What do you think of our logo?! (don't pull your punches 😉)
hi
Skillshare it means sharing
It could be better
its very genius actually. i noticed it even before you post this video but i still think you have enough knowledge to make it better. the color compared to other brand colors could be weak but i still understand your brand is about education so you cant do a red or black color. plus i think you guys need to put more work and money on advertising because i believe the content is very nurtured and the idea of connecting a free educational content (youtube) with a none-free educational content (your website) is very genius and havent been done by big educational platforms like coursera or edx. i wish you the best.
One thing I could say about yours is that it, like the Boys & Girls Club(U.S.) logo, defines unity and working together. Another thing is that I know the narrator has his own UA-cam channel, called "Here's The Bad Version".
In the 90's Federal Express shortened their name to FedEx as a rebranding effort. I find it hilarious that they now have several "branches" of FedEx, such as FedEx Ground, FedEx Priority and yes, FedEx Express.
They literally took "express" out of their name to make it more trendy, but had to put it back in FedEx Express to communicate that they got packages to the destination fast. It's literally Federal Express Express.

I never realized there was an arrow in the FedEx's logo. That's so cool.
I already absorb this arrow in the logo but spoon icon in to the FED is amazing
@@hammaadali561I always thought it was supposed to be a letter opener
Great idea for a video - I've always wondered about these myself!
Real life lore sent me. I must say I'm quite impressed . Keep up the good work.
When logos tell stories! Cool video!
brilliant Explanation Very Simplification
3:59 it were Poles who broke German code, especially Enigma. Take a look: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptanalysis_of_the_Enigma
Interesting! Looks like the Polish Cipher Bureau broke Enigma for air and land communications, but Alan Turing and Bletchley Park broke the naval Enigma. Thanks for sharing! 🙂

I thought Steve Jobs called his company apple so it would show up above someone else's brand alphabetically (I forget who)
Yes. He wanted it to appear before Atari when looking it up. The bite was so it would not be mistaken for cherry. And serendipitous it was a homophone for byte.
what a cool channel
I am not here from real life lore, never even heard of it
The bite of the apple represents an computer Byte
i'm pretty sure that every one knew the arrow in the FedEx logo, but not the other around
RealLifeLore sent me!
Who is RealLifeLore?
The name Nike is clever because it’s the Goddess of Victory
Watching this on an Apple iPad rn
Don't regret seeing this,thanks RLL!
I SERIOUSLY want to know how there are Americans who do not know what McDonald's is.
I know why twitters logo is a bird cause if you have a pet bird and train it well you can use it to pass messeges from house to the house your gonna pass it to so the person who made twitter a app where you can message.. i think?
Seems like a good theory! Kinda like a messenger pigeon. 🐦
The real logo work could cost up to hundred of thousand of dollars for a good logo design for it is not only commercial, it is national identity and science behind it is more mind boggling in the digital age. A non- reproducible logo could cost million to design and apply across flat-forms
My art teacher made me watch this HELP
that nike ring costs the same amount for my snow minion in skyblock
I have an apple logo on my iPad
Thanks REAL LIFE LORE for this awesome channel...

Wait, wait wait, the bible never said the fruit was an apple...
