Impossible dreams HW due for Thursday

Hey guys

Homework is to research 2 type posters and  2 creative type faces analyse answering the following questions.

See the following websites for some good examples:

www.handmadefont.com

http://www.typographicposters.com/

http://www.webdesignerdepot.com/2009/09/30-typography-posters-that-youve-probably-never-seen-before/

Answer the following questions within your analysis:

Who designed it? 

Whats appealing about the typeface/poster? Colour / materials / scale / layout / letter-forms etc.

What is/could the typeface/poster be used for?

How could you use similar techniques within your own work.

Hey guys

This week you should be producing experimental collage in response to designers Hannah Hoch, Eduardo Recife and Martin O'neill. Lot's of you have already done this research so you should be producing a variety of responses, not just one - Study the illustrators work closely before jumping in.

Use photocopies of your gold card and photography
magazines
pens, pencils for lines and scribbles
coloured paper
textures
and anything else that will add interest to your pieces.

You will be using these within your mixed media poster so be sure they are advertising your Impossible Dream effectively and communicating the right message.

You probably noticed HW didn't upload to the blog last week (yay for you!) so i hope this week off has allowed you to catch up with all other HW's.

See you all Thursday!!
