Ron’s response to “Type and Image”

Posted on Tuesday 9 December 2008

  From the article I can see the deeper enfaces on type and image, the work involved in completing a pice which must resonate and be a gestalt. For placement is everything in a piece and when done correctly a piece is finished that has both goals stated and is something really special. This ideal is what I hope to do in this final pice as this is what the semester has built up to. The incorporation of all we learned from image, to type, color, scale, and all possible aspects to a picture and all these things must have careful consideration.  And for this final the reading has given me insight into extra viewpoints and aspects to work with. The article goes into camera angles,cropping of the image, graphic supports (like boarders, color, lines,etc), type, and such as fields to look into. For example the idea of boarders to fill my book to just add as they are intended but not take away. Or type in using a traditional form of type to go with a storybook look as apposed to a formal/neutral look as seen in brochors and maybe no as vivid as an advertisement. All this is crucial to truly make it work in accordance to the pictures and message it is to give. Even the implication at the end of motion, no the literal as i intend with the manipulation of parts but the illusion and use of to place more over to give the idea of complete movement throughout. Yet that would have to again become part of the thinking process in these next few days for completion has to come about and the bigger picture must be at the head rather than new ideas appearing possibly to late in the process for this project.
