Creating AI Generated Logos Using MidJourney

you want to know how to create AI generated logos like this one for Wolfman coffee or this one for Future tools here's a few other Concepts we generated these ones these ones here's some more here's some other ones we made here's some concepts for Future tools some more Concepts these are all interesting these are cool too some more Concepts and here's even more I don't know what this dude is holding here's some coffee shop Concepts here's some letter logo Concepts now we all know that mid Journey kind of sucks at text but you can get really dang close with the actual image for your logo and I'm going to show you how to do that and then how to tweak it so you can get the text right too let's get into it hey Matt wolf here in this video we're going to explore making logos with mid-journey now I don't know about other generative art tools but mid Journey has been the best at actually creating logo type designs that's what we're going to use in this tutorial video now I did learn another trick thanks to the comment section of some of my videos with mid Journey you can actually take the mid Journey bot and pull it into your own Discord server so I actually he created a new Discord server when you're inside of Discord you come over here click add a server and then click create my own I created a Discord server called AI art tests you can see it up here just says aat in mine and what I want to do is when I'm in the mid Journey Discord come over to the right side here click on the mid Journey bot then there's a button that says add to server I can click this and then it'll say select server and then you could select the server that you just created so I'm going to select the AI art test server click continue and then I'll authorize it and fill out the captcha here and now I actually have it inside of my own Discord server up here now what I can do is create different channels for different tests that I'm running so I can just create a new channel real quick I'll call it a text Channel and I'll say logo designs and this is an easy way to keep all of your various AI Generations separated and organized inside of your own Discord server and now what I'm going to do is I'm going to go ahead and type settings make sure all of my settings are dialed in properly I want to make sure mid Journey 4 is Select mid-journey 4 seems to be the best for doing the logo designs make sure remix mode is on that's always helpful so I'm going to go ahead and dismiss this message and now I can do the prompting just like I would inside of one of the Newbie rooms or inside of my private message room so let's go ahead and type imagine and then I want to specifically tell mid-journey it's for a logo design because mid Journey knows what logos look like we'll go a logo design for a coffee company called Wolfman coffee then what I like to do is I like to put white background so that way it doesn't put anything behind the background in the logo and let's just go ahead and see what that basic prompt gives us all right and so here are some of the logos it gave me it didn't quite get the white background very well and as we all know mid-journey isn't great with text so you got to kind of ignore the text that it uses but I'll show you a trick that we can even use with some of that later if we like some of these logos now I'm not super happy with any of these so so let's go ahead and add some additional prompts that help get the logos even closer to what we're looking for some of the prompts that I like to use are things like minimal Vector simple and flat so I'm just putting those in there for a quick reference and let's try to add some of those inside of our designs here imagine a minimal Hector logo design for a coffee company called Wolfman coffee white background so I think we're getting even closer some of these are pretty cool I like this one right here obviously it's still getting the lettering weird this one's pretty cool let's try simple and flat so imagine a simple Vector logo design or a coffee company called Wolfman coffee flat white background we got some really really cool potential logo designs here but I think we've got some really really good Concepts that we can play around with I really like this one down here in the bottom right let's go ahead and upscale 4 right here I really like this one right here upscale that one and then I also think this one's a pretty good concept as well so we'll go ahead and upscale that one that one would be number three let's go ahead and start on a new logo design for Future tools which is going to be a totally different style of logo because it's more of like a tactile logo so I'm gonna play around with some additional prompts in this one with these logos we're going to experiment with Japanese style which typically are very very minimalistic simple logos I'm gonna play around with some gradients and then we'll actually try to use some prompts from some you know graphic design logo creator legends that have a real sort of iconic style so I'm going to put iconic designers so let's go ahead and do our first one here imagine a simple Vector logo for a company called Future tools Japanese style and here's some of the designs that it's come up with for us let's try a gradient so I want to try imagine a hexagon geometric gradient logo green and blue futuristic Vector white background so this is what it gave us quite different than what it came up with before not really a fan of any of these they're kind of a little too abstract for my taste let's add the name of the company in here and see what it comes up with and let's instead of a hexagon let's go a triangle gradient logo I still like green and blues or a company called Future tools green and blue futuristic Vector white background so these are looking pretty cool I especially like these bottom two right here let's have it generate some variations of these bottom two and see what it comes up with so here's what we got on that first round I actually think these all actually got worse and here's what we got on the second round and I actually think these ones are pretty cool looking I wish it was a little more symmetrical with that triangle in the middle but not too bad for a logo designing now let's go ahead and try to use some iconic designer names in here imagine a a simple logo for a brand called Future tools in the style of Paul Rand now you may recognize some of Paul rand's logos that he's come up with they're pretty iconic so let's see what happens so here's some cool designs that we could potentially work with here pretty neat looking logo Concepts obviously the text needs some work but we'll Circle back around to that in a minute so let's do another one let's go ahead and copy our last prompt paste it back in here but this time instead of Paul Rand I'm going to do in the style of Saul bass once again Saul bass is a pretty iconic logo designer maybe you recognize some of his work that's on the screen right now and here's some of the logo Concepts it came up with from Saul bass I do want to run this one again and do it with a white background let's go ahead and I'll paste this back in and then I'm going to put white background I also want to add Vector in here because I always think Vector gives it a little bit better of a look as well so a simple Vector logo for a brand called Futures tools and the style of sawbass white background and I'm going to go ahead and do the same thing again for Paul Rand see