# Day-16 — Video Script: Logo Variations, Clear Space, Presentation & Export
**Runtime target:** ~26 minutes | **Format:** screen recording + narration
---
**[0:00 — INTRO]**
NARRATION: "Welcome to Day 16 — the final day of the logo module. You have
a beautiful vector logo. But a professional never delivers just one file.
Today we build the complete logo system: five variations, clear-space and
minimum-size rules, a presentation sheet that sells the idea, and a perfect
export package. This is what clients actually pay for."
**[1:00 — SCREEN: master logo, Object Manager]**
NARRATION: "First, protect the master. In the Object Manager, I lock the
finished logo on a layer called 'Master'. Everything we build today starts
as a duplicate — Control+D — of this master. Never rebuild, always
duplicate. That's how every version stays identical."
SCREEN CUE: Lock the layer; duplicate the logo.
**[3:00 — SCREEN: building variations]**
NARRATION: "Variation one: Primary — the full-color combination mark, as
is. Variation two: Secondary — I ungroup, restack the symbol above the
wordmark for tight square spaces, and regroup. Variation three: Mono —
select everything, Uniform Fill, solid black. One color, for invoices and
stamps. Variation four: Reversed — solid white, and I place it on a dark
rectangle to prove it works. Variation five: Icon-only — delete the
wordmark, keep the symbol. Five versions, one brand."
SCREEN CUE: Build each variation on its own named layer, live.
**[9:30 — SCREEN: clear-space diagram]**
NARRATION: "Now the rules that protect your logo. Clear space: I draw a box
around the logo with margins equal to the height of the letter G — and I
label it. Nothing — no text, no images, no page edge — may enter this zone.
Then minimum size: I place the logo at sixty, thirty, and fifteen
millimeters. Fifteen still reads clearly, so fifteen millimeters is our
minimum. Always test — never guess."
SCREEN CUE: Draw the diagram; show the shrinking size test.
**[13:00 — SCREEN: A3 presentation sheet layout]**
NARRATION: "The presentation sheet — this is what makes clients say yes.
New A3 landscape page. At the top, the hero: primary logo, large. Below, a
neat row of the four other variations. Then the clear-space diagram, the
size test, two lines explaining the concept — 'the leaf cradles the house:
clean homes, clean planet' — and our two brand color swatches. Generous
white space, everything aligned with the docker. This one page tells the
whole brand story."
SCREEN CUE: Lay out the sheet live.
**[19:00 — SCREEN: Export dialog, Ctrl+E]**
NARRATION: "Export time. Control+E. For the web and social: PNG — RGB,
three hundred DPI, and crucially, transparent background enabled. Watch —
I'll open it over a colored background: no white box. For websites: SVG —
true vector, tiny file, sharp at any zoom; I'll prove it in a browser. For
print and clients: PDF of the whole presentation sheet — text selectable,
edges razor sharp. And name files properly: brand, variation, format. Future
you will say thank you."
SCREEN CUE: Export PNG, SVG, PDF; verify each.
**[23:30 — WRAP-UP]**
NARRATION: "Today you built a complete logo system: five variations,
clear-space and minimum-size rules, a client-ready presentation sheet, and
a professional export package. Your assignment: the full GreenNest package —
CDR with organized layers, sheet, and seven export files. Tomorrow we start
a brand-new module: Social Media Design. Your logo is about to go to work
on real Instagram and Facebook posts. See you on Day 17."
SCREEN CUE: Title card with assignment summary.
