Monday, April 16th

Over the weekend, there was a ton of stuff going on! Friday was the opening for Best of Ringling, after that was a MD party and a mixer downstairs, Saturday was accepted students day, Saturday we had a visiting artist, David Lewandowski, and he was also here Sunday for a Cinema 4D workshop. With everything going on, Dorian was kind enough to tell us to no do our homework! Awesome!

So, we do our studies in class.

In class we combined our studies together by juxtaposing different textures and type from around the area.  We also started to incorporate Helvetica in the pieces to take the context of the typography out of the environment. From there we took the type, and then reintroduced it back into our textures and elements. After a good time was spent in making things, we took those things and laid them all across the floor for critique. After all it is just a point to make as much as possible, and then to just see what works and what doesn't work.

Some Critique notes:

Some where a little too much, or rather wayy to much
And likewise others were way simple!
There needs to be an in between
Take two different things and fine a dominate structure, but them next to each other and you got it! This was explained by paper folding different studies together and making them that in between we were looking for.

By next class we are to take this approach, or not, but make it work. Also, we are to add back in our elements and textures. Let's see what happens!