what that gives us here's what it came up with with the sawbass white backgrounds some interesting logo Concepts we could potentially play around with and here's what it gave us for the Paul Rand Concepts these are pretty cool too I kind of like this one down here actually it's got that sort of retro futuristic look I wish it closed off the square right here let's see what happens if I get some variations from it we'll give it some cool color variations but it didn't close off the side but that's something that would be easy to fix in like a Photoshop or something like that now there's one more designer I want to play around with let's go ahead and grab our same exact prompt here imagine and then a simple Vector logo of a brand called Future tools in the style of and this time we're going to type Massimo vignelli once again another very iconic designer known for some very very famous Brands including a lot of the subway logos that everybody's seen and we got some more potential Concepts that we can play with here in kind of a different style some other things we can play with are our mascot you could go a cute mascot or a futuristic Tool company and then I'll put simple Vector art flat design now look at those who wouldn't want those as their mascot for their brand I'm not quite sure what this dude is holding in his right hand not sure I want to know but some of these other ones are pretty dang cool let's try imagine a cute mascot for a futuristic Tool Company simple Vector art flag design but instead of futuristic Tool Company let's do a cute mascot for a coffee shop simple Vector art flat design and there you go any of these could be your coffee shop Logo put some text underneath it or to the side of it and you've got a logo you can also do letters mid Journey isn't great at full words but it's actually pretty dang good if you just want a single letter so for example you can do letter M logo serif flat Vector art white background and there you go if you need a logo that's just a single letter there's some options for you now what I like to do is I like to pull these logos that I made into canva and see if I can find a close font inside of canva and just edit it straight inside of there so let's go ahead and create a design it's going to go custom size and let's just make it thousand by a thousand so it's a square image and we'll create a new design here and I'm going to pull this image in go ahead and stretch it out so it takes up the whole Square here and then let's go ahead and add text We'll add a heading here so we've got our heading and then what I'm going to do is I'm going to look through the fonts here if I click here you can see all of these fonts I'm going to try to find one that matches this font here so let's just kind of scroll through the fonts and see if we can find one that's kind of close here now I found this one here called Rasputin that actually looks pretty dang close so now what I'll do is I'm going to make sure that the color matches up so if I select this come up to my fixed color up here click on the plus I can click this little eyedropper icon and then hover over my color and now I've got it as the same color as this one so now I need to get rid of this so let's go ahead and I will create an element to just kind of hide that cover it up make sure the color matches our background here so that it'll blend in real good and then I'm just going to sort of hide it with some boxes here and there we go it's not too bad right it's it's the beginning I would probably realistically pull this into Photoshop you could see the edges of my borders here I would like to clean that up a little bit better but I mean this is a pretty decent looking logo here there you go you got Wolfman coffee and then I could you know hide this text up here and change out the text to say established and then put you know 2023 down here at the bottom you've got a decent looking logo that you can use let's go ahead and create something new here I'll pull in this logo stretch it all the way out here and then what I want to do is I'm going to click edit image and then I'll go background remover and that'll actually remove all of this background back here and there you go now I've got a logo with a white background and then I can find a font that matches the font we've got going on here gets sort of a futuristic looking text here and let's go Future tools bring this down to the proper size so that it sort of lines up with what we got going here all right and then I'll match the color use my little eye dropper here go ahead and put a big old white box in the middle so it hides our old text let's go like this change this to white people our future tools logo right here in the middle then if I wanted I could take another line over here bring it over on this side Let's Straighten It Out a bit then let's make sure we match the width a little bit better let's try to line it up as close as I can this is obviously just an example purpose here and then I need to match this color here so I'll go like this use my eyedropper tool match the color look at that let's copy our text again and then I'm going to make a couple more boxes to hide some of this other text the Box white copy that again cover this up down here and then I'll put established this up a bit so it fits right up above copy that bring this back down here and then I'll put 20 23. and look at that got a Future tools logo that we can use all right we got some text up here that we sh we could get rid of so once again I'm going to use some little little squares here here to clean that up I'll rotate the square hide that behind a white box on this side then hide the one in the middle and there we go now let's say I did want some text up there we can do that if we wanted to as well let's go ahead and copy this so we're grabbing the same font and then put let's just put welcome to and Center that above here and then if I come up to effects we actually have this curve option here and then I could kind of line it up like this until it looks good and there we go welcome to Future tools established 2023 now if I want to make sure this whole background is transparent the little trick that I can do is download this whole thing here download is a JPEG now if I was to open this file you'll see that it's still got the white background it doesn't have a transparent background if I was to download this with a transparent background on my little white boxes would show up so if I was to download this up here as a PNG file with a transparent background I'll show you it's not going to look very good so if I was to open this up you'll see what it looks like it's got a transparent background but you can see all my little white boxes that I created and that's not what we want so what I'm going to do is I'm going to add a new page here I'll grab this version that has a white background that we already created and then I'm just going to re-upload this one straight back into canva here I'll stretch this whole thing out and then what I'll do is I'll click edit image remove background now if I download this as a PNG transparent background check out what happens let's take a peek at this one boom transparent background on the whole thing so there you go there's a quick little guide to creating logos using mid-journey and canva a lot of times when it comes to AI art it's just iteration after iteration after iteration until you find something you like but mid journey is great for making logos you're just
