Fonts


  1. How does a font/typeface create a mood, feeling or image? Describe an occasion when you had a particular reaction to something in print, not because of the content, but because of the font?  
  2. Think of the font you most commonly use when working on your computer. Which one is it and why do you use that one?
  3. How is design an expression of the times? How does politics affect the art of design?
  4. Imagine that the post office, your local bank, or your favorite store or company, whose signage is familiar to you started using a different typeface. How would that change their image or your feeling about that business or organization?
  5. What might you take away from this film in terms of possible effects on your work or other aspects of your daily life?
  6. What changes, if any, has this film made in how you think about print and graphic design?


1. It creates a mood by if it is curvy then maybe a calm feeling. Well sometimes i see a font that look really cool on like the side of a building just because were its placed or whats around the font.
2. I think the most common to me is "Cambria (Body)" just because it the first thing you use and i dont change it unless they tells me to change it.
3. Design is an expression of times because they like to use fonts a lot so it makes sense and politics are affected because the politics use fonts
4. It would probably make me like them more :)
5.I would take away probably a little of the talking.
6. i made me look at font a little more.
