so_you_need_type5
bender (For Bender Baruch) Twitter exploded recently with the appearance of a mural graphics that sought to provide solutions to everyday problems choice of typeface. But nobody should believe that this project belongs to a printer or a professor of typography exists some level of education. Nor was a set designer responsible for the graphic So You Need A Typeface?.
This idea belongs to the Danish student Julian Hansen, the Danish School of Media and Journalism of Copenhagen, and it's great.
Through computer graphics can establish a set of guidelines to follow when choosing a typeface. This powerful guide to choosing the right font for every situation worldly Hansen shot up after attending a course in graphic design in Krabbesholm Hojskole in 2007. There brandishing his teacher views the heavens marks as philosophical maxims, to which the student could not respond with the same passion, and that their knowledge was very limited.

After seeing the movie Helvetica in class, Hansen did not think more and decided to study the differences and similarities between Helvetica and Arial. They begin their long journey that led him to embrace the font families almost as apostles of a new religion. Today, the poster-guide So You Need A Typeface as shown outlined and font related blog boasts of serious, but nobody talked to him. And guess what Latin blog will be the first to speak with Hansen on this?
So this Wednesday, the exclusive, visually introduces you to the creative genius of Typeface, with a captive confessions. 10 questions that have no waste. He will also comment on the Comic Sans.

Exclusive: We talk to Jerod Gibson

120827_7085535_l
We are liking this minimalism in design. So, I was there through the most recent references of this kind of new art. In Visually knew why the Austrian Albert Exegian conceptual seemed a tablecloth to talk about The Sopranos. Also the Brazilian Pedro Vidotto, and conceptual version of the poster for Inglorious Bastards. Recently we present
French Ty Lettau, who spoke of their synthetic versions of such landmark albums as Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band or Dark Side Of The Moon. And last week we interviewed Mancosu Italian Federico, who told us their reasons for preferring their poster of Thriller, Michael Jackson, who directed John Landis.
Here we present the American Jerod Gibson and his powerful typographic posters, which combines film and best-known phrases from them to build a true minimalist poster con muchas letras.
1. How he came to make these typographic posters of movies?
I wanted to create an ongoing series that was different than my usual work, but at the same time do something that I know interested me and allowed me to have fun. My friends and I always tend to bring in movie quotes into conversations. I had the idea one day to actually bring these into print. I wanted to still do something nice and simple. So by using a prominent silhouette from the movie and a single typeface I was able to do this.
119657_10860803_l
2. Why did you choose these films?
All the films I picked are personal favorites. I want to keep the series fun and more of a hobby rather than work.
121070_5733318_l
3. How did you select those phrases or dialogues?
Most of them are either my favorites or favorites of friends. Sometimes I need to research exact phrases too.

4. You get us very interesting synthesis levels. The first with the background image and the second sentences. What was the hardest to achieve?
The backround image is always the toughest. I need something that can fill enough text, without being over complex. I'm working on a 'Kill Bill Vol1' right now, and that one is being a bit difficult :)
119631_7674468_l
5. What is the poster that you like and why?
My personal favorite is the 'Clerks'. I think because it is so simple, and it also sprung the name '37 Posters.'

6. How it works technically? While they are made in Illustrator and finished in Photoshop, you worked before in sketches on paper?

I do some light sketches before hand, but most of the work starts in AI and ends in PSD.
120421_3981770_l

7. How soon do one of these posters?

I usually start 2 or 3 at a time, and jump back and forth between them. I'll try to get a couple done a week.
119623_13083488_l

8. Have a poster that after completion is not like the results?

A couple times about 3/4 through the process I have not, Just Because Were not the typography and image melding well. So I'll Usually Find Another image.

(Click to enlarge)
bender (For Bender Baruch) In March last year show you how a creative mind could use a structure as tough as the Periodic Table Elements of 1869 to classify something as different as are the fonts. The creation of the Russian chemist Dmitri Ivanovich Mendeleyev (1834-1907) had served Cam Wilde American designer to build a powerful Periodic Table of Typeface. At that time, many blogs said such a creation almost name your young artist (and less reminding Mendeleev). We went and interviewed for more, exclusively for Visually Wilde, who took the trouble to tell us, step by step, how the creative process had been accompanied throughout with screen shots of what he had done. Yesterday, Sunday, leader of the study Squidspot wanted to share with us a great news for the Latin American public.
"Hey there, I Just Thought You Might Be Interested to know That I finally did a Periodic Table of Typefaces in English." The translation belongs to Rodrigo Picazo.
Taking advantage of this and as March the interview that he did Ham, Wilde was in English, today I show the table in English, along with translation of the article, then in Visually.

