“Dammit, Spider-Man, if you’re going to Bing! something, USE GOOGLE!”
-Scott Aukerman testing out a new, fan-submitted catchphrase on Comedy Bang Bang ep. 166
WHO CHARTED LOGO PROCESS
I couldn’t have been luckier when I got the chance to work with Howard Kremer and Kulap Vilaysack in creating the chart-tacular Who Charted? logo. Not only are they hilarious, they let me stretch my feet a bit and do what like to do the most… DRAW!
The first version of this logo started rather simply. Howard said he wanted to be a scientist surrounded by charts and graphs and things of that sort. I said “no problem” and away we went! After a few explorations [first image] we settled on a direction and I finalized the artwork [second image] and put all the colorful goodness it was in place [third image].
After a few months I was put with the charge of updating the logo to include both Howard and Kulap together [fourth image] as the team they were on air. I decided to give them a nice uniform, a few of their key show elements, and their trusty pet Hermes — the chart goose!
I never like to provide just one option, so a few color choices later [fifth image] we finally settled on what you see above [sixth image].
Now go listen to Who Charted?!
The highly anticipated follow up to Blaze and Rod Ogg’s Hardhats & Margaritas.
Can’t wait for that new album by Blaze & Rod Ogg, aka Bryan Pieces and Jack Sjunior, aka Adam Scott and Harris Wittels.
EARDROP LOGO PROCESS
When Jeff told me about Eardrop I was stunned that no one had thought about doing this yet. I still think that dude’s ahead of the game on that one…
I started on this logo trying to go in as many directions as my little brain would allow [images 1-4]. I showed the sketches and we decided to pursue two directions. A little work on the computer and I presented the team with The Wolf and The Sprite [images 5 & 6]. They chose the sprite and that little devil is forever a piece of the Earwolf family!
And THAT boys and girls are where babies come from.
