Type Rhythm & Movement
Overview
This exercise is to explore in a low-consequence environment, various ways that elements can be used to imply movement, and more importantly, rhythm within a design. The secondary purpose is to become comfortable with treating text and font as primarily visual elements.
Approach
Going analogue – printing type and moving it randomly on a scanner
Going digital – going on to Photoshop and Illustrator and playing with type
Breaking the rule – breaking and stretching type to create movement
