I recently worked on a logo redraw project for NCPD. NCPD wanted to have their logo on some products but the logo file they provided was too small and pixelated. Therefore, Juan wanted me to redraw that. The logo was a bit complicated since it included graphic as shown below. It took me around half an hour to finish tracing the graphic but what took me the most was fining the exact font to match the logo.
I was having a hard time finding that exact font to match their logo, therefore, I asked Mike, who also worked in the Graphic Design Department, for helped. He gave me a tip on how they usually worked on redrawing logo, which was to trace the letter instead of finding the right one. He mentioned that the font of the logo would not be changing so it was better to trace them instead of finding the font. From this project, I learned that sometimes you have to think differently and it will save you lots of time. I also think that it comes from experience.
