From Workshop Day 1 (Illustrator Part 1 - 13/9/2021):
So we got a sketch where we had to express our thoughts on it. What feelings it gives us. (No, it didn't happen for the purpose of creating a psychological profile or something, it happen for the purpose to use it and give it the feelings we got to feel the moment it was shown to us) This is my part of it.
The moment I saw the original vector sketch of this animal I said it looks like a lion to me, even a female one. It gave me the feelings of anger and the pain of losing someone because of death happening by physical causes and death happening because of someone being killed by someone else. So I wanted to make it look like the lion is in pain because of losing members of its pride either because of its members being killed by people and either because of its members dying of physical causes. I actually found real pictures. Yes, the pictures used in the final product are actually real and taken from Google to use them for the theme of mine. I edited them in Photoshop to make them look like sketches so they can all be "tied up" to the original vector sketch itself. Then, I used the red colour to place between the edited photos and the original vector to make it look completely like a warning. That it is painful of an animal to lose its members of its pride. Also, I used aggressive pictures of lions as well. In attempt to show their anger more and that it's dangerous when they become aggressive as well. Especially when they want to take revenge for the pain they felt of losing members of their pride.
I hope you like it.

Workshop Day 4 (Illustrator Part 2 - 20/9/2021):
Part two of the project that happened on Workshop Day 1. We had to create a logo out of what we already done in the part 1 of this project.
I've used a lion silhouette for this logo since I only created my part with lions as an example for animals that are getting killed and since the original vector sketch we were first shown gave me the impression that a lion was drawn. I illustrated planet Earth because animal killing happens in the whole world and also, it feels like Earth is crying and gets filled with blood along with humans too when it comes to animals death as well. In view of the wild, animals are getting shot, I illustrated the white gun sight/sight notch and named the logo "Shotdown" since after the shot, animals collapse and die slowly.
Let's note that when it comes to give away a logo design of yours, you must have both a coloured and a black and white version of it since both will be used by the company that is in the need of a logo.

Workshop Day 7 (Illustrator Part 3, Finale - 27/9/2021):
Third and final part of the project that happened on Workshop Day 1. We had to gather all our concepts and put them up into sheets to make a presentation out of our concepts and what we used to create them.
My own concept could have been used for an organism that intends to save animals from being killed. That's why I gave such a title to my presentation. First of all, I'm starting off with the logo (both on colours and in black and white, also in both big and small sizes). Second page talks about the idea behind the logo design and it contains specific mockups in which the logo is used on them. Third page contains the font/typeface and colours I used for both coloured and black and white version of the logo. The specific typeface's/font's purpose is to make it look wild as if a mad/angry lion scratched the name "Shotdown" out with their claws (even though they cannot do that at all in reality). The final page talks about the idea behind the concept of this project. Thank you.
