Create a simple logo in photoshop
Designing or creating a logo can sometime be extremely stressful if you let it get to you. When it comes to the creation of logo’s many designers like to sketch them out then bring them into illustrator and finish the job. Well We’re going to do things a bit different today. I know there are many designers out there wondering how they can create a logo in photoshop. Today we’re going to be using are creative minds and create a simple and fast logo in photoshop. No Sketching, enjoy.
Things You Need
Step 1
Create a new document 1000px x 72px. Background color:#0096ff.
Step 2
Select the blur brush tool color:#61beff and create a circle blur above our background layer. You should have glow look if done correctly.
Step 3
Select the type tool size:200px, Text:Airstream, color:#ffffff, and create the word Eclipse. Then go to Window>>Character and change to settings below.
Step 4
Duplicate the text layer and change the color to #000000. Then move text downward left to give it that eclipse look.
Step 5
Now this is where the neatness comes in or shall I say the great effect of out logo. Select the black text layer and change the color from black to #61beff. Text should now blend in with background.
Step 6
Select the type tool size:30px, Text:Airstream, color:#fff, and create the word Solar. Then add the word to the top upper left of the Eclipse text.
Step 7
Select the rounded rectangle tool color:#fffff and create a circle.
Duplicate the layer and change the circle color to #61beff. Move it down leftward. Click image below to enlarge!
You are now done! I know this tutorial was quite simple but you should have an basic understanding of how creating a logo.
Beyond This tutorial
If you would like there are many things you could do with this logo or any logo you create. I just change the backgrounds and dropped the shadow on some but there were a ton of other things I could of done with this. So be creative and don’t just settle for your first idea.
