Studio Brief 3 Critique
Today I participated in a group crit and received some positive and negative feedback about my ideas. One of the first points I received was about my 'un-defiled' typeface idea. I was told that it was a bit too vague and that I need to relate it more to and object or typeface instead of just creating the shapes off my own back. I was advised to maybe take some kids toys and play with them to create the shapes from them. It had to have a specific link to a shape so I could play with building blocks, lego or even connect four.
With the Fraktur/Futura idea I was advised to make all the shapes point in the same direction or angle so there was more of a trend there. I had included some horizontal shapes there which didn't really fit at all. Maybe I could also use less shapes to make it slightly more simplified. This was my best idea however and I will further develop this one specifically to perfection. Other ideas shared around were to for instance refine the typefaces a bit further and make them a little bit cleaner and more professional.
