Unit 39 - Typographic Design

Talking Type

In this piece I was asked to gather an interesting image of a person and base a piece of typography on it. I chose a controversial image depicting a man showing himself as a drug dealer. I chose to follow the style of a modern anti drug poster showing the dangers of cocaine. Using crushed up mints I created letters and some fake lines. This created a very controversial and shocking piece of typography showing how dangerous cocaine can be as it’s all about the profit for dealers.




Expressive Words

Here I had to create some typography expressing a word using only letters in Helvetica bold. Using the words murder, fused, explosion, acrobat and Backward I set off by designing them by hand then created the final product in Illustrator
