Description

 

The logo of the CBS documentary: The Day the Music Died - The Story of Don McLean's American Pie. Plus the title of the single using the original font.

 

American Pie is probably my favorite rock song ever. It talks about the end of the American Dream, from the optimism of the 50s to the disillusionment of the late 60s. Rich in references, kinda metaphorical and sometimes very cryptic. Nostalgia of things I haven't experienced that hit like a train.

 

Of course I hate the Madonna version 🤣

  • Logo designed using three heights, three layers each to ensure solid colors. Black, white and blue/red on top, just that one color change.
  • Each plate has been tweaked a bit, so try to not mess up the settings. Logo has a regular base (0.20 L, 0.4 LW), but the top (0.76 to 1.8) has been modified with 0.3 LW to ensure small bits will be printed. Letters are printed by object (they can be that close regardless). And letters guide has one wall, no top/bottom shell and 8% grid infill to waste as less filament as possible.
  • I have included a “letters guide” to perfectly place the letters on the wall. If you have good spatial skills you don't probably need it (I do, for sure).
  • I stick the prints to the wall using double sided adhesive tape, but this weights almost nothing, so you can use putty stick as well.
