"Times is the club nobody goes to anymore because it's too crowded."

I'm doing a big post of my completed work from fall semester. You can click on the project number to download complete .pdf's of the assignments :)

First up, work from Visual Language:

Project 1
Goal: To explore formal elements of design through a series of contrasting compositions





Project 2
Goal: Explore different methods of creating imagery (by manipulating xeroxes of objects)





Project 3
Goal: Create digital abstractions with the pen tool in adobe illustrator from chosen xeroxes from project 2




Project 4... was in progress when the strike started




Next, Typography 1 projects:

Project 1
Goal: Create monograms and a label to be used on future projects




Project 2
Goal: Typeset an Aesop's Fable with expressive text and layout grid, and design a cover for process work









Project 3
Goal: Create a poster for the ROM advertising an exhibit about early forms of writing; this included composing the main image for the poster by learning how to write or create the letterforms on a medium that reflected the traditional medium





Project 4... was a group presentation about "good", "bad", and "ugly" typography :)
