Tyoe 3: Risographs

My speech design first started out with unconsidered type and abstract designs that did not do a very great job at conveying the entirety of the speech.

Then I made this new poster that I thought incorporated the anger of the speech, but ultimately made the design feel to clustered and not designed well.

Then I started to actually view the patterns of her movements and used lines of type to convey sharp and fluid movements she makes across the stage. Then I took keywords and made them stand out in different phrases that really emulated the speech.
Here is my final risograph print:

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.
