Project 2 Words

  1. What did you learn? I learned how to use words in an effective way to symbolize something. I also learned that it wasn’t as easy as it seemed when I first read the directions.
  2. What was easy? The easy part of this project was picking a word to go with for the project.
  3. What was challenging? Something that was challenging was trying to arrange the words in the correct way. There were many instances where the type just wouldn’t look the way I wanted even after scaling and positioning it. It was also a challenge to make the gradient in the center stand out.
  4. How could your submission be improved? I think my submission could be improved by making the gradient more noticeable as well as making the text a bit smaller.
  5. How could I improve the assignment for the next class? I think the assignment was very interesting and was very well laid out.
  6. How might you apply your knowledge in future assignments or work scenarios? I could use the skills I learned from this project to create a project for a client. In particular a project that primarily uses type to get its message across.
  7. How did a specific reading or video inspire or help you? A video that inspired me was YouTube video. It was about Star Wars so it got me thinking what if I did this typography project on it.
