  • Logo Design

    #1
    Hi all,

    I am currently a Graphic Design student at an Art Institute. I want to make a little money and beef up my portfolio. Im pretty good with logo design and I could charge like xxx at most for a design. I am wondering how i can start this process and where to post classifieds and so forth. All input is greatly appreciated!!

    Thanks

    I think you perhaps posted this in the wrong thread, this is for people to critique work

    One suggestion is do you have an online presence? I think that is a good way to get your work noticed by others.

      Hi BZ, welcome to the forum. I've moved your post to the Business Issues board, it's probably better suited there.

      We ask all new members to read the threads posted HERE and HERE. They explain how the forum runs, the rules, frequently discussed topics and our inside jokes.

      Enjoy!

          No problem. Those links I posted will explain a lot.

            Freelancing is a business. You need to treat it as such.
            Logos may seem easy, but have you stopped to consider that you are creating something intended to draw in business? That if you fail, so does the business. It isn't just something to do for a few spare bucks, contrary to what crowdsource sites might think.

            Rather than spending your time looking for clients at this point, it would be far better for you to find an internship or part time job in the industry and under a mentor. Even if it is sweeping floors at a local printer or sign shop. Entry level in this industry is two years of Real World experience. Best to get started now.

              Hey.

              Hey,

              I'm a student at Arts Institute as well. Mines in Pittsburgh and I'm taking online courses though. Where are yours? For advertising, try craigslist. I mean it's not anything big, but it's at least something to start from. Good luck.

                We don't have any controls over that I'm afraid. I can certainly mention it to the higher-ups though ...

                They're plastered all over a forum that is pretty much strictly for graphic designers though. It kinda seems like an inappropriate place to stick them. Just an observation, not a whinge.

                Is it just me or are these ads kinda insulting?

                @ccpenn, you probably had the meeting already and my message comes a little bit too late now. But I had been struggling with messy desktops for a long time before finding a solution to clean up the mess...
