🥕 good to know that some of the things I do are industry good practices and also great new tips! Thank you!

[@willpatersondesign]

Glad it was helpful!

[@MattHG92]

CARROT. That bounding box trick for clearspace will come in handy SO MUCH! Thank you!

[@willpatersondesign]

Glad it was helpful!

[@umutcanyldz6913]

You can draw square on where your take your measurement, and then you can simply put two corners like left up and right down. Then shift+o for canvas tool to resize it to corners of squares.

[@benji_san]

lol well, that was easy, thanks 🤣

[@mjolninja9358]

This is often overlooked, thanks for this! I often struggle with spacing so I tend to make my logos either a circle or a box but now I will try more dynamic shapes

[@UmarRosyad]

Just into graphic design and found your channel. What a blessing! Thank you so much for the video

[@loomonda18]

Haven't even thought about this, but it makes so much sense! Thank you!

[@zackyeprahim3575]

Thank you Mr. Paterson, I am so grateful for your tutorial; you always influence my work.

You are very welcome

I appreciate your help, Will, as always

My pleasure!

[@jonbbradie]

That’s a great reminder, Will. You have a habit of telling a story right when I happen to need it. How do you know?😬

[@dumisanimacdonald3519]

Thank you so much Will, your tutorials have helped me a lot in my designs till now.

[@seyurisu]

Thank you very much for this tutorial. Straightforward, and just the right amount of information needed. Also great to have a technique that works visually, and that is adapted to the logo, instead of generic mathematical rules that sometimes just don't work. Thank you very much for this.

[@tomriddlevoldemort225]

I learn more from your videos than I learn at uni.

[@jjfecik]

Such an awesome simple tip & love your site!! Carrots are also amazing. 🙏

[@therexdei]

C A R R O T . Thank you , thank you, thank you, Will. This is help I've really needed.

[@janehellwig6814]

🥕 Super helpful, thanks! Can you explain why the "N' was the "leading shape" in the JANI logo?

[@letterfella]

🥕 I was wondering the same thing, not sure how you determine your 'leading' shape?

[@AverageHomeBoy]

I don't speak for Will here, but I will say that to me, the reason the N was chosen is because it is the letter with the most mass and straightest edges. It's a pretty good spacer and doesn't impede upon other characters; whereas the only other 'very vertical' letter would be the "I". But the "I" would be better for word/character spacing because of its natural narrow width.

[@VINULCI]

Hey Will, I truly enjoy watching your videos, you are awesome graphic designer, I've been learning a lot with you. So I'd like to ask you to make a video giving some tips for Illustrator when designing a logo. I don't use Illustrator that much but I'd like to learn more. Would you make that video? Cheers from Brazil!

[@lexdgordon]

adding to adobe libraries is rough even with the export it will bound to the outer points of the logo. but if you add an invisible box to the artboard and then export it, you can add to a library and it will keep the clear space

[@gearlounge3743]

Very important new insight. Thanks brother

[@willpatersondesign]

Glad it was helpful!

[@peacelover301]

Useful information ❤

[@a.m.3989]

Are you keeping a transparent box around the logo? Without this, when exporting just the artwork on art board, it doesn’t account for the created clear space. It extracts the asset without clear space, unless the clear space was created as a clipping mask or transparent box, behind the primary asset (logo).

[@utkarshagarg3067]

Is leading shape generally used here meaning the most important or is it something different in logo design? Could anyone help, I am a beginner. :)

[@willpatersondesign]

Use the shape or component that stands out the most - or is of most importance to the logo.

Shouldn't we count also with the spaces between the letters?

What's up with those names! Carrots 😂 Thank you Will for clearing the space. Loved the video. ❤

You’re welcome 😊

[@Duanekoroye]

carrot. amazing content. can the brand guideline template also come in Adobe Illustrator template file?

[@willpatersondesign]

Not as of now! It works by using components which Illustrator doesn't feature. Figma is free though. :)

[@Duanekoroye]

@@willpatersondesign will learn how to use Figma for a bit then come for it

[@samarabdulaziz9048]

thank you

[@humility0is0a0virtue]

What will be the differences between Vol 1 and Vol 2?

[@w-hisky]

The presented way of thinking about "clearspace" of a logo, holds also true of single letters: the spacing/kerning of a single letter must be in balance with its own area of form and counterform. - Example: the show "JANI" logo. In my opinion, it is set too compress. The space *between* the letters is narrower than the space *in* the letters. Not a good way of doing it, if you aks me. 🤔

[@denhamk]

Thanks for the Video. why don't I get the bounding box 3:00 when I import the SVG to inDesign 😭 the box is just the shape of the logo. does it only appear if I import it to Figma?

[@sophiahughes9270]

The clearspace bounding box does not work for me when I export? it goes back to the outer points of logo. What am I doing wrong?! - Thanks :)

[@tach4473]

Not sure which software to learn, Photoshop, Illustrator, Fr, After effect. Do you have advice on that?

[@willpatersondesign]

It depends on what you want to learn. Graphic Design, or Motion Design?
