Vincent-3 Channels Poster Ideations



Simon Smith - 3 Initial Poster Ideas



new ideation for my poster ~ zhen



i would like to do something like this for my experimental typography. i wanted to make more personal and fun out of this...(^_^) something like "Experimental Typography is Cool/Tight"



I did one on the letter "E"...and it tooks me almost an hours...can you believe that....sigh....but i enjoyed it. I was thinking that in each letter, there will be only one animal that start with that letter (ie. the elephant is the only animal in this letter that start with "E") and the rest won't.

Although viewers may not realize right away, it's a little bonus to reward those who look at my poster closely enough. alright...better go back to work...(^_^)!

Gutenberg Website Ideation - Karen Chan

For my website, I also chose to focus on metal type. The navigation to different sections of the single page will be on the left side. The content area, which scrolls, is centered below the heading. On the left side is a column of thumbnails for various images related to metal type and Gutenberg. I will probably add a small footer as well. There are links at the end of each section that returns you to the top of the page.

For my posters, I chose to focus on metal type. The location of these would probably be in the library or the bookstore on campus.

Maria Alvarez - Summary of Concept and Cover















For this project, My book "Print and Movable Type" is mainly focused on the history of movable type. I discussed several techniques of movable type such as metal type, wooden type and also woodblock printing all of which date back to some of the earliest Chinese Dynasties. My project 2 was based on Johannes Gutenberg who is the "Father of Type". I included the significance of his invention, which was the printing press because it was a huge impact on the history of type.

James Molgaard - Summory of Concept and Cover


My concept is derived from the topic I had for the concept map.  When doing the research on design and typography in The Netherlands I noticed that the currency there was really amazing.  I then found out that it was gone because the country turned to the Euro.  My book is going to be about the Dutch Guilder and how beautiful the designs are on the coins and bills, and how terrible the uniformity of the Euro is.

Here's a version of the poster that I'm working on.

Jaezar Soriano - Project 3 - Cover and Summary of Concept


Summary of Concept

The book that I am doing is entitled “Type Technology: A History”. My original Project 2 topic was about Gutenberg, so I felt that making a book on the technology of type would be a good extension. The premise for the book is simple enough: I go through all the techniques contributing to the technology behind type, starting with handwriting and calligraphy, going into mechanical type, and ending with digital type. As far as the collateral for the book, I am planning to design them as promotional materials for the book.
