Typography

   Monday we began working on the typography part of our brief. It was really fun coming up with typefaces and ways of depicting the meaning of my word in just type. I had done some thumbnail drawings and taken some photographs on Sunday but I realised on Monday that they may have been too illustrative. I'm posting them as a way of showing my (hopeful) development this week. My thumbnails from Monday are still in college so I'm not able to post those as I'm at home sick since yesterday. Today I plan on continuing my thumbnails and start experimenting more with type. Yesterday I got some research done and also looked at the typography lecture. Hopefully I'll be able to post a lot of work by tonight.

Type made from sponges.

I think this one in particular may be too illustrative as I'm depending on the leaves in the puddle to convey some of the meaning of 'submerge' but it was fun to experiment with.
