Process and Production.

In our first lesson Nick told us to pick a word that would define us, and make a font out of it. I did a similar choice as last year and decided to go and make illustrations for fonts. Below are my initial sketches for my word/phrase: I Am Terrified. 


Upd8: Wanting to move on from just rough sketches I decided to move up my phrase into a digital environment and ”smoothen” its edges. Even though, some of it still could use (and will get) some improvements. (Specially the “D” and possibly “I”’s) I’m still rather satisfied about this turn out.


Upd8 (yet again): In this lecture Nick told us to enlarge our fonts and Tracy gave me a very good idea. I decided that how ill finish this piece is by enlarging the letters, cutting the out and play with lighting to cast shadows which will form the letters. So far these are the main letters I enlarged, since I’m still working on improving the remaining letters.
Experemintation and results will be posted soon, hopefully.
