REFLECTIONS

Experience: 

At first the class will likely begin with an introduction to the history of typography, exploring the evolution of letterforms and typefaces.This historical context helps us develop an appreciation for the art and craft of typography. I learn about the principles of typographic layout, including alignment, spacing, and the use of grids. Understanding these principles helps create visually appealing and readable typographic compositions. In the class of layout such as kerning, tracking, leading, and other typographic adjustments. I think we should make good use of the skills that mr Vinod taught us, although it seems to be small details, but these small details are enough to determine the success or failure of the layout.

Observations:

Typography plays a crucial role in graphic design, and the class will explore how to use type effectively in different design contexts. This may include topics like

Type Expression, Text Formatting, Type design and 

communication.

Findings:

I found that typography lessons typically involve practical exercises and projects where can apply the concepts and techniques learned. These assignments will help to develop our skills and deepen our understanding of typography in real-world contexts.
