Create logo in PowerPoint


So you are here to learn how to create fantastic logos in PowerPoint itself. Can anyone think of creating logos in PowerPoint, instead of using good "Logo creating" software easily available? In fact, PowerPoint is not specialized to create Logo, But by using little creativity in you, you can Really Create amazing and rich logos. So following are the steps to create logos in PowerPoint: 


1. First of all, you should think about your logo's text and of what type it should look like. One should imagine many models of logo related to its topic. If it's about any brand, you should prefer any descent designs. If your logo needs to convey any type of feel to the viewer, so you should design your logo of that type. Example- if its "HOTWHEELS," it should have fire to make the logo more realistic.
2.Once you have decided what type of logo you want, then you can now start constructing it, on the base of your imagination. Open the PowerPoint 2010, and in a fresh slide, insert text box and type the logo text there. Make its font size large enough(say 96) so that your logo image will also be huge. Advantage of this is that once your original logo image is larger than when you more enlarge it, then it doesn’t pixelate, and when you shorten it, it gets clearer quality. After font size, choose a suitable font to display, that can convey what your logo is trying to tell. Example- for conveying coolness you can use chiller font OR for giving creative touch to your logo you can use Bradley Hand ITC or Segoe Script type fonts.




3. Now Your Logo is ready, but just needed to be garnished. For making logo rich(Rich logos are generally descent), we have to give colors to our logo. For that, you can change font color to your desired font color. You can have different colors for different letters(as shown in picture), or different color for different words. After you have colored your text you can make your text color gradient for really giving a rich look. You can do this by going to format section>>text fill>>gradient and choose your favorite gradient. You can click on more gradients there for advance gradients.


4.  Your logo is created. Now you just have to right click on text object and select "save as picture" option. Though you can add many more effects to your logo to make it awesome. You can give it background color, or you can also give shadow. You can make it 3D as well, you can give it reflection, make it glassy. You can bevel it, glow it and many much more effects can be added. You can find all these effects in PowerPoint 2010. You need to be little expertise with the software to make a more fantastic logo. With some practice, you can make almost all kinds of logos in PowerPoint itself.
