Description
We are constantly surrounded by text and images that inform, assist, persuade, and entertain us. Understanding these two fundamental building blocks of graphic design is critical to successful design practice. Consider this your starting point for a critical dive into making meaningful and conceptually-driven images, text, and the gray space between them. With an eye toward breadth and range and a bias toward making, we will explore typographic history, classification, and its roles as “language made visible” in information and visual expression. We’ll practice using a wide range of expected and unexpected analog and digital image-making tools and media, from pens and brushes to digital photo/video and all points in between.
