Brief from client
#ThrowBackThursday
Just for fun, here's the very first "logo" I ever made; way back in 1999, even before I got into art school. I came quite a long way =)
Of course, it's all done on Photoshop 5.0 (never heard of Illustrator at the time) and it's just a big sticking pile of filters....
Feel free to red thumb that bitch!!
Have a great day, guys and girls!

Is that the lamination filter? :P
I can't even tell what that says! How beautifully awful :) We all came a long way.
It's supposed to spell "Breizh", which means "Britanny", in Britton. I was in the middle of a Celtic phase =)
At least you didn't use all the filters.
I don't have my first one but here's one from the 80's that is still being used today. I cringe every time I drive by one of the places. All done in pen and ink 2.0.
It's not that bad considering it was made in the 80's! I always wondered how logos were actually made back then.
I like your jazz hands gator!
20 years ago, I did a logo for a local plumbing company that still has it all over their vans. I have to look away every time I see it.
Jazz hands, great, never saw that before, makes it even worse.
Worse... or better? :D
(Sorry, couldn't resist)
Better, MUCH better.
I like it, I'm going to start putting top hats on everything!
"Action Gator" makes me think of a costumed superhero fighting crime. :)
Oh and the plastic wrap filter!
Oh... and... oh!
So awful that it is cute.
I can still remember the feeling of total awesomeness and overwhelming power this filter gave me. "I can plastify EVERYTHING!!!!" =)
Charlie that bad start =)
When I looked at that - I saw a map of Europe with " Breizh " in a center. Nice Oreo cookie with a frosted custard being as a decor for what I care.
What a gem! It's actually kind of cool how you designed your own custom lettering even from the start, no wonder you're so good at it now lol.
I'm always amazed on how people started from and where they are now, thanks for this!
