Details

Jcameras is an opensource software that records and play the computer mouse behavior, created and owned by zswang, so I decided to give my contribution designing this logo for this project.

The owner added the prososed logo to the README file of the project.

For the graphic concept the owner of the project presented me with two images for inspiration, the first image was a film camera and the second image was a computer screen with a mouse arrow.

So I created a mixture of the two images, making the body of the camera the screen of the computer, where I put the arrow of the mouse, I added a few lines in red to simulate the mouse click on the screen. As we know this software allows us to record the movements of the mouse on the screen, so I filled one of the coils in red, to represent the recording red light.

For the choice of colors the owner did not make any request, so I used the color black and the red color which gives a nice contrast to this logo.

I chose ISOCPEUR as a font because it fits well with minimal look of the logo.
