The objective of this project is to convey a word's meaning though the style of the letters in it. This project focuses on the use of: size, shape, color, orientation, and style.
Active
I used loud colors to give this image the feel of exitement against a dark background. I scattered the letters to make them look like they are actively moving. The different styles in which I chose to outline the letters are meant to make it appear chaotic; furthering the feel of activeness. The letters are all different sizes in order to give the picture varitey making the eye actively move around the page.
Loud
In this image I used size and color to portray the word loud. There are many layers of this word on top of one another each in a different style. This makes the letters look chaotic and loud. The word is large and slightly cut off representing the overwhelmingness of loud noises. The colors are bright to represent loud as in the aspect of loud personalities. It makes the picture look exiting. The background has a gradient that is just a white ring. It reminds me of the vibration of a speaker which is meant to represent loud noise as well.
Quiet
The word quiet is white with gray on a black background. This monotone color scheme gives a dull feel to the picture. The words are distorted to be legible but hardly, and get smaller and smaller towards the middle. This is to represent not being able to hear quiet things clearly, or that they trail off. The quiet in the center of the image is hollow with just a white outline. It looks hollow and weak, and faded.
Stable
I used ariel black as the font for this word because they are thick bold letters that look sturdy. This represents stability. The font is bright agains a neutral looking background that i used the flare tool under to make is appear if the sun was above the word. This represents the security in stability, that everything is okay. The word is in an arch which is a very stable architextural structure. It is also placed at the bottom of the image to represent support, a base that holds everything else up.
