First Assignment

If _________________ were a font, what would they look like? Graphic design is about matching visuals with feelings, personalities, experiences, etc... For this assignment you will think about your classmates as if they were fonts. What would they look like and what about their personality makes you think they would look like that? In a Pages document or other available computer program write each student’s first name in the font you think they would be. Export this file as a jpg and post it to your tumblr account. Tag your post with #pekinart.

Design should never say, “Look at me.” It should always say, “Look at this.”
