Timeline Progress

Project Two: Time Line

Establishing order: Graphic design often relies on typo

graphy to commuicate order, information, and sytems. The goal of this project is to make things easy to read, navigate and understand. As you learned in typography one, the foundation for creating an clear informational structure is a a strong typographic hiearchy. Type size, wieght, and color are the the first steps. Graphic elements (lines, arrows, grids) and page structure are often used to aid in establishing a clear hierarchy.

Overview: Overall this project was a struggle for me to get a concept. I thought that i started off strong, but i was headed in the wrong direction. When i thought i had an idea i pulled a better one out of my butt. It was funny for me because i was trying to get my concept across through image, but im in typography class, and the best solution is TYPE. This project was very fast past, so that was also something that i had to adjust to
