In typography I learned how to be neat and organized. I also learned how to make my font's easier to read and neat. Typography means the style and appearance of a font. Typography is important because it shows the creativity of font's and it provides a smooth reading experience. The quote, "Each font has a personality and a purpose." This means that each font gives a different message the way you want to use it. An example is, Serif fonts, they give a formal tone and stability. Different font's convey different messages or meanings. The five fonts we learned were Serif, Sans Serif, Monospace, Script, and Novelty. You would use serif fonts in letters or in titles. You would use Monospace font's in manuals and resources for programming languages. Script font would mostly be used in displaying a painting. Novelty would be used in maybe comic's or scary intro's of a movie. Typeface ComparisonFor this assignment I had to use 5 fonts, Serif, Sans Serif, Monospace, Script and Novelty. Then I had to type text, using each of the fonts. I showed the difference of each of the fonts and what they look like and what they convey. Word PortraitsFor this assignment, I had to choose 10 fonts of my own and I needed to show when it's a good time to use them and a bad time to use then. During this assignment I learned which fonts are good to use and the different feelings they give off. An example, is the bloody font, it gives off a zombie scary feeling. Each font is unique and different in it's own way.
