Semester Review

Before I came into graphic design I knew a lot about computers but nothing about photoshop and illustrator. We have learned things from work ethics to how to photoshop yourself into a picture. Next semester I hope to learn more and to improve with the things I learned this semester.

Review Week 17

I learned that the 2 main types of serifs are called Andante and Abrupt. In them are many different categories. I also learned the stone carvers started using serifs, and they are traced back to Rome.

Review Week 16

Of the seven classifications, which classification(s) would best work as body type? Why?
Blackletter because it resembles calligraphy

Identify the lowercase characters that have ascenders?
b, d, and h

Identify the lowercase characters that have descenders?
p and q

Classify the following typefaces and briefly explain why you believe it should be classified that way:

Serif: It has serifsScript: It was used formally
Tecrative: specific purpose
San Serif: there are no serifsSlab serif: It is thick Roman: It is very traditional looking with serifs
