Homework, Notes 9/8/09

your assignments this week:

1. read pp. 12-37 in thinking with type. pay special attention to the last few pages, as they will help to cement the today's lecture.

2. create a 'pixel' typeface, i.e. one made up of little squares drawn as if on a grid.
  • you may use pencil and graph paper or the computer (please print your design out)
  • make all 26 letters- all upper case, all lower case, or any combination of the two
  • make the numerals 0-9
  • each character must be maximum 16 'pixels' high
  • bonus: draw/print a word in your typeface
  • make it original!
