Playing with movement


Let’s play with some of my exercises in class. I just have the right to use font and text only to express the meaning of the word released in class. Those 4 words that I chose are Compression, Floating, Flying and Explosion.




The first one is Compression. I used the red one in the middle and many black ones around it. Those black ones compressed that red one. The saturation of the red is increased on the contrary to the font size.

The word ’flying’ is what I like most. I used the image of butterflies and worms to create the feeling of movement. The word ‘floating’ is formed from the image of a river. The word ‘explosion’ is created from two images: the balloon is boomed, the ground is bombed. Those images are so simple. I used the pen tool to create paths for those letters to run:D. The colors sometimes are applied from the color scheme. Do you like them?

I was attracted by these font arrangements. I'm not good at this term :D but maybe I will try one.
