Project 4: Digital Typeface Design | 26 UPPERCASE letterforms

Journal assignment #6: The name game

Scribblenauts-

The name is from a video game but I think it fits my style of font.  It was inspired by handwritten and bubbly fonts.  Scribblenauts is built off of Ac Rounded.  I used the brush stroke to create my scribbles and then the path tool to divide the shape and stroke.  Once I had my shape I squeezed the shape to create my own.  I attended to ad more scribbles to make it more my own and for consistency.  Scibblenauts promises to give each letter its own style and shape and together become a great sketcly font.

Journal Assignment #6: UPPERCASE sketches

I think I’m going with the seconded font because it has everything I wanted it is bubbly with a sketchy feel to it.  I know my sketch might not be to clear but the letter start off of with multiple lines becoming thicker, then into a solid color.  My second choice would be the first one because it has the sketchy aspect that I was inspired to do.

Journal Assignment #4: Modified Type

This image is from: pokermix.net This logo seems to be Garamond or Goudy.   It seems to Kerning between the r,a,n and in casinos it seems to be in a,s and i.  By making the A and S makes the logo different and eye popping.

This image is from: planetperplex.com This logo seems to Arial rounded or Stone Sans not sure.   I like the extension in h, a, and k giving it wave look and the teeth in the S and circle in the eye really makes it look the a shark.

This image is from: flickr.com/google.com   It not 100% sure but some characters look like Baskville.  The curve on the ends of the h, a, l give it elegant look.
