20% Time Project: Week #3

The past 2 weeks in Bulldog Manufacturing I have been trying to look at the bigger picture of the company and focus on what other departments and myself need to be accomplishing. I started doing this by giving most of my previous work with depositing payments and filing to the Business Administrator. Then I made a new section of the white board that has all of the departments weekly goals on it, with this weeks being making a catalog for sales and finishing the athletic awards for the design apartment. My biggest challenge while doing this has been communicating with everyone to make sure it's all getting done, but everyone has been very focused and on top of things. Next week I have to make a presentation for the Board of Education on a update of Bulldog Manufacturing and make sure the website gets finished. 

eCommerce Article #5

https://www.shopify.com/blog/how-to-design-logo

My article this week was "How to Design a Memorable Logo in 7 Steps (We Make One From Scratch)" by Evan Ferguson. In the article Ferguson goes into extreme detail on how to make a logo, with numerous useful visuals and examples as he makes his own logo for a company called "Lawn Pure". I found this super interesting because we are talking about logos in class and many of the things Ferguson went over we're very similar to what we learned, he just went more in depth about it. He discussed how certain font types and colors make people feel, tips for deciding if you should hire a designer, and how to get good feedback on your logo.
