Can I be honest? I was like “oh god he’s made the battery look awful” “what the heck is that font nooo” and then suddenly FROM NOWHERE it was PERFECT. How?!
Patch-like thick outline does the magic. As you study on sports team and e sports team logo, you can spot the similarities on it, simple but strong elements, thick outline and a dominant font.
@@nicolasbertolino I love it at 3:32, thinking of old art-deco style comics. Maybe try different borders, the plain black one distracts from of the giant buildings/ batteries. A border made with wires maybe, idk. Overall an amazing logo.
watching your videos makes me so happy and inspires me as a studying graphic designer. your energy and personality is so positive and your charisma is hard to find in the youtube community. you are such a cool human!
I recently discovered your channel and I can't tell you how much I love the content you create! Your attitude, your ideas, and your whole vibe are right up there with Bob Ross and Great British Baking Show. Thanks for putting more light into the world and I look forward to more great videos!
I find a lot of inspiration in your videos, you're certainly a pro. I watched most of our older ones while you were gone but I almost ran out! so thank you for uploading more! thank you and take care.
lol I'm from Germany and we actually have a pretty big company here that's called Black Forest and they sell ~water~:)) But here is the thing - the use the *exact same font*😯😯😯
Amazing videos, Zimri! Wonderful edits and fantastic presentation. Your graphic design skills are amazing, I've missed your videos! Can't wait for more!
Not sure if you recognized it (or maybe you did) but the lightning bolt in the first one spelt LA before you lined up the bottom half of the bolt. Would look awesome if the middle battery had that again and perhaps slightly larger IMo.
May seem like an obvious comment, but I feel that Zimri allowing himself to be spontaneous and goofy is part of the reason he's good at being creative. Lesson learned.
Zimri! Love the videos bro. Is there any chance of you displaying your keyboard when making these videos. I'd love to know what quick shortcuts/hotkeys you got going on when using illustrator! Thanks man and keep it up
Also I've seen Zimri add brush strokes to logos on multiple occasions to make them look for natural or hand-drawn. Why not just add the Roughen Edges effect? It does the exact same thing but in a more controlled manor.
Zim has good instincts when it comes to choosing fonts and improving readability of the brand. My suggestions. LA Battery: The slab serif and multiple batteries are an improvement; I would experiment with making the lighting bolt one single shape and extend a serif from the left of the bottom "prong" to suggest an A; DangBoye is giving me PacMan vibes, but don't know whether it screams DJ; The old Blackforest logo looked like the bat signal; the new one isn't any better (sorry Zim); a skin care co. should put you at ease with smooth, clean, minimal design; all those sharp and disturbing angles suggest an acne breakout! Is the font for Reid Consulting Abril Fatface? The Sandcastle A that Enes designed is boss. It really goes well with the chosen font.
One the Reid Consulting one, except the color, the changes made perfect sense because the old logo looked like BC rather than RC. Change the color to white on red and it's golden
The battery changes were on point! Nice work. For the DJ logo I think squaring the icon off wasn't the right decision, it no longer has any relation to the font and looks disjointed - leaving the icon with rounded corners would have made it more cohesive and given the icon a little more personality. Great revisions on the BlackForest logo. The RC looks to be sitting too high in the circle. Just my opinions.
Vote for Zimri! Is it just me or should the LA Battery logo have rounded corners on the text box when the batteries' corners are so rounded? I feel like that's what Zimri would do.
Can I be honest? I was like “oh god he’s made the battery look awful” “what the heck is that font nooo” and then suddenly FROM NOWHERE it was PERFECT. How?!
Gradients.
Exactly what I was thinking... but the end result aced it :)
If it looks bad just throw a couple gradients at it. (Logo Design in a nutshell lol)
Patch-like thick outline does the magic. As you study on sports team and e sports team logo, you can spot the similarities on it, simple but strong elements, thick outline and a dominant font.
When you were making the changes I was thinking "nah you just made them worse" but at the end they always look better, somehow.
It's like when Bob Ross paints.
YES
@@abdelrahmantaha7443 Well, of course, this is creative work, everything is opinion based. I just think they always look better
I thought the same before he applies the stroke
Oscar Fyrk Little accidents
Zimri: I really like the font you used, you rock!
Also Zimri: I'm gonna change the font.
Lol yeah he's a character.
You’ll never hear him bad mouth a persons logo. Rare guy.
he may have meant he liked the font itself, but not the way it was used
I read this comment right when I got to the part in the video lol
Tough one on the LA Battery logo. The original design is awesome but not for an eSports team. Maybe for electric car charging.
What was the name of the font, sorry? I didn't understand how to write it. 😅
I was very sceptical with the first one but right at the end where you put on the outline I felt like the logo was from a pro team
ikrrr
Looks super cool. Only thing, I think the lightning bolt is supposed to read “L.A.” but dope
it has the same feel as a varsity sports team
I love how you explain WHY you’re doing certain changes.. so many people don’t do that.
The entire time you were doing the LA Battery one I was like yeah, it's a no from me dawg. And then it turned out amazing. You're a wizard.
