The book you choose should be a book with a minimum of three narrators, and each narrator will get their own typeface.<br /><br />For this project, you will use an actual book as a model for the dimensions of your jacket as well as for the dimensions of your page spreads.<br /><br />Each spread should be set with a different typeface, a typeface that reflects the character of the narrator for that particular chapter. The text type, the body of your text must be clearly legible. For the text type you should use one of the five classifications, no novelty typefaces. There is more room to experiment and play with the paragraph indications as well as the chapter headings. You should use the actual text from the book.<br /><br />Your dust jacket design should include the spine as well as the inside flaps. You have complete freedom as to what you do with the cover, such as whether or not you include any additional information about the book or author. All design should be in service to the content and style of the book, and your design should make the book attract attention on the shelf, from the front cover as well as the spine.herringhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01469618017844376389noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1660528054314211690.post-76235203331170812642011-11-10T07:44:00.000-08:002011-11-10T07:45:34.944-08:00Novels With Multiple Narrators:<a href="http://odysseybks.blogspot.com/2010/03/she-said-he-said-novels-with-multiple.html">http://odysseybks.blogspot.com/2010/03/she-said-he-said-novels-with-multiple.html</a>herringhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01469618017844376389noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1660528054314211690.post-82243977967590840642011-11-07T06:40:00.000-08:002011-11-07T06:44:12.192-08:00<span style="font-style: italic;"><br /></span>herringhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01469618017844376389noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1660528054314211690.post-56866859937474204652011-11-01T04:39:00.000-07:002011-11-01T04:41:18.916-07:00Typefaces by Classification<span style="font-size:180%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">BLACKLETTER:</span></span><br />Fraktur<br />Cloister Black<br />Goudy Text<br /><span style="font-size:180%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">OLDSTYLE:</span></span><br />Bembo<br />Caslon<br />Dante<br />Garamond<br />Janson<br />Jenson<br />Palatino<br /><span style="font-size:180%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">TRANSITIONAL:</span></span><br />Baskerville<br />Bulmer<br />Georgia<br />Joanna<br />Perpetua<br />Times Roman<br /><span style="font-size:180%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">MODERN:</span></span><br />Bell<br />Bodoni<br />Caledonia<br />Didot<br />Modern No. 20<br />Torino<br />Walbaum<br /><span style="font-size:180%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">EGYPTIAN, SLAB SERIF, or SQUARE SERIF:</span></span><br />Century<br />Clarendon<br />Lubalin Graph<br />Memphis<br />Rockwell<br />Serifa<br /><span style="font-size:180%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">SAN SERIF:</span></span><br />Akzidenz Grotesk<br />Grotesque<br />Gill Sans<br />Franklin Gothic<br />Frutiger<br />Futura<br />Helvetica<br />Meta<br />News Gothic<br />Optima<br />Syntax<br />Trade Gothic<br />Universherringhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01469618017844376389noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1660528054314211690.post-32210145613441810812011-11-01T04:24:00.000-07:002011-11-01T04:44:07.761-07:00PROJECT 4: CD Package DesignFor our next project, we will create a CD Package for a typeface from this list of typefaces by classification.<br /><br />This booklet should display a minimum of three members of the type family (roman, italic, and bold) and give background information on both the typeface designer and the typeface itself, situating the importance of the typeface and typographer historically.<br /><br />There should be a minimum of 350 words of historical information.<br /><br />You may use black, white, and two colors.<br /><br />The alphabet must be represented in upper and lowercase its entirety in roman, italic, and bold.<br /><br />There is not a size (and consequently not a page number) specification for the booklet, other than that it must hold a CD. That gives us a minimum size specification of 4.75" and a minimum number of page designs at 4<br /><br />One page must contain a letterform as part of the design.

For this project you will be re-editing your designs from project one to create a unified design theme for your publication. A minimum of one of your four designs should look completely different as you redesign your project towards the goal of a <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">unified visual identity</span>. It must be very clear which pages are <span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">symbol</span> prominent, <span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">text type</span> prominent, and <span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">display type</span> prominent. The page sizes will remain the same but your designs are now more complex as they must function in and of themselves and also as a part of a two page spread and also as part of a four page booklet. The same four pages must now relate to each other in terms of their design approach. Your designs must be variations on a theme in the same way that musical stanzas are variations on a theme set forth in the first stanza of a composition.herringhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01469618017844376389noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1660528054314211690.post-23550996226982950102011-10-04T05:23:00.000-07:002011-10-04T05:31:03.452-07:00PROJECT 2: GRIDS, Printing In GermanyDownload text, images, and grid from the following URL:<br /><a href="http://www.designingwithtype.com/5/grids.php?whatImage=10">http://www.designingwithtype.com/5/grids.php?whatImage=10</a><br /><br />Create 2 OR 3 two page spreads dealing with the subject matter presented, 2 OR 3, whatever it takes, your choice.<br />ALL TEXT MUST BE USED<br />You may decide on the number and sized of images used.<br />Stick with our classic typefaces, you may use two of your choice.<br />Design visually (not mechanically) as if these spreads were going in a magazine - this allows you to look at the entire spread as it will appear in the magazine.herringhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01469618017844376389noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1660528054314211690.post-66735428292566366422011-09-20T05:41:00.000-07:002011-09-20T05:44:20.622-07:00EARLY LETTERFORM<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; color: rgb(204, 204, 204); line-height: 20px; "><span style="font-size: 23px; "><span style="font-weight: bold; ">Project 1: Early Letterform</span></span><br />Assignment:<br />Select a letter from the Phoenician or Greek alphabet, research the letter, and write approximately 100 words.<br /><br />Create four two-color designs, each distinctively different, using black and red as shown in the examples.

