For my final logo I wanted to keep a majority of my original design with just a few minor details. When I was making my draft logo, I noticed that the timeline itself looked like a barre and that the pins on the line looked like dancers. In my draft logo, I added a thin circle around the tops of the pins to mimic the arms of a dancer in high fifth and for my final logo I wanted to make the barre illusion more apparent. Most barres have two bars connected to a post on either side. I added the other line at the bottom to give this effect but I made it’s weight slightly less than that of the main line so as to not distract from the timeline as a whole. I actually increased the weights of all the lines that were in my original draft by 1pt so that the addition of the other line would not degrade the design. I want my logo to be scaleable so the line weights are important to keep in mind. I kept the logo in black and white, again referring back to my graphic collage in which everything was in black and white to give a very timeless effect. I decided to keep the fonts the same because I like the effect that they give and I think they do a good job of highlighting my theme of “Dance” and “Decades”. Overall I am happy with the logo I created and I think it does a good job of conveying my theme.
