Kinetic typography
I thought this was an engaging example of kinetic typography, that also utilized an interesting sound clip from the movie Fight Club.

Final Font Poster and Booklet

For this project I wanted to go with a bold approach to creating a poster and booklet for the Google font; Cantarell. I used a grid approach for both the poster and booklet and decided to put all the text on a 25 degree angle to make it a bit more interesting to look at. I decided to use bold line with varying widths to make the piece visually appealing and chose to emphasize some of the letterforms by changing the typefaces and adding strokes around the outside of certain letters. The poster and booklet each contain three colors; a variation of red, yellow, and black, as well as the white of the page. I tried to keep the design cohesive amongst the booklet and poster and overall I think the project turned out successful.
