Symposium - Gravure

Yesterday I went to symposium of Bemis Flexible Packaging company.
It was very interesting presentation to me because I learned some knowledge about gravure skill.
I think, it is part of important thing in printing, and need to carefully when you do each job, and also the communication is very important with designer because the project might need to change or edit a lot on project. This symposium make me think about each product's package and I think when I go to supermarket I will look at each product's package and design.

Old Logo VS. New Logo - Holiday Inn


Holiday Inn
I choose the Holiday Inn to do my Old logo vs. New Logo.

Old logo and New Logo are different than before.

The Old logo was introduced from 1952s to 2007 October. The old logo of word "holiday Inn" in the Script font, it was very popular in the 70s.

In the 2007 October, the Holiday Inn Company introduced the new logo to use until today. The New Logo still keep the green color, but they moved the "Holiday Inn" word on the bottom with font more modern 21st century. 


I think the New logo is more fresh than old, and easy, simple, but I really like the old logo because the font is very much impression.
