These are some of the different styles that I have had a go at to experiment with the typography brief.
The first one I looked at shadows and perspective to see if this would change the dynamic of the type. To begin with I drew out the normal typography with the grid method to achieve an accurate outline. Then I developed the grid to fit the shadows so that they would all be equal. I’m happy with the outcome of this because I like how the outlines are still visible, and all of them beside each other seem to work well. I don’t think I will take this design further because it wouldn’t fit any of the deigns that I’m wanting to produce, yet I’m glad that I tried it out because I think it was successful.
The second one was a quick sketch so the letters aren’t as equal. but they still stand out as much of the others. I decided to change it from the original outline and develop it to have almost half of it filled in. I don’t think that this looks as good as some of my other designs, but it is still bold and catches the eye, yet it isn’t suitable for any product.
The third one is my personal favourite. For this I did three separate type faces and took the inspiration of the circles to wrap them all around. These worked well together, but then I decided to develop it further by paper cutting it out so that I could experiment with backgrounds and perspective. I like the paper cut style, and I think that it has a rawness to it. I will continue using this style because I enjoy doing it and it all looks aesthetically pleasing. This style could possibly be used on a book cover or packaging and I think it would work well in a range of genres.
