Task Two - MIX IT UP

This weeks task was called 'MIX IT UP'
This task included exploration with colour and pattern, regarding this i feel i have met all requirements.


Below is a some Typography i have attempted, using a black fine liner pen repeating the word 'TRAVEL' in multiple styles. I have also attempted recreating my own text with masking tape.


Below is a photo taken from my sketch book where i have created my own font with the grouping of abstract vector shapes such as Spirals and Circles etc. I tested out its appearance on inverted Black and white backgrounds and below also added colour and gradients to each vector.



Here are a select few experiments with font. At the top of the page you can see my comparison with font and colour and how i can make certain clashing colour combinations go together nicely. There are also some halftone styled text on the bottom of the page with both digital and hand drawn application. I have also reflected my previous task of scale and proportion and also symbolising my capital T being the main item of the design.


I have looked at the idea of 'Banners' to present my font in a new and visually pleasing way. i am also pleased with my choice in colour from both pictures seen below as they all seem to work perfectly together to make the title stand out. Also note that the lower image is a continued refinement of the colour/font comparison seen in the above work


My banner interest has taken a different approach in the work seen below keeping it more controlled with limited 'Flow' creating a more Business and formal approach
