Typography Names Activity
During this assignment we were tasked with creating stamps of our names using the different fonts. We learned quick facts about measuring types, metal types, and font sizes. We also learned about the different fonts that are online as well. We were told to create little boxes with our names and each one has a different font. This helps explore the different fonts than the ones we use on a regular basis.
- After this class period about typography, I was able to take away 3 things, including
- How to measure font types.
- Leading and the definition of this word
- The anatomy of the types of letterforms.
- We were able to do this assignment hands-on in the classroom with classmates. This helped me the most because I am a hands-on learner.
