Typeface

These assignments are very colorful. They are on an 8x11 inch document. Most of the letters/words are fancy looking. I was expected to produce three 8x11 inch Photoshop documents by using specific tools in Photoshop CS3. I had to use the letters in my first, middle, and last name and create some sort of illusion art with the letters in each of my name by either rotating or flipping the letters. I also had to use either warm/cool, monochromatic, and free colors .My final products were neat and fancy, except for the one with my last name. I used the “Hobo Std” font for my first name, "Black Chancery" font for my middle name, and “Academy Engraved” for my last name.

I used the Elements of Art by using space and color. I used space so that my letters didn't look too clumped up but at the same time enough space where you can barely read it. I used color by using cool colors such as blue, a light violet color, and teal for my middle name. I used a variety of colors for my first name and for my middle name I used monochromatic colors such as black brown, and tan for my last name. I used the Principles of Design by using balance. I used balance so that it could give it that fulfill neat look but everything isn’t all on one line. For example, in my middle name I made the letter "B" huge while the letter "R" is on the bottom of letter "B" hooked at the end while rotated but it's still balanced .My final designs do not look like my sketch because in order for my letters to fit completely on the whole document, I had to do different rotations with some of my letters.
