I am excited to work on a project such as this one due to my interests not only in graphic design but with the social media platform, YouTube. Once before i, myself was a part of the YouTube community where i was able to be creative and express myself through my videos and my page itself. To get to work again with YouTube will be interesting as it has grown to a huge influencing platform and can reach lots of different audiences. I will get to showcase my new skills to create a logo for DIY and self-care that stands out and grabs the attention of the targeted audience.

In this meeting we will also work to formulate a plan for what she is looking for in the design and how much creative control I will have to create the logo and border them. To improve my designs a deep research of relating channels and how their designs for their theme will follow after the meeting. I will then create several sketches and logo packet, after understanding what she is looking for and wanting. After sending her the sketches and rough drafts, a meeting of what could be improved and or changed will take place. Then a final product will be presented.
Plan
For this project to be completed on time i will make sure to keep in contact with my client as much as necessary to make sure we are on the same page which will prevent miscommunication of the design and reworking the project. As well as working on the logo designs everyday and making improvements so that i can present the product to my client in a timely manner.
