The aim was to create a simple logo that is easy to use in mostly web appearance and labeling videos. The square emblem symbolizes stability, grounding, balance but most importantly “the square symbolizes our desire to find our way in a confusing world by providing us with directions” At the early stages of bluefx.net when this logo was created the tutorials on it’s site was one of the highest quality content and a lot of people have found directions provided by them in a the confusing world of motion graphics. This is why we ended up using this simple yet meaningful symbol that states for the blue complemented with the “Fx” typo creating a balanced bluefx logo.
