Logo concepts for Studio Mokusai's VR game Beneath The Cherry Bark. The game involves being transported to Japan during the period of woodblock printing's development. The player must learn the printing process to escape back to reality.
The inspiration and idea behind the logo was for it to be VR headset-like or have representation of eyes. Then, to incorporate the famous sakura or cherry blossom flower, and rings of a tree.
In the end, the decision was to go with the rougher more organic version to fit better with the group's vision. Later I developed our Ident logo animation in after effects.
