zed typography exploration and animation
Typographer; animator
The purpose of this project was to show that it is the details of each letterform that reveal its character. In the first part of the exercise, the letter “Z” was drawn by hand. This drawing was then scanned and recreated as a vector drawing on the computer. In the second part of the exercise, I chose to explore variations in the links between the horizontal and diagonal strokes. In the final part of the exercise, I categorized the variations, created a logical sequence for them and subsequently animated that sequence.
