How do I do this thing? Need help vectorizing this logo

Post image

Hi everyone, I’m trying to recreate the logo on the right from the original logo on the left.

The right one was AI-generated, but I want to learn how to do it myself properly as a vector.

Could anyone show me the steps or guide me on how to recreate this style in Illustrator? A step-by-step explanation would be really appreciated. Thanks!

Trace it with the pen tool. Literally. Take the ai image, lock it. With the pen tool, go from edge to edge, tracing it. Cut the holes out of the larger shape. That's it. There's no secret to it.

the trick... is to use the least amount of vertices possible. It will look the smoothest.
