Induction 3: JUSTIFICATION FOR TV LOGO


Hipster high is a school were the students don't respect any of members of staff and think there the next tony hawk by ruling the school and skating in the corridors and graffitiing on every wall they can find, basically 'skate life'.

Firstly, i created my logo on photoshop cs3 ( Mac version ) and I started thinking about how I could create a simple logo but a affective design which would bring me the marks! But anyway I started playing around with some of the airbrush tools and gradients but the airbrush didn't really work out with the logo I wanted! so I used a blue and black gradient as the background and then thought 'text' so I scrolled through the texts and didnt like them so I went on dafonts ( www.dafont.com ) and found a text which was very modern and very slick something which was very movie like. However the was a lot to choose from but anyway I had the background. I had the text. and was thinking what's next? so I had a name in mind but it was a little borning so the fanstasic ' mr Jackson' came up with the name hipster nigh a very unique name for indie skaters. So anyway I thought I had everything but sir commented how about a picture and it took me ages to find a decent image untill I came along with this black and white push off picture which fades really nicely with the text and looks very skater type and also I added a couple of hexagons to the coners to make it that little more unique

Waterloo road, induction task!




1) i think the logo the is designed like this because they tried to link the logo with school and how      its conducted in way which they control the school.



2) the producers are trying to appeal anyone who's a teacher, student or maybe anyone else who likes school? but waterloo road is more of an comedy than a proper school drama because half the activities that happens on the program wouldn't happen in real life

Waterloo road.

Waterloo road school is a school with low expectations this is because we see the teachers standing in the playground smoking connoting a lack of respect and disregard. also lots of uneducated pupils, for example the pupils come in to school with very little uniform, pupils walking into school with american baseball jerseys over there shirts, girls casually wearing tracksuits like there at home and teachers dressing like its the end of the day