Treat your work as if it is important, as if you care about it, and the viewer just might be convinced. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Translation:</span> All work must be hung straight. Side edges must be parallel to the side of the bulletin board. Top and bottom edges must be parallel to the floor. All four edges must be tacked down. There should be an inch of space around all four edges of the design. Work that does not meet the above basic criterion is work that looks as if the designer does not care about it, and therefore is work the instructor will not care to grade. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Translation: </span>fix the sloppy way your work is hanging or you will get a failing grade on the exercise.herringhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01469618017844376389noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1660528054314211690.post-34520555505400404692011-09-06T05:30:00.000-07:002011-09-06T05:43:57.147-07:00Next Set of Digital Designs...for TH 09/08<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHc2BsFn0VgWxCxkVE-FZkUHRAoAMTCndoob1QC4h2uBh7-AiaXyLiGgqUfRATOS0k7zUL4yy72AgmRR6JERc0F3ucX7LaBScrZ-F4b92OENcs_vtXIB6E0cA2EwOzGY4HzEcqVY81KEA/s1600/foregrounding-01.png"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHc2BsFn0VgWxCxkVE-FZkUHRAoAMTCndoob1QC4h2uBh7-AiaXyLiGgqUfRATOS0k7zUL4yy72AgmRR6JERc0F3ucX7LaBScrZ-F4b92OENcs_vtXIB6E0cA2EwOzGY4HzEcqVY81KEA/s200/foregrounding-01.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5649226075568064002" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"><br /><br />Foregrounding Typeface: </span><br />You will create two designs, each 6"x 6" printed on 8.5 x 11 paper on the color laser printer.<br />These designs should be trimmed to 6" x 6" and posted to the wall in the glass hallway by midnight Wednesday, September 8th.

<br />For this exercise you will create a total of 10 designs, 2 for each typeface, again each on a legal sized document.
<br />Illustrate the space between the lowercase letterforms e and a as well as the space between the lowercase letterforms r and s for each typeface, turning the negative space in between the two letters into positive space. Do not include any closed off counters, any counters inside bowls, or any counters cut off by the left or right edge of the frame, instead, depict the main letterspace, the main counterform between the two letters as a positive shape.
<br />
<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">HAND DRAWN:</span>

Pay particular attention to the negative space between the letters, this will be the space at which I will look to judge the success of your drawing. Make a total of 5 drawings with the space in between 2 letters (1 counterform) on each drawing.</span>

<br />1. For each of our classic typefaces, choose a single letterform on which to concentrate.
<br />2. Place this letterform on a 6" x 6" composition, taking note of its relationship to the negative space.
<br />3. Increase the scale of the letterform, focusing in on a specific detail, a specific characteristic of the typeface. Repeat for a total of four designs for each letterform. You will produce a total of 20 designs, 4 for each of our 5 classic typefaces.
<br />4. Post each of these to your blog, group by typeface, in either ascending or descending scale. These designs should be posted to your blog by midnight Monday, August 29th.
<br />
<br /><span style="font-size:180%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Part 2:HAND DRAWN</span></span>
<br />Choose the same letterform in the same case you used in part one to draw in each of our five classic typefaces. Draw not the entire letterform, but instead draw the same zoomed in detail for each typeface. You should make five drawings of the zoomed in details, in five different typefaces for a total of five drawings. You will create 5 drawings total.

The book you choose should be a book with a minimum of three narrators, and each narrator will get their own typeface.<br /><br />For this project, you will use an actual book as a model for the dimensions of your jacket as well as for the dimensions of your page spreads.<br /><br />Each spread should be set with a different typeface, a typeface that reflects the character of the narrator for that particular chapter. The text type, the body of your text must be clearly legible. For the text type you should use on of the five classifications, no novelty typefaces. There is more room to experiment and play with the paragraph indications as well as the chapter headings. You should use the actual text from the book.<br /><br />Your dust jacket design should include the spine as well as the inside flaps. You have complete freedom as to what you do with the cover, such as whether or not you include any additional information about the book or author. All design should be in service to the content and style of the book, and your design should make the book attract attention on the shelf, from the front cover as well as the spine.herringhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01469618017844376389noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1660528054314211690.post-67661057278530329952011-07-25T08:01:00.001-07:002011-08-01T04:16:36.313-07:00Links to Inspire...<a href="http://speckyboy.com/2011/01/06/30-beautifully-colorful-typographic-book-cover-designs/">http://speckyboy.com/2011/01/06/30-beautifully-colorful-typographic-book-cover-designs/</a><br /><br /><a href="http://bookcoverarchive.com/">http://bookcoverarchive.com/</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.1stwebdesigner.com/inspiration/beautiful-book-cover-design/">http://www.1stwebdesigner.com/inspiration/beautiful-book-cover-design/</a><br /><br /><a href="http://digitalgallery.nypl.org/nypldigital/dgkeysearchresult.cfm?word=col_id%3A157&sScope=images&sLabel=Dust%20Jackets%20from%20American%20and%20European%20Books%2C%201926%2D1947">Here is a link to a New York Public Library exhibit, "Dust Jackets from American and European books, 1926 - 1947"</a> Warning: some of these covers might be unsavory or even downright offensive.
