Technology taught - Adobe Flash

Learn Adobe Flash in this course.

The techniques in this lesson could apply to other vector based illustration software, but your instructor uses Adobe Flash, a multimedia and software platform used for authoring vector graphics, animation, games, and apps. Vector artwork can be exported at virtually any size without pixelation or loss of quality.

Learn how to create poster-quality logos from scratch in under 2 hours!

Chances are, Marvel Studios won’t be knocking on your door next week to hire you to design logos in their next phase of movies, but that doesn’t mean you can’t master the same techniques they use to create strong, professional title-art for your own projects. If you’ve got an upcoming app that needs an eye-popping logo or even if you’re just designing a banner for your school’s next epic table-tennis tournament, then this course will teach you everything you need to know to start from nothing and end with a polished vector-based logo. Your finished piece could be used in countless digital media formats or exported at a higher resolution for print.

So “true believers”, who’s ready to tackle their first Marvel-style logo?!

 

How to create Logos in Adobe Flash

Video Descriptions

Introduction to Logo Design

Initial Setup

In this first video we will discuss some initial settings in Adobe Flash and a few of your instructor’s personal preferences. You can watch this video and the next two for free in our Sample Pack.

Text Tools in Adobe Flash

Basics of Text in Adobe Flash

In this video we will look at how to create text in Flash, adjust basic properties, then use the Break Apart command to convert editable text to vector art.

Inset and Expand in Adobe Flash

Lettering Inset and Expansion

In this video we will work with the Expand Fill tool in Flash to both expand or inset our vectorized text.

Gradiants and Shadows in Adobe Flash

Gradients and Shadowing

In this video we will apply a gradient swatch to our Fill, learn how to manipulate it using the gradiant transform tool and work on shadowing the text.

Working with a Texture in Photoshop

If you have access to Adobe Photoshop you can follow along as your instructor does about 5 minutes of quick work to prep an image of a rocky texture which will get imported into Flash in the next video (this short portion of the course is optional viewing).

Adding a Mask In Adobe Flash

Masking & Adding the Texture to Flash

In this video we will drag and drop in our rocky texture, mask it, and manipulate it so that it adds, but doesn’t distract, from our logo.

Adding More Dimension to Text in Adobe Flash

Adding More 3-Dimensional Aspects

In this video we will work on a few more techniques to add 3-Dimensional depth to our logo.

Adding Cracks and a Rocky Backdrop

In this video we will add cracks using the brush tool, then using our previously imported image, create a dark backdrop for the logo using Filters

Adding Lens Flares

Unlike Photoshop, Flash does not have a filter to quickly create a lens flare, so we will create our own from scratch. We will also work on making electrical beams / bursts using the brush tool.

Adding stars in Adobe Flash

Adding a Cosmic Star Effect using Radial Gradient

In this video we will use a Radial gradient on a star field to imply a slight “cosmic” connection to our text

Adding a Subtitle in Adobe Flash

Adding an Optional Subtitle and Wrap Up

Finally we will play around with adding a subtitle and wrap up the course by looking at a variation of the finished piece.
