[@russelrealeza7142]

Man, I pretty much learned everything about Logo design in this short amount of time. Of course it takes tedious time and practice to master the creation of logo design, but you really were able to tackle all. And for that, thank you Shantanu, many aspiring designers, need to watch this. Worth recommended bro!

[@mangojc8977]

I like the clean design with very rounded lines. The pastel colors give a cosy and "sleepy" vibe. My suggestion is to make the ears flop a bit more since it looks very stiff right now. That would make it seem more "sleepy" and relaxing. PS: excellent idea with the dotted paper

[@puneetpalkaur6334]

Tutorials like this will be soooooo helpful. I just started learning design. I need to create a logo for my friend but I always thought I will need an iPad for it because I won't be able to make all those curves on my laptop. I learned something very new and useful from this. Thank you!

[@affanimran9344]

KZbin just suggested your video ... And BOOM I just subscribe to your channel. The level of your work is just lit ... The most relaxing part of your video was the one with music in the background. Please upload more videos like this. Would be grateful to see some more work of this level from you.

Thank you Shantanu, I'm a graphic designer who really wants to get into logo design. I'm able to design logos but I believe I really need to learn more to create effective and impactful logos and this helped a lot.

[@SanjaySingh-oh7hv]

This is one of the very best logo tutorials I've run across. The suggestions at the very beginning involving using the information from the brief and then and then looking at existing images and then mind mapping to generate ideas is similar to how I've done logos. I think this is the most valuable part of the video, the concept generation. Some other suggestions. The color palette used is quite important. I think that some discussion of the role color plays in conveying emotion or mood or feeling is an important part of perfecting the logo. If you have the freedom to choose the color, versus just black and white, then this is worth exploring in some detail. Also the typeface. Typefaces have their own personality and choosing the right typeface can really complement the logo. I've not been able to define any sort of hard and fast rules for deciding the typeface in one or two tries, so I cycle through them until I find one that "feels right" when placed near the logo itself. Your video is one of the best on KZbin. Thank you for going to the effort you made to create it.

[@sheraboo6374]

I love how you managed to cover everything in just a little over 5 mins. Perfect for my crazy attention span.

Literally started loving your videos Your editing skill is superb

[@ShantanuKumar]

Thank you 😊

[@sravyasudha1559]

I see you've come a long way, saw a few logo designs on your Behance & had this to share- If your logo's legible even after sizing it down to a fraction of a thumbnail, it's feasible & will have higher recall value, else, start afresh keeping cohesiveness & visual weight in mind. (Which is why the alternative version with 'zzz's wouldn't work, or any piece of design with a lot of components & corners for that matter). -A student of design.

[@ShantanuKumar]

😊yes

[@shafinkhan5046]

How to brainstorm with clients with quick do's and don'ts 3. How to iterate further on the client's feedback 4. What are the deliverables that have to be delivered and how.
