Great stuff, Will! I'll pass this video along to my wife as she's a logo designer and seems to have the same serif love affair that you do 😂 Seriously, though, great work, man!
Oddly enough, I'm more of a Sans-serif font guy, but that is a nice serif font. Love the logo. Geez, hopefully I can be as talented as you are one of these days.
Hey Willl, great stuff man. Love seeing the process people go through to get to their finished product. I was wondering where you find all the examples of logos? Google, a resource site, or just a built up library of your own?
Hey Will! Just out of interest how long would it usually take you to get to this point? Hours / Days? I think a video about how you manage your time during a project would be cool! Your work process etc! Loving the videos x
Hey I have an idea. What if you held small contest like come up with a fake company etc and have people come up with logos and you can pick a top 5 and then have people vote for #1 then award them a custom hand letter from you or something.
Hi Will, does the client see you moodboard or is it just for your eyes as part of your process? Just wondering how a client would process seeing a moodboard with a bunch of different designs on it and how they contribute to the process.
Why hasn't this been answered in 4 years 😑😑😑😑 show your client that shit in my opinion just let them see how much work goes into this and why you charge what you charge
This is a great video, a lot of good information. I think if your subject requires more time because of the information you are teaching time should not matter.
Big thank for your helpful video. I just wonder what I should do in the research phase? How can I set the limitation so that I don't use much time than I actually need. Once a again, I'm really grateful for your informational youtube channel.
That's a really good tutorial, since you show a very structured and target-oriented way in order to concretize the desired style. Where did you research the logos and how? You could also try Ledavio mood boards - it’s especially for creating mood boards with integrated image search and test-driving nearly all fonts in free text fields.
I agree you should thicken the middle line of the tower, but I would leave the walls of the castle thicker than the lines of the shape underneath. It separates the two elements, makes the shape look like a house banner (to me it represents a sense of unity and pride within the company...). Don't know if that shape was meant to be a banner since you were talking about it being a shield but I figured I would give my opinion... love your videos! Edit: just realised this vid is from 2017 so the logo is probably finished :P
Question: If I brand myself as a logo designer would I just be doing logo designs for clients or would I also need to include other brand materials? Such as businesses cards, letterhead, envelope etc.
Hi Will, thanks for all the great stuff! I was wondering if you could share with us an example of a rationale you give to the client that describes your end result (for this design in the video or any other)? Thank you!
great video man, also I have a question how do you give ownership of one of your logos to a client? I have looked online but can't find a clear answer.
I know creative market is in the video description already but any other good sites to get inspiration and resources? GREAT WORK BTW. LOVE YOUR CHANNEL
Can you tell me where you got the logos in the beginning of the video? Did you just google logos till you found some that you liked or was there a thought process that went into selecting them? great videos, really inspiring (I'm actually considering a career change, and these are REALLY helpful). cheers...
looked awesome man, did you try the serifs at the top of the type and not at the bottom? just a thought if you wanted to link the icon a bit more. Loving the videos recently, keep it up!
Hi Will, Kind of off topic, but I'm an illustrator and I've been looking for a tripod that would point a camera down at my desk (so I can film time lapse-esque videos of my process). I just saw your rig for a moment in this video and I was wondering if you could share the brand or a link? Thanks a million!
Hey Will, love your content! I was just wondering more specifically how you go about gathering the images for your mood boards. Do you type in Google image search for particular moods (ex: minimalistic logos / playful logos) or is there some other process you use for gathering images. Thanks!
Insanely amazing content. Super loaded with value. Use your lessons to teach myself to be a designer. I am creating my new blog soon and would love to do a short email interview with you. Just for your expert opinion on my site. Do let me know if this is cool with you. Cheers man Keep the good work
I really like your vids, jus wish you would take better care of you nails. Your fingers always look reddish and swollen or like you just bit a chunk off of them.
Will your content has been poppin lately man. Really appreciate all the hard work.
Thanks bro! :D
Hey! Thanks for watching :D Love you all!

Seriously, though, great work, man!
tutvid thank you! Love your work :))
Thank you for showing the process. I am self taught and sometimes it is refreshing to see a different way of thinking. Thank you for your videos.
I googled to figure out what you ended up with - I like the final result and it's fascinating to see the evolution from your 1st draft to the final.
Wow!! The "HR" Logo Result is Awesome!! Excellent Job!!
Oddly enough, I'm more of a Sans-serif font guy, but that is a nice serif font. Love the logo. Geez, hopefully I can be as talented as you are one of these days.
it's a matter of time .just you need to practice everyday :)
Love seeing other people use this method pal, mood-boarding can make or break a design!
Thanks Dude! Very true :D
Love seeing your comment, while I talk to you on discord ;)
You still keep plopping out great content Will! Awesome job man, you're a awesome designer!
Well done, as always, brother! Always learning something new! Thanks for all of your hard work, and taking the time to teach!

No bullshit but that is one of the best logos I've seen in a long time
Hey Will! Another great vid. I am totally inspired to become a graphic designer because of you. Thank you so much for sharing great ideas. 😘💕
Hey I have an idea. What if you held small contest like come up with a fake company etc and have people come up with logos and you can pick a top 5 and then have people vote for #1 then award them a custom hand letter from you or something.
Great idea!
I'd be down for that...I could use the practice :D

You have a great style of logos

How do you select the spacing between letters or the logo dimensions?
Really neat logo. Really liked how you aproached it. Keep on
I'm a serif guy too. =) This video is awesome man, thank you!
Chris Hanline hh
Perfect Video!
I love when videos come at the right time :)
Question: If I brand myself as a logo designer would I just be doing logo designs for clients or would I also need to include other brand materials? Such as businesses cards, letterhead, envelope etc.
What printer/paper do you use to present your work to your client? (do you have one at home?)
Question...If a company starts with "The" is it best to do a symbol/icon and not initials?
I would like to see this process or something similar for a comic book/cartoon/nerdy style.
Hi Will, thanks for all the great stuff! I was wondering if you could share with us an example of a rationale you give to the client that describes your end result (for this design in the video or any other)? Thank you!
what is the font used for that Squarespace logo?
Nice logo concept !
Hey will great video man, could you go into more detail on how you find these logos for the moodpboard? what do you use and how do you search for them
great video man, also I have a question how do you give ownership of one of your logos to a client? I have looked online but can't find a clear answer.
how long did it take to master your field?
I know creative market is in the video description already but any other good sites to get inspiration and resources?
GREAT WORK BTW. LOVE YOUR CHANNEL

I love your background music...
Will, You do good job here, thanks
I used to think that this is bad! I thought this is copying. Thanks bro!
Hi Will, love watching your videos, would like to know how and where you source your images for the mood board.
Hey Will, love your content! I was just wondering more specifically how you go about gathering the images for your mood boards. Do you type in Google image search for particular moods (ex: minimalistic logos / playful logos) or is there some other process you use for gathering images. Thanks!
Awesome as always. :-) Thanks mate!
Hey Will ! How/where do you find all those logos ? I'm using Google image but that's poor :(

Livin' La Vida Logo Design
I dont really use mood boards maybe for lack of time, I think you could just say you want to use a serif font face.
Thank u
