Short lecture on typefaces. How does the typography put emphasis on the poster design? An addition to the visual to communicate the idea or topic clearly. Some visuals as seen earlier in my research, arent in need of typography because the picture speaks for itself. This is the aim for my poster, I would like it to portray an idea that is seen thru visual rather than text. But will also include the typography to outline the idea to the untrained eye.
To think about...
- What visuals are in my poster?
- The type/font needs to contrast effectively with my poster.
- Easy to read.
- Use of colour/contrast with the surroundings of the type.
- Bold, Italics, Lightweight etc, which will best represent my poster?
- Don't choose a specific type face because 'it looks cool'
