TTS Snippets

Snippet: Brand slammed himself into the folding beach chair next to me. He was crushing a handful of paper and plastic packaging. "Do I want to know?" I sighed, digging my toes into the cool night sand. Brand stuck the packaging under my nose, which did nothing but help emphasize his irritation. I pushed the hand back so I could focus. "Glow sticks?" I said. "Someone went through my entire supply," he said. "You have glow sti---?" I pointed my finger at him. "You bought these because of that bomb disposal television show we watched." "Fuck off," he said. "That is so cute. You got an idea from TV." "It's a good way to mark off the location of hidden pressure plates," he argued. "As opposed to our ususal method? Pointing at the pressure plate and telling everyone, That's how Rune is going to get us killed?" At that moment, a highly caffeinated Corbie ran past us, whooping and leaping. He had a red glowstick in each hand. Brand stared after him, shock and outrage radiating from narrowed eyes. "It's like he's giving me the finger."

Letter 1 | 3rd August, 2022

Dear Reader,

This is the record of our first day in our typography module dated 3rd August, 2022.

Handygloves

or Type Anatomy.

Earned a star for the color coding.

Font + Typefaces

A typeface is particular set of glyphs or characters whereas a font is a particular weight, size and style of a typeface. A typeface consists of a range of fonts that have similar characteristics.

For example: Helvetica would be a typeface and Helvetica Thin would be a font in that typeface.

Categorization

Serif:

serif is a small line or stroke regularly attached to the end of a larger stroke in a letter or symbol within a particular font or family of fonts.

Sans serif

Sans is French for 'without', so pretty self explanatory post that point.

Slab serif:

The serifs are super thick and block like. Also called 'Egyptians'

Slur serif:

Has thicker serifs and more curves than normal serifs.

Hairline serif:

Hairline is the thin stroke common to serif typefaces and hairline serifs have high contrasts between thick and thin strokes.

Script:

Resemble cursive or handwriting typically used for displays

Decorative:

Funky fonts, mostly never used as body text and only used for headings.

Video of Learnings

To wrap up our learnings of the day, our assignment was to find examples of typography and type anatomy right in our campus and compile them into a short video.

PS: We did our best to make a video in 45 minutes so please do not judge the music choice.

We were all nervous yet excited students waiting for an introduction to the third semester not knowing that this one hell of a module was gonna be dropped upon us. Yet we absolutely enjoyed the day.

Font regards,

Jiali Thakkar.

It’s been awhile since I’ve been to an arcade. It’s good to know my claw game skills are still in top form. #20220803 #215of365daysof2022 https://www.instagram.com/p/Cg0pfNUuA4h/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
