I'm in this business because I enjoy the creative, I have a sense of satisfaction when I have a completed project and can say "I Did That".BUT THIS TAKES IMAGINATION, and knowledge of design and text. so wht you may deem, a complete project, and passes your idea of good work, may not be so in the eyes of others.
I have no formal training and no one told me I can draw. I just doodle and love computers, I have a passion for knowledge and I like to be creative in my own way. so you jump into a business to make money , ILL-PREPARED??? this is creative?
I honestly know nothing about text or how to properly use it, and in all honesty all I've ever wanted to do was run my business alongside talented people. I can run equipment, tear them apart, maintain them, etc... I'm just trying to build upon something that I'm finding passion in.because your good at that, means that this will be easy to?
The truth is I am lacking imagination for this logo simply because I don't know where to get inspiration for it.but you throw something up there, and expect positive replies?? do your home work, learn about what your trying to do
I have one question for many of you "Old Timers" on here: If you hate all of us young people who lack "Talent" and "Imagination", why don't you teach us? If you don't want to teach us, consider yourself a dying art and don't get yourself in a thistle when you see the uninspired and talent-less taking over your industry.WHY waste our time, when its not US, that are keeping you from learning how to do this line of work, BUT YOUR EGO, is telling you that you are talented. as far as people like you taking over the industry, your a little late, its done been happening for a long time. you want to learn from us? PICK UP A BRUSH, hell even water colors will work. pick up a PENCIL, DRAW SOMETHING, without having a computer do it for you. THINK, let your mind work, rather then a processor on a motherboard do it for you. why we dont TEACH YOU??? most of you think you know it all already and are wasting time listening to us old farts "with talent" that is why we got into this business, cause people like YOU couldnt do what we do. but the computer makes all of you ARTISTS now..........so you believe. we dont hate you, more like we hate what talentless, not wanting to learn how to do this right PEOPLE have done to a form of art, that we OLD FARTS, respected and strived to be good at.
I've lurked on this forum and many others just trying to learn from whatever guarded tid-bits you all try to share, I don't interact a lot simply because its easy for most to bash rather than teach. I'm sorry if the world has gone digital and the old ways are dying out, there are a few of us who want to learn and remember. I would love to spend and hour with any of you to learn whatever I could as I always want to learn something new.
I may be talentless in the creative and so be it, I'm not selling my design skills. I sell a product designed by designers for clients looking for the best product available to them. I strive to excel at production end of our business. The only reason I'm even attempting this logo is simply that I don't like to reap what I don't sow, and having someone else coming up with the logo for my company seems like a field I didn't plant.
