Spydercam Logo28 Jun

spyder
I still work with the great guys at Spydercam, and i was also lucky enough to be around near the inception of the company. One of the riggers at the time had a good idea for a logo, one night out at dinner, and he drew it, literally on the back of a napkin. using that sketch as a rough guide, i shot some reference photos of the arri 435 film camera, and used that as the main subject of the logo, then added the legs and the prominent matte box.

This logo was one of the very first illustrations that i really did. Previously i had used my mad skillz to do simple stuff for web site designs and font treatments, but nothing that i would consider 'design'. The spyder logo was done about 7 years ago.
