In this project i was asked to create a typeface, using the personality of another person as a starting point. I was partnered with Tristan Currie.
I initially found it quite difficult to get started on ideas because Tristan's style is pole opposite to mine. But through exploring all of the material that he gave me i was able to come up with a design that i not only enjoyed creating but am happy with the finished product.
The few technical errors i had with my typeface were quickly resolved through group crits and constant feedback from Tristan himself. Other than that i had no problems with meeting the deadline or time management, all seemed to run smoothly!
My typeface scales down quite well to the namebadge size (without drop shadow), but I do not think that it would suit going any smaller, as it is mainly a display typeface.
If i were to do it again, I'd look at it another way and pursue my original ideas further rather than abandoning them for something else.
Other than that i have thoroughly enjoyed creating this typeface and feel that the outcome was more than suitable.
