Typography photos on Flickr

3rd round of exploration geared towards developing in-camera techniques for animating motion graphics to arrive at a less mechanical, more organic and optical feel, but with a process that provides flexibility for content control. No compositing is used here, no photoshop manipulation. My constraints are exposures no longer than 30 seconds, all typography and imagery is composed and exposed during that duration.

The next round will deal with registration issues, color and further exploration of foreground / middleground / background shifting of elements.

Time [detail] by Edward van Grol

Detail of the 'Time' art project: Clock

To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under heaven: (…)

A time to tear, and a time to sew;

a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;

A time to love, and a time to hate;

a time of war; and a time of peace.

(Ecclesiastes 3:7-8)

Based on this phrase from the Bible I made this cardboard.There is so much wisdom in this phrase that I decided to make a typographic project from it. This was my first big experiment with black letters on a white background with fineliner and marker.

I tried to let the typography tell the story: I love trying to say something not only with words but also with typography. ‘A time to tear’ is at the top of the cardboard: the letters are actually tearing themselves. Looking at the ‘time to sew’ in the middle, you will see that it is actually made of threads, curling and forming words. War and hate are written in big black fonts, while peace and love are made of lighter capitals. And ‘a time to speak’ and ‘to keep silence’ form a sound symbol, together with the hourglass.

In the central you can read the moral of the story: “what time is it?” It can be time of war or time of peace today; this can change from minute to minute. The crack right through the cardboard stands for the enormous difference between all these contradictions and the strange way in which they belong together.

If you take a closer look to the clock you’ll see it’s actually not a clock. You will see the numbers 21, 3, 7 and 8. These numbers refer to the place of the text in the Bible: the 21st book, 3rd chapter, 7th and 8th verse.

Haas Comparative study of font weights found within sans-serif families of Swiss/German origin by infinitespark

3

The above chart uses the original Haas (Team'77) weights and naming convention for the sample text in the Unica column. The graduation of weights in LTUnivers were used as a guide upon which to hang the other fonts' weights. This was determined by the weight of the Capital I, with its pixel width noted on the left of the chart. Each font's height was adjusted so that all x-heights are equal. This offers a more natural appreciation of each individual font's density. In each case it is interesting to see the separation of weight allocations suggesting the priority and/or use of a particular typeface.