(The logo and the concept of TypeDonald's is a creation of The Baruch Norbi )
Before the Seventh University Conference on Information Design, Nov. 10 in Buenos Aires, The Norbi is going to Paraguay. Invited by the Catholic University of Asunción, he will be giving a workshop on computer graphics copyright , where he will try to show that the erudition that attempting to grow to be respected infographics by journalists, has served only to treat your low self-esteem, not encouraged to do real journalism and visual approach people.
As mismatch English infograf Samuel Granados, the newspaper Público, in his next column. "All it takes is a dot over visual literacy in the receiver. Dot the end we will never, if as you say, colleagues and hence there is shelter in the easy and warm you're in the info -to-fasci-cles instead of exploding formulas to see another perspective on things. "
Under the plan, UCA Design Conference 2010, The Norbi designers will be with the likes of Gui Bonsiepe German guru to talk about fonts. The title of his talk, on 7 October, will be "Eating Fonts." He will make a parallel between the use of typography and junk food.
"Many times, designers can not understand what they mean fonts, or to serve, and end up a Big Mac, mixing Sans Serif onion rings in the middle of a more serious story that needs another type of font. swallow If you want to stop junk typography, do not go to TypeDonald's.

A bit of history with a capital

Imagen 1 (For Samuel Cypress) wanted to start this post talking about the capital letters, or as in my profession are called, in upper case. Why this name? Obviously I will not explain why, so one should just think a little and you glimpse the solution quickly (but then you look at the Wiki). Why talk about the case? Because they are the beginning of everything.

Image: Samuel Cypress
Text: María Casado


Start with a little history ...
writing (and with it the typography) was born as a communication tool. With language we are able to store all the knowledge acquired through the story, is the evolutionary advantage with which we human beings. It is true that there are few who repaired on how to improve this tool. Only a few hundred geeks have spent their lives investigating this wonderful world.

begin at the beginning, after the ancient ideograms and thank Etruscan cultures as (quote 1: "the Romans, a shit next to the Etruscans!") Were created alphabetical letters, the difference is that they had a concept associated with the character, but it was completely abstract. The abstract nature, takes on meaning when used together with another to form words, which do have a meaning. The letter 'A' does not mean anything by itself, whereas the symbol 'Eagle' as ideogram, has meaning by itself. So were the Greeks and Etruscans, among others, the creators of the alphabet to the Roman civilization would use throughout his empire.

Our alphabet is a descendant of the Roman Capital was also named 'lapidary' or 'Trajan' to be used directly on stone (cita2: Known as 'capital' among mortals.) Let
a subsection. The case ... They are so big, so strong, so vulnerable to small business. Always loved by senior managers and scorned by avid readers. As had been battered even sometimes bad accent. Yes, always accentuated. That's: "No need, is a capital, need not carry tilde" makes no sense or sensitivity. The cause of this legend was a glitch in the design of the first printing presses. Did not have that space so the accents were omitted without remorse. Total ... in English, who emphasizes a word? The point is that the myth still persists. There is a group dedicated to 'report' lack of accents in the advertisements, you can find at: acentosperdidos.blogspot.com

once read: "cita3: Designing typography is writing, what the tone of voice is the spoken word. " What leads me to believe that if we start with the case must have been because in those days people did nothing to use them to bully. Gradually the letter has gone into the background and people today 'civilized' uses the usual minuscule writing. The upper case is used to highlight and give uniformity to a block of text. If the names are capitalized it because it requires special attention to them, who writes his name not capitalized?


The box with boxes

Returning to the story that I had. The Roman contribution in this regard is the exact order and consistency of writing. Like all empires, the Roman also fell, and the writing suffered great change and increased its diversity due to political instability and cultural.
Thus, the way a little later, came the tiny 'Carolingians' as a result of the dissemination of texts for the lower social classes but literate, they could write by hand.
Some time later, in the Middle Ages (cita4: We only half!) Began to multiply the existence of handwritten information with the 'tiny gothic', which used the monks, as a result of developments the 'Carolingian'.

After the trance of ancient history and taking a leap in time, not too long ago, Mr. Gutenberg released a machine that allowed large amounts of information on paper. This allowed copies of the information in the style of Taylor and led to the creation of non-small publishing industry. As a postscript, was born ten minutes ago 'Digital Screen', will be given time to grow old and pass the turkey.


