About creating.
Hello community my name is Federico I'm from Punta del Este Uruguay, Im a graphic designer working as a freelance for the last seven years, I know how hard is to get into the world of graphic design and more trying to be a freelancer. I remember trying some other platforms like Crowdpring and Choosa and those worked great for me, even the payment system was kinda complicated, only PayPal or with a bank account. So when I heard about Steemit and steemgigs I thought as the perfect way to combine the freelance worker with the easy payment system. As a graphic designer I know how important is to have a nice clear and smart logo to show and tell what the brand tries to communicate. I want to bring a new redesign for @stemgigs as a way to thank them and to improve the visibility.
Mockup thanks to
Benefits / Improvements
Which are the benefits of a new design, some might say its not that important, and the only thing that matters is functionality and how it works, but is not all black or white, in therms of getting new adopters you must have a good image about your company, you want to bright with your logo when representing what you do and what you are, thats why I want to improve this image and make the perfect logo for @steemgigs.
Illustrator.
I'll be using illustrator as the main tool, I always design with the adobe design pack, also I'll be using some photoshop, to set the logo into some mockups to show how it looks in the different applications
My Designs.
Here is my logo contribution, I made a step by step with screenshots showing how I created everything on this logo starting from zero, also I ended up with a couple of designs basically the same, but with some minor organization variations.
My mission.
I want to improve and contribute with what I know best, I would love to hear opinions abut this redesign and feel free to criticize to make it even better, this is my contribution I have this file in .ai and .pdf in case you guys from @steemgigs want to keep working on it.
