Melanie's Critique Notes

From the class feedback on the Spruce Knob logo, some people felt that the stacking of lower case letters was unsuccessful and perhaps to try all caps to avoid awkward spaces created by ascenders and descenders. Also, the letter "u" was uneven and had a more playful characteristic that was not shared amongst all of the letters. The logo also was lacking the energy of an amusement park logo. Someone also pointed out that there needs to be a system in which this logo exists for use among different placement.
The map was much cleaner and organized than what everyone had seen before and was very easy to understand.
The resolution for the signs was a good compromise of illustration and typography. It was commented that these signs fit the rides well and perhaps you could take some cues from these ride signs for the overall park logo.
Overall, there were improvements since the last critique, but the pieces need to start fitting together stylistically.