Cover of the first edition of "King Lear, printer" by Vicente Blasco Ibañez.
1926 (bibliofilia.com)

The evolution of the art of typography as a tool has been clear and is currently in symbiosis with different types of leguaje and society. A movable type printing in 1883 can not be used today because the Rotary or Epson printer will not work with this technology, also someone who speaks ancient Castilian would not understand the 'Buenafuente' last good thing I'm not sure ... With this digression I want is to lead to a main idea ... The layout of the message and the font, go hand in hand down that road known as' human communication. " Today, yesterday and tomorrow ... not just go together, but they sleep together at night and are happy jumped out of bed in the morning ...

all know how important it is to transmit the message, if this is not good, direct, simple, does not reach its destination correctly. What you might not think too much is how to convey that message well. Realizing that a 'Arial' and 'Swiss' are virtually identical is difficult, especially if you're interested, but have important differences. In all this is a big black hole that absorbs all light and not let the messages come clearly into the receiver. That hole is the one that resides in the dark for most people who have not yet sent in their importance, the choice of typeface. Expressed fonts. This claim lives and parallel latent within the meaning of the text. In this talk some other time ...

How To Do A Brazilian Wax Diagram

Exclusive: Laura Varsky in the Seventh University Conference on Information Design

Imagen 10
Imagen 17 I presented it in June. The Argentinian typographer Paul Ale (One of our speakers at Fifth Conference on Information Design University) warned, with some seriously obscure it. "Never before have we seen so attached illustration to typography." Argentina is the illustrator Laura Varsky had created, along with Paul, typography Lady René.
"Drawings and letters are united and strengthened in my artwork. I said and not said. The certainty of what is transmitted and the invitation to self-interpretation. This is how it comes to date my first typeface, René Lady" Varsky adds.
This creative concept that blends the illustration with typography led us to invite Varsky to our daily from 10 November. A preview of the font in this exclusive interview we did in.
June laura varsky
1) How to give the leap from illustration to typography?
In my case I think it all started in reverse. First it was the font and then the picture.
not only for being a graphic designer but because I have taught at the University of Buenos Aires for more than 10 years of Tipografia matter. It was (and still is) a cornerstone in my work.
is why when you begin to illustrate the drawing of letters came almost instinctively. A professor of mine said
one usually draw characters like himself because the look in the mirror every day leaves a visual in your mind unforgettable. Thus, many hours and hours watching the first font made to appear through the pen were letters.
Imagen 18

2) How you define the font Lady René?
work to create a source that retained the sensitivity, warmth and spontaneity of hand drawing and at the same time, allowing organic generate text in a simple way through the possibilities of OpenType format.
From my own experience using it say that we did quite well. θ

3) How was born the font?

I was working quite doing illustrations with lettering. Ale Paul (whom I consider the best type designers today) suggested that we could develop a typeface based on the morphologies that was creating for my drawings. I found a beautiful challenge.
Imagen 17
4) The printer thinks the subsequent application, what application you thought for typography?
In my first thought is what I like to "write" to me (not literally I mean to write but to draw typographically). Stories, poems, songs. Because they propose a particular rhythm and they seek to convey emotions. That's why I chose an American children's classic song called "The Cat Came Back" to make the catalog or specimen source. In fact, in the beginning was to use "Alice in Wonderland" but just came the boom of the film and decided to go another way. But the story conveys the idea of \u200b\u200bfantasy and absolute mindedness that I find so funny and related to Lady René.
The main objective, regardless of its application is that the user feels when writing a text the same freedom I feel when drawing my letters. Have a range of possibilities as wide as possible. That typing becomes a creative act. They are given the tools necessary to give the written text digitally spirit and organic rhythm, human and imperfect.
Imagen 12
5) In some cds that you designed it you could find some typographical search. What place does typeface design? Fundamental
. Without doubt, one of the things that distinguishes a good designer is his use of typography. Because ultimately it is the only item or tool, which is almost exclusive design. Somehow ours. I consider the "how it says "is one of the biggest responsibilities of any graphic designer. And we must be very conscious of our decisions in this regard.
Imagen 16
6) Why is it called Lady René?
There is a reason that is quite personal and I feel a little ashamed to say.
But the home is fun .., thinking about the character of a story that comes alive from the pages of a book in the minds of its readers. In this case, Lady Rene, is that character .., reliving the making of designers and minds of those who read.
