So, I was randomly browsing YouTube (as I often do when I have homework or other important matters to attend to) and I stumbled across this little bit of awesome. While this might qualify as more of multimedia than graphic design, it is a prime example of how a logo or an image can drastically change form and yet still be readily recognizable. Some of these versions of the symbol are so different, but each one is instantly identified with the same character. I suppose the lesson here is that if you feel like a project you are working on has only one view and the lines must go just so, or else it's not going to be what it's supposed to be, just take a break and rethink it. Decide on two or three elements that make the design what it is, but play around with everything else. In every symbol the ears are pointy and the wings go out to the side, always the flying bat silhouette, but every other aspect is toyed with, and, in the end, it still looks like Batman. Never be afraid to open your mind to new possibilities.
Also, I used this because Batman is flippin' SWEEEEEEET!
