This study selected brand logos of six South Korean and Chinese banks including KB, IBK, SH, ICBC, ABC, and SISB, conducted Eye Tracking experiment among 36 South Korean and Chinese university students(Nine male and female students, respectively), and analyzed the difference of visual attention of consumers on bank brand logo, symbol, Korean/Chinese character logo types as well as the difference of visual attention of these consumers on English logo types. Results were represented by using statistics and visualization including GAZEPLOT, HEATMAP, and visual expression. Results showed that most generally gazed logo types more often and longer than symbols when they watched bank brand logos. A slight difference was observed between both groups in terms of gazing English logo types. This study has a implication that it proposed the possibility of drawing quantitative and reliable outcomes by utilizing eye tracking device and approaching in an objective standpoint beyond a methodological aspect on bank brand logo primarily leaning over the analysis of case research or design development. Moreover, findings are expected to serve as basic data for proposing the direction of special bank brand logo design and marketing strategies.

이 연구의 목적은 브랜드로고의 가치를 타당성 있는 평가방법을 통하여 객관화하고 이에 따라 브랜드로고의 역할과 브랜드이미지 기여도의 중요성을 부각시켜 궁극적으로 브랜드로고의 존재가치를 향상시키는데 있다. 브랜드 아이덴티티의 이미지를 형성하는 핵심요소라 할 수 있는 브랜드로고는 주관적인 요소로 간주되어 그 가치를 객관화할 수 없는 것으로 간주되어 왔다. 이러한 인식은 로고의 결정과정에서 전문적인 프로세스 없이 경영진의 주관적이고 순간적인 판단으로 이어져 브랜드이미지에 좋지 않은 영향을 주는 것은 물론 브랜드로고 자체의 가치를 하락시키는 결과를 가져오게 된다. 이러한 비전문가의 주관적 판단에 따른 잘못된 선택을 최소화하기 위해서 브랜드로고는 객관적으로 수치화 된 평가의 틀을 필요로 한다. 또한 브랜드로고는 현재의 이미지보다는 미래의 이미지에 초점을 맞추어 개발되어야 하므로 일반인들의 선호도에 의족하기 보다는 전문가의 주관적 판단을 객관화시킨 평가에 의해 결정되어야한다. 본 연구는 로고를 개발하거나 최종안을 선택 할 때 현업에서 발생하는 디자인에 대한 판단을 가능한 객관적으로 비교 평가할 수 있도록 로고의 개발과정과 검수과정에서 객관적이면서 동시에 전문적인 측정모형(가칭: GradingLogo)을 제시하고자 한다. 또한 제시된 측정모형으로 실제 로고평가에 적용하여 그 효과를 검증해 보고자 한다. 본 연구의 구체적인 방법은 다음과 같다. 첫째, 기존문헌을 통해 로고평가에 대하여 고찰 후 전문 디자이너의 주관적인 인식에서 로고평가항목을 발견함으로서 좋은 로고를 결정짓는 모델을 구체화시킨다. 둘째, 도출한 평가기준을 실제로 로고평가에 적용하여, 로고디자인의 기준에 대한 각 차원의 중요도를 논의하고, 디자인 경영의 효과적인 도구로서의 기준을 제시한다.

브랜드 로고는 상품과 서비스의 경쟁이 의미적으로 시작되는 출발점인 바, 로고 기호의 의미작용과 커뮤니케이션에 대한 분석은 브랜드 간 차이와 변별 요소의 발견에 기여할 수 있다. 이에 본 논문은 브랜드로고 기호작용에 대하여 총체적이고 일관성 있는 판독을 위한 분석 체계인 'SCoL' (Analysis frame of signification and communication for the brand logo, SCoL, 스콜) 를 개발하고, 이를 서비스의 초기 경쟁에 있어 로고 기호의 의존도가 높은 소셜 미디어 브랜드 로고 분석에 적용함으로써 제안의 타당성을 증명하고자 한다. SCoL은 브랜드 로고 기호의 4가지 형식 구성 요소를 토대로 퍼스의 도상, 지표, 상징을 통한 1단계 의미 작용 분석에 이어 2단계 분석으로 야콥슨의 이론을 적용하여 커뮤니케이션 기능을 해석할 수 있도록 고안되었다. SCoL 프레임을 적용하여 소셜 미디어 브랜드 로고 기호를 분석한 결과 소셜 미디어 브랜드들은 기호작용을 통해 고유한 의미 영역을 구축하고 있었으며, 또한 서로 다른 커뮤니케이션 기능에 의존하여 브랜드의 의미를 전달하고 있음을 발견하였다. SCoL은 분석 과정에서 브랜드 로고 기호의 구성 요소에 대한 판독 단위를 제공하여 기호학적 관점에서 로고의 의미 작용과 커뮤니케이션 기능 해석을 위한 유효한 분석 도구로 역할 하였다.
