TYPE 3: Speech Analysis

The speech I chose was Ashley Judd's "Nasty Woman" at the
Women's March, the video is here.

Some things I picked up were:

She emphasized a lot of key words
Very aggressive with sharp movements and sharp articulate
Also emotional at times, can hear the sadness in her voice with provokes empathy
Pauses often for effect, but never too long or too much
Her voice fluctuates in volume to add depth within her speech
Drawn-out words to articulate and assert like CONflict, TRANSphobia, etc.
Seems frustrated like begging for people to hear her words, but also confirming what a lot of those people feel
Moves her body a lot and has no problem speaking and articulating with her hands and arms
Voice cracks a few times because of the force she is putting behind them
Yelling almost, in a very "as a matter of fact" way1
Never interrupts herself - she does it once because she accidently said a brand name of something and then corrected herself and went on to what she was talking about
She messed up only once, a little flustered after the brand name mix up but it wasn't quite noticeable (only when you've watched it a lot)

Type Critique: Kelsey Mack

Critique on Kelsey Mack's type project: Instantly the waves of type grabbed my attention. Some waves stay consistent throughout the piece, all forming the same waves through each line of type. Some of the words are changed to a different typeface, which some are very successful in pulling out information like the word Kremlin 's scale and bold typeface instantly draws my attention there. There are some issues with letter spacing, like the word "Kremlin" the r and e are very close together which i'm sure is because of the curve it sits on but kerning could have helped. Some of the shifted typefaces / scale of type overlaps other type, creating irregular spacing - i'm not sure if that is a right design decision because these hefty holes in the body feel erratic. Some work well though, the "oh" covers up the text above nicely. Curvilinear lines aren't exact, for example the spiral on the bottom seems to have ridges in it, not a nice smooth curve ...

Gestalt: Final

This post is going to be combining a few different class days in Visual Communication I. Wednesday 9/7 : We toured the Print Shop and got our information to print our final version of our Visual Order: Gestalt books. I did not get a desk crit with Emmy that day. Monday 9/12: I was absent this day with a doctor's note, but I sent my mockup to Emmy, while others brought their printed mockups to class for group critiques. Wednesday 9/14: This day we started our new project Monday Prototyping, which has it's own blog post. For Gestalt, I wanted to make this note to place the feedback I got on my mockup. Tyler Make body text lowercase. Words in capital letters have the same shape (a rectangle) so, they’re harder to distinguish Rethink horizontal lines, everything is already distinguishable in their own space Rethink border around both left and right side How to make everything more related First few pages have block behind text, but not the rest Emmy Too s...

Type 3: Sculpture

I wanted to focus on the main "Form One" and "Form Two" part within the reading. I decided to take two spherical shapes and have one be smaller as the underdeveloped twin and fill it with black ink. Both spheres have smaller orbs inside them signifying lifeforms. In the underdeveloped one, the orbs are drowning in black ink. Around the pedestal that Form Two is sitting on, there is black wire coming out of the bottom and winding upward as if it is attacking / trying to infect Form One hanging above. Form One I decided to leave clear with bright orbs inside with a tiny red / pink flake that can be seen if you look closely. These are just some of the images I took that I wanted to add to the blog, I have a lot more but I didn't want this post to be super long.
