computer arts blog

i chose an article called the mtv logo and its in the magazine computer arts. i chose this because i love the channel mtv and im interested in the background of it.it states that mtv started on august 1st 1981. i never thought it would have been this old? when mtv arrived it was quite in your face tv, this appealed to 12 to24 year olds and that the rebellious teens loved it. i think this has change a lot, not the fact that it isn't in your face but the age range, its more like 8-50 now days i would say. it says that the logo from then on was more like a brand and was used on clothing videos and games. the logo is still used in the same way today. it is probably one of the most recognized logos of the world. the logo was designed by a company called Manhattan Design a small and no very experienced company. the mtv logo is such a big thing to do with the channels success its "culture defining".
