Typography is the art and practice of arranging type to make written language intelligible, readable, and appealing, when presented is known as typography. Selecting fonts, point sizes, line lengths, line spacing, and letter spacing, as well as altering the space between pairs of letters, are all part of the type arrangement process. Essentially, typography is the art of organizing letters and text in such a way that is readable, clear, and visually appealing to the reader. Typography can also be measured and good typography is judged on how effectively it enhances the meaning of the text rather than on some abstract quality scale. Your ability to create effective typography can also be measured based on how well you grasp the aims of your text. An example of typography would be viewing titles on a news paper, tv show, movie, advertisements and etc. Typography is also used sometimes to bring about subliminal messages. Some are intended to convey a sense of humor, while others are used to convey a sense of seriousness. Regardless, because of the typography shown, certain emotions and feeling are brought out from the reader.
You started off your blog with a great example of what is typography. Viewers will get a better sense of what typography entails and how its used. That week was an interesting week of a lesson that we learned. Another great way to use communication conveying through art
Explained perfectly! I love this blog post because you made a somewhat complex topic very easy to understand. Its important that we recognize typography as art in our modern society. Conveying a sense of emotion is also extremely important when it comes to Newspaper's , TV, movies, advertisements and more. Thank you for this post!
Hi! I loved how you started off your post with giving a definition. You make very good points and I completely agree. The part where you mentioned typography can either enhance or deflate your experience looking at something. I've for sure turned my head the other way looking at something at first glance because I wasn't interested. It's sad but it does happen. Keep up the good work :D!
Hi Tofura, we both wrote about typography but in different ways which was really interesting. There are many different techniques of typography, an example is Youtube and Tiktok. They have options for users to edit their videos on how they want the font and text in their videos. I like how you describe typography, keep up the good work!
Hey Tofura, I really liked your blog post and I believe it is similar to mine. I also believe that good typography can be measured by its effectiveness. There has to be something that catches your eye or makes you feel some sort of emotion when you are viewing it. I love seeing iconic fonts or styles being used to represent other things, it is a great contrast. - Jordan
