#loud type

3 Considered Concepts and Appealing Characteristics: Body Type (I could mix type, illustration, and photos. I could use analog techniques. Is different from my usual style.), Loud Typography (Would give me the opportunity to use photography. I see a lot of potential freedom. Would challenge me to make the type the focus instead of the graphic elements.), and Ransom Notes (Challenge me to work with complex compositions. Gives me the opportunity to play with texture. Would challenge me to work primarily with type.)

Chosen Concept: Loud Typography

Why: I want to challenge myself to make type the primary focus of my design. I also want to work with photography.

Key Words: Powerful, Impactful, Intense, Expressive

Software: Photoshop and Illustrator

I was very overwhelmed with the number of options I had this week. The reading break was very exciting for me so I decided to use my extra energy to my advantage and challenge myself. The entire composition is inspired by the feeling I had when I stepped on the stage for the first time in over a year and a half. I used one of my favorite photos from one of my solos that I competed with this week. I chose this photo specifically because the position I am in is a very powerful jump and I wanted my design to have a powerful impact. I chose the word "believe" because it is a very positive and important message that can be summed up in one word. I was very nervous to step on stage and it took a lot of inner strength for me to get out there and dance, but I did it! The entire composition was also loosely inspired by the Billy Elliot musical poster.
