Type With Meaning

Your task was to take several words and use the skills that you had learnt with illustrator to bring the definitions themselves into the type. The first set of words is Hot/Cold. Dislay these words together on an illustrator document showing the contrast in the type. Then open a new illustrator document to begin a new set of words The next word is delightful, so think light and bubbly and inviting colours The next is repetition where I basically created a mirrored image of the words back to back, its works pretty well, creating a kind of art deco like design. After that I had the word greedy. I felt it would be fun to give this word some personality by making the G literally eat the rest of the letters, with an oozy background to complete the nastiness. Next is dizzy and lastly is tired, and I was in a rush so I thought I’d create a nice little scene with all the letters resting upon each other. Save these documents as a Jpeg and place them on your blog under the title Type With Meaning
