I chose this as my favorite use of typography by myself from this semester. I really like this business card because I thought it was fun to do and elephants are my favorite animal. Overall, the business cards were definitely my favorite but this is the one I chose that stood out to me.

For this one, we had to find an interesting use of typography in the Sharadin building. I found this example in the hallway. I thought it was really cute and fit the theme very well. The way they incorporated the fish in the lettering was a good idea. I love the movie finding nemo and this project just caught my eye.

I chose to use this bag of Doritos as the most interesting food container from this week. I like the colors and font they chose to use. I also really love Doritos. The bag fits the product very well. The font works well because the white stands out on the red background.

I chose to use this image for an example of type as art. I found this at my house in a pile of ads. I really liked the way this Old Navy ad looked. It looks like a poster for a band. I chose it for type as art because of the way the G forms a turkey, the L forms a guitar, and the L forms a microphone.

I chose this as an example of a rebus in type. I found it in the hallway in Sharadin. The little symbol that forms the “o” in dangerous is an example of a rebus. I like the way this person included it because it makes the point they are trying to get across very obvious.

I chose this piece that I found in the hallway in Sharadin as an example of inspirational type. I really like the message behind it. My favorite part is that you can read the word poverty right side up as well as upside down. I thought that made the poster very interesting.

 I feel that this is an example of good type gone bad.  I think the font is pretty and would be nice somewhere else.  It is very random here.  I found it in a magazine on Thursday night.  I also don’t like the gradient used.  It has a rainbow effect that I find to be too much.

I found this example of bad kerning when I was eating at McDonalds.  It was on the paper on the tray.  I think it is bad kerning because the t is too far away from the a.  E and A are close but T is too far off.
