The UP Circuit Logo Revamp
Then there are the logos that, while they already have interesting designs, have the potential to be better. These are the logos I’m going to looking at. In this Photoshop series, I want to revamp existing UP logos and make hip new version that would look pretty in posters and promotional materials.
Here I have the logo of UP Circuit. I started out by basically recreating the logo with solid colors.
I threw in some gradients, shadow and glow effects then I added the UP text using the font Yearbook Solid filled in with white.
I took me a few trials before I got the final patern for the “circuit” inside the C. I used most of the original design plus a few circles and a “core”, courtesy of Tech Brushes. I used the Tech lines from the Tech Brushes to redo the white line pattern outside the blue triangle.
The original logo had the three EEE courses written inside the blue triangle, and that’s not something I think should be removed. However, when I tried to recreate that using stylistic fonts, the text just looked out of place and messy so I decided to put it outside the triangle. It also fits perfectly in the space of the white lines.
A pattern overlay and more brushwork later, it looked like this.
Time to light up the circuit. I thought the glow effect with gaussian blur is very appropriate for the logo (besides looking really cool) so I used it. A lot.
The logo is done. A little background editing and it looks like this.
