I experimented with font design for the first time in my Variable Fonts class. Below are a few of my pixel explorations created in Glyphs 3.
A not very practical font using pastries as characters with a variable axis that transforms each pixel into a heart.
A pixel glyph that rotates all pixels while shifting a few of them to change the character's facial expression.
Seeing RISO prints at creator markets as well as making them brings me an indescribable amount of joy!
A test print exploring the RISO printer, featuring tints, overprinting, knockouts, line weights, a bitmap image, and excerpts from Michelle Zauner’s Crying in H-Mart.
I hand-tore these shapes on paper, then scanned, vectorized, and reassembled them digitally.
Using photos and my own hand-drawn type, I separated each photo’s CMYK color channel and reassigned them new RISO colors. After printing, I then folded and cut a single sheet of paper to create an 8-page zine.
As a designer for Hack@Brown, I modeled a rocket animation, Earth, and stars for last year's Outer SpaceVisit last year's website! theme. This year, with the ArcadeVisit this year's new website! theme, we're taking a new direction by creating pixel assets.
Some following the tutorials precisely, others incorporating my own elements.
