Typography Images


Typography is the art and technique of arranging words/type to make written language readable and beautiful. It is also the style and appearance of printed matter or processing data and printing from it. It can be used with images to make a lasting impact by having the image you want to expose or tell a story with easier to understand. With the words on it, it makes the image more of a story or an easier way to explain the photo if thats what your going for.

One of the biggest  challenges that I've faced in this project is one of the final steps in the second tutorial when I finished inverting the colors because the face disappeared and I started stressing out. I thought I was going to have to start it over but Mr. Sanderl helped me and that was a relief. Another challenge is the time because at one point during the teacher portrait I realized I was in the wrong layer and had to redo the image from the beginning. Plus I missed a day of school and work time.
Last of all I wasn't going to be here for the last day of school so I have to find a way to finish my self portrait typography in a day if I can or I just can't do it.

My first example is a typography portrait of Leonardo Da Vinci. He was an amazing artist (you may know some of his paintings: Mona Lisa, Last Supper) and he is very famous for is art work. Not only was he an artist but he was also a philosopher, engineer, and inventor. I picked him because I like art.
Another typography portrait that I did was one of the staff members at KMS, Julie Washington (Talia's mom). The last typography portrait example that I've done is one of myself. My favorite one that I've done has to be myself because I feel like I put harder work in that one because its me. (Yes I know its self centered but oh wells.) Oh and picture credit for my portrait picture that I used goes to Asha
