I found the font poem assignment to be more challenging than the contact sheet because of the words. It was hard for me to work solely with words, but once I got the hang of it I began to enjoy it. I used an excerpt from the poem Where the Side Walk Ends by Shel Silverstein, one of my favorite poets. I tried having different words throughout the poem stand out and have a meaning of its own, for example the typography for "grass grows" is growing. I really had fun exploring the different fonts Photoshop had to offer. If I had more time I would have experimented with colors, but I did not want to go overboard and have it be too much. I like how the black and white is simple and leaves more of an impression than it would if it were to be in color.
I used the following fonts:
- Weidemann Std
- Neuland Lt Std
- Cutout Std
- Itc Isadora Std
- Ex Ponto Pro
- Bruno JB Std
- Stencil
- Flood
- Wendy Lp Std
- Nupital Script Lt Std
- Medici Script Lt Std
- Apple Casual
- Juniper Std
- Briem Script
