Alphabet Practice



Monday 7th - Practical

In this my second practical session we were set the task of designing images out of letters. For example ->
I created an alien for the letter 'A' and a giraffe for the letter 'G'. This task for me was something completely new which I had never experimented with before as I'm just used to drawing an alien of giraffe..
By only being able to use the typefaces we were given it was a lot harder to integrate and combine some letters to make a clear image. The 'E' for example featured in the bottom right image was created using three letters (d, j and a c) I realised after this attempt that the simpler the idea i.e. the less letters used the more effective the image. 
This task really made me appreciate that literally anything can be used to create an image, thus increasing my fascination and interest for the are of typography.
