So I was giving the change to try and redesign a new logo for the school that I attend; present logo. So on making this logo, I had a few things in mind, from previous comments that were giving

People want to have a logo, that they can be proud of, something that they wouldn’t care to show any other school. Things I took into consideration on making this, were those comments. Now things on how I should do it or make it, was a bit difficult. Deciding from making something with an image or more typography was hard. Pathways To Technology – Magnet High School, was to long to make into something in typography, so went with an image look.

Deciding on what kind of image or how I was going to put it all together was hard as well, but as i sketched somethings out, they all went to that sort of emblem look. So did a small design in photoshop, now that i have the “background” choosing an image was in mind, one thing I went back to was our “mascot,” since people didn’t know what we had as a mascot it would best to add that in the emblem, it was also a good representation of our school.

After showing it to a few people I was told  I should make it more glossy so here I have two copies.
