Typography Homework 5/11

Final Typography Animation

CUBAN MISSILE CRISIS

LIBBY inspired me the most this semester. so she thinks. she was helpful for the last graphics project though. But really I loved doing the bookcovers. That was my favorite. I had a hard time at first and I was about to change to do a bird book hahahaha. But I kept my Bronte books. And I think the outcomes were better than I expected and I would love to do more book design. I also liked the timeline even though I had a hard time with that one. I still like the teal one but I think the other one is more fitting. The workbook was awesome to do. I learned to so much more about typography and I look back on my first semester in typography and you were right Andrea, I was shitty. I also was inspired by the AfterEffects because now I don't feel so lost in it and I would actually like to pursue it more after this semester.. i think. So overall I was inspired by each project we did in typography.

Typography Homework 4/27

Journal 12-

Paula Scher- Syncopated is when everything is in order but one thing is off. She used that for a Jazz place. I like how she is very get to the point. She said she uses her first idea or second and if she doesn't get it on the second she doesn't use it. She created the Citi logo and her first idea was the one that worked. I hope that one day logo design for me or design at all will be that easy. I would ask how long will that take me?!

Pentragram- All about all the people who left and joined the Pentagram in the first few minutes. Pentagram exists for the partners to make what they want to make. "Constant process of renewal." P into 18 pieces representing each partner. They really value their partners though.

James Victore- He is a poster designer from NY. Really good stuff. Kind of dark. Especially the creepy background music. I would ask him where his ideas come from.. what makes him think of the things he does, is he more of an illustrator or designer or a mix?
