18.01.2012 TSI workshop – Detail & recognition

18.01.2012 @CSM TSI workshop – Detail & recognition 

2 hours TSI workshop by Phil Baines. 

 

It's basically looking close to typeface we given each and choose one letter which could show well the character of the typeface. And then make an A2 size poster with a part of the letter to represent the typeface using 2 A2 colour sheets.

It was so fun and so quick, and I am so slow. 

I tried to measure everything of the letter – angle, length, height, etc – to extend the letter to fit A2 size from small letter. And I had one mistake. But it came out totally wrong result. Because I didn't believe what I see but what I measure even though I feel it's something wrong. So I've got very wrongly thick serif in the letter 'K' on red and green poster. I will never rely on math.
