Wishing you all a happy year of the dragon this #AniMonday!
What could be more fitting for lunar new year than a little logo animation test I did for Nimona . The Amazing Aidan Sugano designed the cool curly dragon logo.
You know what? I realize now that I was way too stressed and harsh on myself back in college when making personal logo designs in my graphic design course. Seeing what large companies think is professional "branding" over the past few years in simplifying their logos into unrecognizable and/or boring shapes is an unexpected confidence boost I wasn't anticipating.
Jonny Sims had designed the new Bed Bath & Beyond logo. it was a low quality png of a worm on a light pink background. Everyone was going crazy over it. I emailed him and asked how he came up with the design, and he sent me a png of a cinnamon stick and blocked me.
