REFLECTION

Experience
Participating in the typography course has given me a deeper understanding of font design and typography. From the first class, the teacher introduced me to the details of fonts and gave us examples of common fonts in our daily lives, and after that, we were able to fully understand the theories of fonts and typography in practical exercises. Creating personally designed fonts is creative and challenging!

Observations
After learning typography, I discovered that fonts can have many shapes, and different shapes of fonts give people different feelings, I often observe the street advertisements or snacks on the logo and so on, although they use different letters but each has a unique, subtle differences.

Findings
Overall, after this course, I have learnt a lot and I have acquired knowledge and skills about Adobe illustrator and Adobe photoshop ,Adobe InDesign, so that I know how to use them, I think the most meaningful thing is the knowledge I learnt throughout the module and I am very satisfied with my design and efforts because I did my best to design a design that I am satisfied with, but the most important thing is the feedback from Mr Max has helped me a lot. I think the most rewarding thing is the knowledge I have learnt throughout the module and the satisfaction I have gained from my designs and efforts as I have done my best to create a design that I am happy with, but most of all the feedback I have received from Mr. Max has been a great help to me.
