I start to digitize the typefaces that I sketch and seeing it finalizing, shows that my sketches are not impossible to create it. Hearing feedback on certain typefaces from Mr. Vinod makes a improvement by making it less complicated to see.

I chose power as my gif because the E represent as the socket gave me the idea of plugging it in to turn on the light. This is my first time creating a gif using photoshop.

This task was quite stressful because its my first time using Adobe InDesign which lead me to a lot of confusion when learning. The hardest part is applying the creativity into a work that I've never produce/ learned before. 


TASK 2 : EDITORIAL LAYOUT DESIGN

This task was a little bit hard because I have to find a creative way to come up with a text layout design by understanding/relating to the meaning of the title. I wasn't sort of happy with my current task because its very plain but easy to understand for everyone. Also I've never use Adobe InDesign before so its complicated

REFLECTION

Experience

For this entire SEM work, I learned a lot of design principles, composition and see the process of creating a font(and making it). Learning Typography are sort of new for me because I've done producing poster before but without knowing the meaning of anything I learned from Typography. 


Observation

Typography taught me a lot of detailed things which cause me to go around in the real world and notices a lot of fonts being used. Understanding how to balance with the composition without using graphic. Realizing that creating a font is so hard, especially knowing how to get the perfect curve. These made me aware of how I produce a poster or font in the future.

Findings

I learned that design course cannot be procrastinate or else we will suffer a lot when its near submission date. If we rush then our work are mostly going to be terrible and losing marks. Also keep asking for feedback from anyone in order to achieve the best work.
