CREATIVE FONT DESIGN



The design for the first T-SHIRT PROJECT is going to be based heavily on typography, which we will learn much about in the upcoming month! As an intro to this, you were given a worksheet of an assignment wherein you will develop your own cool/creative font. The worksheet is self-explanatory and the assignment should take AT LEAST a class period (and is worth 15 pts). If you lost the worksheet, you can print it out here (PRINT OUT AT HOME OR AT THE LIBRARY, NOT IN CLASS):




There are student examples posted in the classroom-- not for copying, but to show you successful effort, craftsmanship, etc. A SUCCESSFUL FONT WILL NOT RELY ON THE THICKNESS OF THE PEN/PENCIL... just because a pencil lead line is automatically a certain width when you write with it, doesn't mean your font should be that same width! BOLD up the lines, have VARYING width, etc...
