone, mouth), I determined that the speech bubble would be the quickest visual “read” and would be the most scalable without loss of detail or legibility.
Step 1: Rough sketches on post-it notes.
Step 2: Investigate type options and start “sketching” out some idea roughs to investigate possible arrangements of visual elements.
Step 3: Select a final layout. Since I wanted the logo to grab some interest I experimented with various visual stylings which I pitched to the project manager.
