When you start a business or want to renew the image of a company, logo design is one of the most important tasks because it is the first impression customers receive. It's a key communication element. Designing a brand is a comprehensive job that defines how the brand behaves on a daily basis and how, ideally, it manages to connect with people.
So, what separates a memorable logo from the rest? Join Elena Sancho, founder of Tatabi Studio, to find out. She explains step-by-step how to create an original, recognizable, and modern logo so that your brand can generate an amazing first impression.

Curso muito bom para quem não tem noção de como criar um logotipo (no meu caso). Foi importante para aprender a buscar referências e criar algo diferenciado. Recomendo!
Muy claro y completo el curso, me gustó mucho!
Mue buena toda la informacion de verdad muy util
Excelentes explicación y ejemplificación en las prácticas desde cero. Claro y conciso.
Me FASCINÓ el curso, (fascinó es decir poco). Sabía cosas básicos de diseño (soy diseñadora e ilustradora) pero nada sobre branding. Pude crear el branding de mi emprendimiento (no sólo su logo), el cual es como un hijo para mí. Cada que se me olvida un concepto o cómo realizar cierto paso, vuelvo aquí el curso, lo cual me facilita mucho las cosas en vez de andar buscando en otros medios, aquí es directo. Vale la pena comprar este curso.
