Meetings

So after a very productive meeting with my mentor Heloise this evening I'm feeling a bit more confident about the state my pdf is in, And she even helped to generate ideas for the last of my letters that where eluding me.

B is now for branding, and I'm going to look at illustrating the type used for well know brand logos, What happens if you use the coca cola font for starbucks?

G is for grid, not quite 100% on an idea for the content but something along the lines of setting type to a grid.

X is for XOXOXO looking text typography and creating a pixelated typeface, that i could then use to write a text dictionary, or write out text language.

Also after some help via email from my tutor I'm a little bit better of with J, L and R. Justify, Language and Research, Just need to think of a way to make justifies content a little more interesting.

A is for arranging.

The A of my Alphabet is for arranging, I think its fun to make type by simply arranging objects so I created this typeface out of seeds for the first spread of my pdf, A is for arranging.

Final colours

So after many a discussion with my tutor these are the final colours for my pdf, the pink works with the green, the blue with the yellow, and overall they make for a really nice aesthetic.