"Let's congratulate Aced's team logo with *THREE* double snaps"
*snaps 2 times*
Lol I was looking for this comment 😂
Los Angeles Battery - don't apply a gradient to the name - but the triple-battery idea makes sense (team effort of the AAA-batteries!)
Aaa battery😂 cool
And they’re good at AAA games😉
Also the three batteries kind of look like buildings, which compliment the 'Los Angeles' part of the name imho
@@nicolasbertolino I love it at 3:32, thinking of old art-deco style comics. Maybe try different borders, the plain black one distracts from of the giant buildings/ batteries. A border made with wires maybe, idk.
Overall an amazing logo.
You missed that the battery lightning says "L.A."?
Damn, i would never notice myself
Came to post this, upvoted instead. it was a subtle thing that should have been made more prominent rather than replaced completely. imo
@@sanriku9036 I just don't think Zimri realised that's what it was saying. I thought it was just a small cutout to be a little different :0
It drove me so nuts I stopped watching it right there. No lie
Where’s the A?
You should make a series where you re design real brand logos
sick burn bro.
Your personality is OP, thanks for inspiring buddy👍
"I don't wanna change too muuuuuch"
Changes 90% of the Logo
watching your videos makes me so happy and inspires me as a studying graphic designer. your energy and personality is so positive and your charisma is hard to find in the youtube community. you are such a cool human!
Beard hype! ... Has Zim always had 2 different eye colors?
Yup
No he recently got a new left eye thats why its different
@@AgiiTV Me too, ordered mine from Wish.com. It was the wrong color, but hey it was $3.99 with free shipping.
Rudderbuns yeah it's called heterochromia
@@haakonhirt670 How much did "Wish.com" pay you to say that
I'm always confused when zimri's "normal"/chill side comes out for a couple of seconds
It's cute tho.
💕
probably coz of the hate comments... fucked up coz the funny side is the side i like lol... but whatever i guess.
you should redesign the logos of US presidential campaigns
DO IT ZIMRI!
I recently discovered your channel and I can't tell you how much I love the content you create! Your attitude, your ideas, and your whole vibe are right up there with Bob Ross and Great British Baking Show. Thanks for putting more light into the world and I look forward to more great videos!
Love the little techniques like adding hand-drawn brushstroke over the Blackforest logo. Thank you!
The Battery Logo afterwards is fiiire
Wow Zimri, you're looking very handsome with that beard!
I find a lot of inspiration in your videos, you're certainly a pro. I watched most of our older ones while you were gone but I almost ran out! so thank you for uploading more! thank you and take care.
These videos are such an inspiration for me! The way you look at logo's and make them better, I learn so much every time.
All very great initial logos! Super impressed by your viewers right now! The redesigns are amazing as well!
Definitely continue this series I love binge watching these!!!!
I'm so glad I found your channel!
How did it take me watching 10 episodes of this series in a row to notice you have heterochromia?!
How did it take me watching 50 of his videos, then deep diving in his comment section to notice he has heterochromia?
I just noticed it too! Was looking for a comment mentioning it!
Thank you, Zimri! Because of you I know a lot about logos, and this is precious to me. You are great! Thank you!
Damn dude. This designs are sick. 👏👏
Love these videos like always, never stop it please
OMG 😱 / Finally, he’s back, and so hot beard!!! lol
Let's be real he is hot period. Both in personality and look...beard or not.
Jonathan DPG He’s the perfect one.
it have been such a LOOOONG TIME since last video
I just found you last week and am bingeing your videos. I'm obsessed and you have my design-bug ITCHING. i should finally design myself a logo...
Hope you're doing good ZIMRI!!! Glad to see you back at it
Love your videos! They always help me to get inspired to think differently about my designs and get excited about design before jumping into my work!
Watched quite a few of these videos and that Battery logo was the first one I've seen and actually found awesome!!!
Just love your energy and your professionalism with the logos! Thank you for your vids! Cheers from Canada!
The batteries in the Los Angeles battery logo also kind of look like buildings now (which fits with LA!)
lol I'm from Germany and we actually have a pretty big company here that's called Black Forest and they sell ~water~:))
But here is the thing - the use the *exact same font*😯😯😯
you're my favourite RUclipsr, keep it awesome pawsome my dude! 🤠♥️
Amazing videos, Zimri! Wonderful edits and fantastic presentation. Your graphic design skills are amazing, I've missed your videos! Can't wait for more!
Not sure if you recognized it (or maybe you did) but the lightning bolt in the first one spelt LA before you lined up the bottom half of the bolt. Would look awesome if the middle battery had that again and perhaps slightly larger IMo.
That LA Battery logo redesign was soooo great!
3 behind-the-head claps for this channel. So binge-worthy.
You always give me the motivation I need to get things done! Thank you 💖💖💖
May seem like an obvious comment, but I feel that Zimri allowing himself to be spontaneous and goofy is part of the reason he's good at being creative. Lesson learned.
Where have you been?😭 glad you’re back :)
Looking cute af Zimri!
