response…the september issue
I have been obsessed with this movie ever since it came to Columbia a few months ago! I was so glad we watched it in class. It is hard to believe that the inside offices of Vogue are actually similar to what I remember from The Devil Wears Prada. Although it looks intimidating, it makes me that much more excited about entering the Magazine world as soon as possible! Here is the trailer.
Stepping inside the world of Anna Wintour took me to another time and place...a time and place that exists, but also one that I have never been exposed to. It gave me a sneak peek into the couture, makeup, photography, and direction of the magazine. I was amazed to see how intertwined the fashion industry and magazine industry are - at least in terms of Vogue magazine.
critique…LBB
This week, we introduced our final designs for LBB to the class. We talked about our designs, and it was fun to compare ideas and look at the functionality of the designs. Here is what I presented, with my favorite design on top.
I loved the details that many of the logos had in their design. There were some great color palates, interesting use of texture, and great use of typography. My favorites were the logos that combined a country-western color scheme with more feminine fonts or images (like the horseshoe). THe class did an awesome job and I can't wait to see which logo LLB chooses.
...you can't miss...Grammy artwork
In spirit of the recent award shows, I came across some interesting artwork that gives a creative spin on celebrity images. In each of these, the celebrity is made up almost completely of typography. These are from last year's Grammy awards. The below image of Rihanna is courtesy of this site. These images are an amazing mix of color and type, and the attention to detail is incredible.
The green font in your logo is so fun. But I like the addition of the horseshoe in your favorite logo.
