Corporate Idenity questionaire


Corporate Identity Questionaire
            Half of the success of a Corporate Identity project is knowing the company/brand.  How do you talk about something you don’t know anything about?  Take a look at McDonalds, for example. What do they do?  They sell food.  What kind of food?  Cheap food.  What kind of cheap food? American food that people can buy and with little to no wait – they can even drive right up and take their food to go.  They’re kid friendly.  They have cartoonish mascots (Ronald, Hamburglar) and have happy meals.  Their colors are bright and bold primary colors (red and yellow).
            Copy and paste this questionnaire into your blog, filling in the answers.  It’s important to fill out this questionnaire in as much detail as possible, because this will be what you refer back to when designing your corporate identity.
1)   What is your business?
I am running a preschool for small children
Why is this important: Its important to know what my business is all about and what it stands for. You need to know what kind of business I am running
2)   Describe your business in one sentence
Ex: I run a quality preschool for young children to learn and grow
Why is this important: I am helping children get ready to go to kindergarden
3)   Who is your target audience?
Ex: young children and families
Why is this important:  I need to target my audience and give the right visual to young children and famlies so they know what I have to offer.
4)   Who are your competitors?
Ex: Other young children schools, day cares, montesorri, preschools
Why is this important:  It is important because I need to know other schools in the are afor children and what my competition is. Some schools may offer other things that I have or dont have.
Ex: Apple montesorri is a school based for young children, berkley day school is a private well structured school getting ready to move on into private school.
Why is this important:  I need to know what schools are school based, just fun play, structured or what they have to offer. Some are private and some are public. I need to know if they have school and play or just play time at a young age.
6)   Do you currently have an identity? I have made a logo so far.
7)   (If your answer to #6 is no, skip this question)  What do you like about it and what don’t you like about it?
I have made my own logo

1)   How do you want your image to be seen in two years?
Ex: I want my school to be viewed as educational, well-rounded but fun learning life schools for children at a young age.
2)   If your company was an animal, what animal would it be and why?
Ex: My company would be a golden retriever because they are smart, fun, cuddly, happy and always there for there owners.
3)   If your company/brand was a person, who would it be and why?
Ex: My company would be a well-rounded, down to earth teacher and role model.
Why is this important?  We need good role models and people working with the children so they can look up to good people and have good examples set for them
4)   If your company/brand was an object, what would it be?
Ex: rainbow
Why is this important:  happy fun bright
5)   If your customer was a cartoon character, who would it be?
Ex: dora the explorer
Why is this important?  She is fun and smart, and she also speaks two languages and is well-rounded.

Lyrical collage


Red Hot Chili Peppers- Californication
I did this lyrical collage because I love this song. I thought it was hard and I did use brushes. The hardest part was taking the original of the beach and made the sun come over the right.

Bird Clock

This is my bird that I took out the fill then filled it with color in class. I liked the bird the best out of all of the drawings so I decided to reconstruct him.

Logo Project

For my logo I chose to do Peanuts Preschool. I always have loved children so I would love to open a daycare/preschool one day. My nickname since I was a young girl has been Peanut. My Dad has always called me this so I figured it would mean a lot to name my preschool after his nickname for me. I have looked at a lot of preschool logos and all of them were simple with bright colors that attract kids and a little friendly picture. So I went with the simple name then a little saying underneath it. Then I chose to do a simple smiley face with star eyes something little kids could look at and like.

Calligramme

This is my heart Caligramme I chose to do. It started off being a full red heart and then I took out the filling and added words. I love hearts and I love the saying LIVE LAUGH LOVE so thats why I chose to do those words throughout my heart because they are important to me.

Logo Critiques










First logo: I chose budweiser logo because its a beer that has been around forever, if you ask anyone a name of a beer the first you usually here of is budweiser due to the fact that everyone knows its logo and the name of it. Not only is it popular among many people but a lot of people drink it now just because its a bottle of beer everyone knows that is good quality. 

Second Logo: Facebook of course is a logo everyone now knows of today. Thy have a simple one word logo with blue and white that is easy to remember and use. When anyone speaks of facebook they automatically think of the blue and white one word that is at the top of your facebook page everytime you login. I think they did a good job of making this a simple but popular logo.

Third Logo: Macys is a department store that has been around for years. Macys has been around even when my grandparents were young. They made a great simple logo with black writing with red and a star. It is a popular good qulaity store that offers many things to there customers and they have proven they are top notch since day one. 

Fourth Logo: The united states Postal Service I think is a great Logo. Not only has this also been around forever but its something everyone knows. Again its simple with red white and blue lettering to represent the USA and it has always stood up to its effiecent quality serving the US our mail. 

Fifth Logo: For my fifth logo I chose outback steackhouse because of its quality. It has a simple purple and red logo with just the name on it. It is a steakhouse that is known worldwide for there good service and steaks that is also zagat rated. They have given nothing but good food quailty and service therefore there logo stands up to par.

ASCII Project



For this first project I chose to do a night on an island. I love the water and the beach so I wanted to incorporate something I love with my project. I found the program to be very challenging but also great to learn. In my project if your standing on the beach looking out you see the waves and the midnight purple sky with a fire red sky with a dark ring around it.
