Graphics -Day Two




After watching video of Milton Glaser - Point walking about his work in graphics design and how he worked in the industry. As well as another video called ----.

From this we explores creating fonts. I decide to to do experiments such as scrunching up papers, drawing scribbles and using string and paper to see what shapes come out of them organically. From this I liked the shapes of the letter coming from the piece of string, therefore I used this you create my new style of font.

We then looked at a font called 'Gill Sans' and 'Hevetica Neue' to see the similarities and the differences. From that we had to use the letters to create an image, only being one word. I decide to do my last name 'Miller' and then chose to have the letters all different sizes, and rearrange the letters to they where not in a conventional fashion.

  1. Discussing the journey of your alphabet type was good; being able to join aspects together and having reasoning behind the design. However in the second section briefly mention why you carried out the experiments you did? why you used certain materials? It helps to give you a solid base.
