Week 4




For this week's logo, I chose the title for the "Final Fantasy" series; Extremely simply, timeless and beautiful. The example given here was specifically for the first in the series, but the base of the logo has been used over and over again. Each Final Fantasy graphic uses the same text, and then in the background there is a nice portrait of the main character or sometimes villain. What makes these logos nice is that it is very clean and you know exactly what it is, and for some, you can figure out what the story is about by looking at the portrait. I also love how detailed the portraits are, yet they do not detract you from the seeing the title.

The website I chose is for Ubisoft's 25th anniversary. They created a site which is based off of a very common internet game; however, they put their own little spin to it. First off, the web design is very well done and quite fun. Everything stylistically makes sense, and is reflective of the Rabid Rabbit character. It was also fun to see modified versions of iconic Ubisoft characters. The main attraction to this site is the game, however. It's a simple "shoot the animal out of a canon" type game, but their spin is that they have you shooting the Rabid Rabbit across the world. The map appears to be from Google Earth, although I'm not sure. Either way, it's an interesting spin, and I found it particularly clever that they placed landmarks on all of the Ubisoft studios around the world. http://25years.ubi.com/minigame/flash/en/
