Final piece for letterforms as a representation of a chosen artist's style (Paolozzi). Letterforms created from electrical components from a television set, manipulated on photoshop and presented in a promotional poster format.
PROCESS
Based on your sketches and feedback, design the complete alphabet from A – Z using your preselected shapes as the basis for the design. Do the following:
•Finalize sketches– CLEAN up any pencil marks, smudges, rough edges
-If needed, fill in / outline using a fine tip Sharpie style marker
•Scan your final sketches and place in Illustrator
•Produce your final alphabet in Adobe Illustrator
-Create your shapes as vector elements using the pen tool or shape tool
-Stick to and refine the system, until the letterforms feel consistent.
-Gradually construct more characters.
-Test letters in words periodically to expose any flaws and/or inconsistencies.
•Create a full alphabet consisting of all letters from A-Z in Illustrator
For this design, I created the shapes with a pen tool instead of moving individual shapes to create the letterforms, so I accidentally flipped some of the shapes.
Experimental letterforms which represent 'alone and crowded', 'alone' can be seen at the top left corner of the page. Using different weights of fine line pen and letraset.
This was a photogrpahy assignment i did where i had to find letters of the alphabet in random objects, and places.
Chicago Printers Guild cook out. Waaay too much meat. But somehow I'm pretty sure it was all gone by the end of the night.
when things get real busy around here we don't have time for silly little hand held planners. we bring out the BIG guns to make sure things get done. (in the form of a parent sheet and a sharpie).
