As it turns out, there are 4 artists behind the ever-changing Google homepage logos. These artists are so diversely talented that they can make oil-painting look-a-likes as well as emulate famous cartoonists.
This CBS segment that aired this morning goes behind the scenes to interview these artists and reveal the both the process and history of Google Doodles.
In the past, I was sure Google Doodles were created by one guy (and I was right). Not because the designs looked similar, but because coming up with a sketch a day seems like an easy job for one person to do. Little did I know that each country homepage also had to have a different logo.
Judging by the amount of work seen in this clip, I’d imagine the job to be somewhat stressful with deadlines every 24 hours. Then again, I’m sure they’re rewarded handsomely.
