hey its elisa.

we talked in class today about this design, which is the climax of my music plus its going to be a cover. olga suggested that i try take out the outline and stick with one typeface. the last image is my original, and the top 3 are revisions. please check them out and let me know what you think. thanks!

Hello, this is Rebecca from Wednesday's class. My idea for Eleanor Rigby:

it is a rough sketch but I just want to see if the idea would work before I continue. The first image is my typography and the second image is what I want to go over the type. It will be hand drawn with a blue pen. Not every section of type will have a drawn person/leaf. But depending on what part of the song, the image will be big or small. Please HELP!!

thanks

Welcome 2009 typographers!

I hope you are working on your typographical part of the assignment.
My recommendation to all of the students is to choose a very neutral generic typeface and design the rhythmical structure of the words as they are sung, synchronistically with the right measures of the musical time. That is a very difficult task and the core of this very experimental assignment. That is really a transcribing of oral tradition. As soon as you layout the whole text, find an interesting and inventive way to capture the rhythm with typography, only then you can start thinking about different typefaces to use. Generic typefaces will give you more freedom of rhythm for now.
Please, don't mix two compositions (lyrics and visual music). We are going to look only on your typographical solutions.

The typographical layout is due this week.
