typography



What is the strongest area of your work?  Why?
The strongest area of my work is the gradient use because it is incorporated in the background and the letters + it flows and stops seamlessly. 
What area of your work can be improved on? How?
The colors of my work could be improved, I use dark and dull colors a lot, instead I should try to add more bright colors. 
What was easy about this art activity? Explain.
The easiest thing about this art activity was picking a letter.
What was difficult about this art activity? Explain.
The hardest thing was figuring out what to do with the letter.
What mediums (materials) did you use? What tools in Photoshop/Illustrator did you use?How did you use them? Be specific.
I used the paint bucket for the background. The type tool to create the letters. I used a lot of text effects for drop shadows and gradients on the letters. And I used blending mode to create the 3D text. 
How did you demonstrate the objective (the goal) in this art activity?
I made a typography poster with the letter 'A' in the correct dimensions.  
If you could do this art activity again, what would you do differently?
Change the letter and try a different composition.

    This is very cool. The gradient idea came out awesome. The one critique I would give is to leave out the white A's all together and just have the gradient letters. The white pulls the viewers eye to the midpoint and becomes distracting to the rest of the piece.
