typography

OVERVIEW

For this project we had to choose a font with serifs, and label all the stems and tabs in the letters. We had to label the baseline, x-height, and caps height along with ten other terms in our name. First our teacher gave us an example of a diagram with many terms we could use on our own project. I couldn't find ten different serifs in my name so I had to search on my own for more terms to use. 

WHAT I LEARNED

I learned a lot of the ins and outs of adobe illustrator in our first big project. This project was less structured than the color wheel, so we were more on our own creating this diagram. I learned more keyboard shortcuts, and how to create different shapes. I think I will definitely learn more with time but this project was definitely a good start for learning how to use adobe illustrator.
