A-Z of Typographers

http://www.freshbump.com/featured/special-features/a-z-of-typographers/

I found this A-Z of typographers on the internet whilst researching modern type.
The website has shown me many different ways different typographers create type from initial sketches to high resolution vector shapes. I really admire the work of Si Scott and Narani Kannan. I think they are two very inspirational typographers and I am going to look at there work in more depth in my research for AD206 - Negotiated Project.

Narani Kannan is a Graphic Designer that focuses all her work on her own typography. She completed her Bachelors Degree at the Ontario college of Art and Design. Kannans work is only just starting to be released and her career is only starting to blossom. 

Recently, Kannan has been designing a new typeface for every piece of design work she has created. She states that it takes twice the amount of time but works twice as well because of the originality. She starts every typeface she creates on paper with straight lines, corners and sharp edges. Everything quickly changes and transforms to soft, swirly, designs.

AD206 - Negotiated Project.

Ministry of Sound
Just one set for my possible outcomes for the ministry of sound brief I chose for my negotiated project.

I really like this possible out come, I think the typeface could be refined on the information to make it a little bit more legible but i think the saturday sessions typeface really works well and immediately looking at the poster you can tell that they are part of a group, for a nightclub, and aimed at students. I think the body copy at the bottom of the posters works really well when made to sit together tightly. The logo could be edited by making it softer and perhaps using the multiply effect on adobe photoshop and mixing it with the background a little bit so it gives a softer look.
