FEEDBACKS
Week 8:
(independent learning week)Week 9:
General Feedback:Font should be digitalized, consistency of font must be maintained, avoid following the reference as reference is just for you to study.
Specific Feedback:
The font has no consistency and the stroke is too thin, other than that, it's quite an interesting font.
Week 10:
General Feedback:We need to finalize and export the font to Fontlab and proceed to our poster design for our font.
Specific Feedback:
The below part of stroke for the letter "e, y & g" must have consistency too.
REFLECTIONS
Week 8:
(independent learning week)
Week 9:
Experience:
I am exposed to a lot of font design designed by my classmates and I am really impressed. Then, Mr. Vinod showed us the ways of creating font with AI.
Observations:
A lot of research need to be done before you actually digitalized your font.
Findings:
While creating a font, a lot of minor details must be focused as all these minor details will decide whether your font's consistency and readability.
Week 10:
Experience:
My Task 3A is commented by Mr. Vinod and minor changes are needed for letter "e, y & g".
Observations:
I must pay attention to what Mr. Vinod and Encik Shamsul when they are commenting on other people's work as I can learn through their mistakes too.
Findings:
A good font doesn't have to be too decorative, as long as the consistency and readability are achieved, it will become a good font.
