Beowolf and Burberry

I’m pretty familiar with and all settled into CSM now. In the past few weeks I’ve covered advertising, digital media and this week gone, typography with a bunch of lovely peeps.

So I get given this font >

and then told to make something that represents ze fonts personality?

cause loverboy told me it’s also the name of a movie and Beowulf’s a brave dude that likes fighting and such. So I thought fighting -> battle -> shield. and that mess on the shield? If you’re a little nerdy you’ll know what I mean in this bit; Basically if you print this font in CMYK color as it’s a font with a randomization feature (each letter is unique) each layer of color prints a different version of the same letter, so you get a lovely printed mess. So shield + CMYK + some jaggedy mess = voila! my final piece for typography last week.

ta-dah!

studying graphics and all it would seem I would’ve created this on photoshop or something? So I don’t have to lug this thing around all day? Oh no, I do things the long way, plus that only occurred to me later lol.

I’m looking forward to seeing how much I improve over the next 3 years!

For now it’s back to watching the needlessly dragged on over 2 hours show called X Factor (I’ve also begun watching the US one which is SO much better - showcasing proper talent instead of nutcases) and forget about the bitch that outbid me in the last few seconds on a beeaaautiful, beige, burberry, bargain trench that had my name all over it.

*sigh*

Anyway life’s good!
