With the wake of the tragedy in Japan and how I was personally affected by it, I wanted to create something that represented the Japanese people right now. The poster displays the Japanese flag built up out of citizens holding hands in such a time. The Kanji written below says “kizuna” which is a spirit of unity, a bond, and the connection between humankind. Font used is Bembo.
I hope you all enjoy the poster.
Type Anatomy Project
Goal is to create an animal using purely type. Then to list different type anatomy within the image.
I decided to do a Narwhal. I’m… still not too sure how well this is coming out. But class is soon and I gotta print what I’ve got so far.
Created this poster for my Kappa Sigma Fraternity at AAU. Got to practice some of my Graphic Design talents. Also, if you attend AAU, come to our Brother Auction! More details will be posted up at University.
Created this V-Day card for my girl today. It showed my geekiness, but I had to explain what a kern was haha. Created an envelope for it too really fast. I did it in 30 minutes while she was getting all prettied up for our Valentines Day dinner.
I AM THE FLASH.
Also, I find it rather ironic I use the word “kern” in it, yet didn’t do any kerning in the piece. Haha… woops.
Did critique today. Teacher actually really liked my type sketches. He said it was one of the best in the class today. That makes me feel better, I was really doubting them! I am in the second phase of refining currently. Trying to keep the letters consistant and even. We’ll see how it goes. I’ll scan some work today. I finally got my normal printer set up. Next I gotta set up my Epson Pro printer.
god dammit batman…. looks like im gonna start painting now
OH GOD. I FEEL SO GUILTY NOW. :C I think this is worse than Tim Gunn. *sob*

This is my first doodle of typography I did. Done in a Versals style. Its kinda okay. I think it could be better, and there are obvious errors I see right away. But this was just the doodle stage, so it doesn’t really matter and hasn’t been refined yet.
First Typography class is having me draw out 9 letters in as many ways possible. They must be calligraphic or bitmap. Sounds pretty interesting to me. I need a grid…
Will post pictures of my progress!
Heading to class. Today I’ve got Typography 1: Hierarchy and Form. I hope I excel in this class!
I finished my accordion book! I was going to do a more detailed diecut in the front but A) it’s 5am and B) it has to be done tomorrow I have got a few more things left and then finals are FINISHED!
