I am so happy to be in Vis Comm! After the first few days I'm already loving it...So our project brief: We were each given a letter form the alphabet and were asked to choose a word beginning with that letter based around the topic ' The State of The Nation ' . My letter is 'T' and I began by brainstorming all the words I could think of based on this topic then narrowed it down to only 'T' words . I spent a lot of time researching all the different words , the urban dictionary had some really funny definitions to some of these words so I used them as well to sort of expand my knowledge of these words too......
After the brainstorming I started looking at different type faces so I could sort of educate myself on their form. The idea is to find a type face that matches my word and sort of conveys its meaning. I really enjoy typography (after Berlin I think I'm newly inspired) and I'm so excited for this project! We also have been keeping a personal sketchbook or artistic journal which is fun and because it can be based on any topic or have any medium.... I've only a few pages done but I look forward to really getting into it !
