Typography
- Text isn’t just about communication, it’s also part of the visuals.
- Text sets a mood/tone.
- Old type fonts have a diagonal stress and serifs.
- Fonts can turn into branding.
- Son serif fonts are best for readability and small text.
- Old type fonts connote gothic and son serif fonts connote futuristic.
- Leading = line spacing, it gives a sense of airiness.
- Slab serif have thick serifs, they are a statement font.
- Decretive fonts can be harder to read, limit them to headlines. They can be used as a focal point.
- Subset script font = curvy/curly. Looks like a wedding invitation font.
- Modern= thin serifs and stress lines are vertical.
- Capital letters are harder to read.
- Kinetic typography is typography that moves.
Mise en scene and colour should also be considered as graphics.
