Aaron Draplin is a designer based out of Portland, Oregon. Before beginning to design your logos on paper, we watched the first part of this video showing his process from initial idea, to paper sketch, to digital design. Pay particular attention to how he talks about his initial thought processes around the design, and how association and visual metaphor drives his sketching. In the second half of the video, notice how he continues and experiment and iterate on his design using Illustrator's digital tools. Thinking points: 1. Draplin works in a methodical, circular process (ideate, research, iterate). How could that help my design process? 2. Draplin notes several historical sources he uses as reference and inspiration. Many are designers and cultural products from the 1960's and 70's. Looking at my own life and influences, where can I get inspiration?
