DMA133 - Ransome Notes.

The third project in DMA133 (and the last one with Aviva) involved preparing us for our future as criminals when we'll need to make really intimidating ransom notes. Or it might have been about typography and understanding visually how to balance text.

It was definitely one of those.

The exercise involved constructing any two words of at least ten characters each out of letters ripped out of magazines. The rules to our letters were that no two consecutive letters could be the exact same size, font, or colour. Once our letters had been arranged to our liking, we had to copy the word out on tracing paper. Through the use of subsequent tracings, we had to establish a more natural visual balance between the varying styles of letters.
