This logo was commissioned shortly after the EA Montreal studio opened in early 2004 in an effort to help brand the studio. The design brief stipulated that it had to remain similar to the then EA corporate medallion logo but also to incorporate an ice theme.
To create this logo I used Photoshop CS to create the vector line art for the medallion. Once the scale and proportions of this were set I then pained several high resolution textures which I then blended over the medallion to achieve the ice effect.
I then created the 'EA' logo type in Illustrator and brought it into Photoshop to composite over the logo and blend into the texture layers. To finish off I added several colour adjustments layers which helped me control the colour balance and contast of all the layers. |
