This is becoming a frequent happening. So I have changed my idea completely.. Bog standard book no more.
I saw this on yay!everyday on sunday, which has inspired me to now design envelopes, postcards and maybe stamps to put on the envelopes.
Today I completed my first 'Letter Term'. And I hope to complete at least two more tonight, as time is running out.
I SPELT LIGATURE WRONG. So will have to re=print this tomorrow. bugger.
This is one of the postcards for my collection. Its for the term "Ligature" not "Ligauture" (why didn't the computer tell me this before I printed it!). It's supposed to show how the letters are joined together to make it more legible. I still wanted to keep an element of interactivity.
For all my postcards I want to use the same fonts, and on each of them will be the definitions. The envelopes will have the name of the term on the inside, and I will design the front of the envelope which will be the same for each term. Addresses will be made to each term, ie.
Mr Ligature
Miss Resolution
Mr Ascender and Mrs Descender
and so on...
This is an idea for the terms Ascender, Descender, X-height and Baseline. This will be printed on the postcard, and each tag will be divided using a perforator, enabling the tags to be ripped apart.
I've been messing around with the composition of the tags with different shapes in different sizes, and still haven't decided which one to go for. I may change my idea completely, as I'm not sure I like how clean-cut and computer generated this looks. However, a contrast in my postcards could work quite well.
Six more to go, eight if I'm lucky. Looks like my bed time is a long way off. Why do I always leave things till the last minute ? Fuck. I need a printer.