Four behind the head claps✨
You improved them all in my opinion! Good job
Glad to have you back!! The redesigns were awesome 👏
Good to see you back fine sir 🙌🏻
i just realized your eyes are two different colors
Dude I love your new intro ! And beard totally change you face OMG 😱
Except for the dangboye logo redesign, every other design change you did made it so much better . Cant wait for the next episode of YGR
what font is zimri using for the sand castle logo?
Zimri! Love the videos bro. Is there any chance of you displaying your keyboard when making these videos. I'd love to know what quick shortcuts/hotkeys you got going on when using illustrator! Thanks man and keep it up
Aced it
Dangboyed it
Black forested it
Reid consulted it
Castled it
Yeah boy!
I went back and watched some of your videos a couple days ago and thought that I missed you! so glad you uploaded Zim! xx
Love that you are back! Quick question: what was the name of the font you used on under the restaurant logo?
Also I've seen Zimri add brush strokes to logos on multiple occasions to make them look for natural or hand-drawn. Why not just add the Roughen Edges effect? It does the exact same thing but in a more controlled manor.
Super glad to have you back, we missed you too!
There wasn’t any poll but awesome video really loved all the logos 😀
Welcome back! Missed your videos a lot.
You’re a wizard! That Battery logo was awesome!
Let’s just appreciate the awesome theme song!
Oh wow you killed it in this episode, all the redesigns are awesome!
hahah thanks Potato! : ) I appreciate you're still rocking with the theme song : P You're awesome man, thanks for being here!
Zimri Mayfield
Ah, thanks you too, thanks for making entertaining and helpful videos for us. Excited for the quarter finals (?) of dcc :^]
Wow - just discovered this channel, awesome talent dude...
We need more of these videos !!
its true about eSport logos they kinda look this way, and its much better goodjob bro u even make battery logo have sense! :D
finally he is baaaaack ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😍😍😍😍😍😍
Early squad! Love your videos man! Your a very talented designer and you've inspired me to be one as well and im 13 using my dad's account
Finally! I've really missed these episodes!
The LA Battery one looks like a baseball team logo, I like the simplification but the font honestly kinda sucks. Good job though.
Please do a Tutorial on how you did the Gradients and Outlined exactly! How do we replicate the results here!?
Space invader look was awesome. Could have clipped in a notches to make the D separate from the E.
Good to see you and feel your personality 🤗
Zimri I hope youre doing well! I don't know much about logos but I really like watching your videos.
Hey Zimri! That's dope bro! I love the way you recreate logos! Keep up bro....Thanks
Zim has good instincts when it comes to choosing fonts and improving readability of the brand. My suggestions.
LA Battery: The slab serif and multiple batteries are an improvement; I would experiment with making the lighting bolt one single shape and extend a serif from the left of the bottom "prong" to suggest an A;
DangBoye is giving me PacMan vibes, but don't know whether it screams DJ;
The old Blackforest logo looked like the bat signal; the new one isn't any better (sorry Zim); a skin care co. should put you at ease with smooth, clean, minimal design; all those sharp and disturbing angles suggest an acne breakout!
Is the font for Reid Consulting Abril Fatface?
The Sandcastle A that Enes designed is boss. It really goes well with the chosen font.
What has the name of the font for the Battery design?
Which I had your skills. Amazing!
One the Reid Consulting one, except the color, the changes made perfect sense because the old logo looked like BC rather than RC. Change the color to white on red and it's golden
missed so much ur videos! u're so great man : ) keep going' like this
wait i love the battery logo🤪 i’m starting college in a week and this makes me want to go into graphic design lollll
Your back with another YGR... exciting!
I sent you a logo a few months ago would love to see it on one of these.
you're cooool bro. GLAD to see you backkk
I loved the original e-sports logo. It was great! Maybe too subtle and detailed for it's application, but really nice
Yeah it was. Not really great for e-sports and the redesign was better for it's use but it was a great idea for something else
Your videos always make me laugh! I’m not a designer but I appreciate a good logo and redesigning so, thank you for being you hahaha
The battery changes were on point! Nice work. For the DJ logo I think squaring the icon off wasn't the right decision, it no longer has any relation to the font and looks disjointed - leaving the icon with rounded corners would have made it more cohesive and given the icon a little more personality. Great revisions on the BlackForest logo. The RC looks to be sitting too high in the circle. Just my opinions.
Hey , redesigning is so fantastic !
Omg I’m glad you’re back I’ve been waiting forever!
I just find this channel, its so cool
What program are you using?
*Very inspiring, as always!*
third logo so cool... WAS, BEFORE YOU CHANGED IT!!!
What's the font that you used for the Castle logo called, Zim?
Vote for Zimri!
Is it just me or should the LA Battery logo have rounded corners on the text box when the batteries' corners are so rounded? I feel like that's what Zimri would do.
If there had been a tiny window on the castle A it would have been perfection!!
The first one is awesome! Let me keep watching
First three are awesome!
already loving this intro music ur such a band indie like one wow 0
What is the software zimri is using?
