We're making a series of three books based on a designer. I chose Tibor Kalman, former editor-in-chief of the Benetton sponsored Colors magazine. One about their life, another about their work, and one about their historical context.

Work-in-progress for a book of lovelists.

movie posters

This assignment is to create a series of posters based on three of the six films we watched for class, which were: 1) Mulholland Dr 2) Tristram Shandy 3) 2046 4) Dead Man 5) Amores Perros 6) Reprise. I chose to do Mulholland Dr, Tristram Shandy and 2046, based on the theme of interpretation. I asked everyone in class to send me synopses of the films we watched, edited them, and put them on these posters.

type specimen poster

Haven't posted in a while. I'm sure everyone has been waiting for updates with bated breath. Anyway, these are initial sketches, and then a larger one printed to actual size (shown in the last two) for a type specimen poster assignment. We had to choose a place and then choose a typeface that evoked that place. My place is a grove of spiky vertical trees by Wintergreen Lake in Rock Ridge State Park, and I chose Nobel Condensed as my typeface because of its geometric-ality. I was criticized for not making a 'postery' enough poster. Whatever.
