Week 10

In this week, I found fonts in fontspace.com and I found one  typeface that I thinks is bad and confirm to make it look better.

The typeface is Destruido (https://www.fontspace.com/destruido-font-f40314)

From my first impression, it look complicated and messy for being a futuristic typeface or a lining typeface.

Week 11

Fig 2.2 First Progression

This is my first progression. What I'm doing is make them feel consistency by letting them have the lining at the same part.

Feedback: It feels consistency but it has no hierarchy and the line is too near.

Week 12

Fig 2.3 Second Progression

These what I done so far for this typeface and I had increase the space between the line and the characters. Also, I let the words with curve having the line with 30 degrees/60 degrees based with the slicing of the own character.

Week 13

Fig 2.4 Final Typeface

Fig 2.5 Poster

For my application, I found a movie named Arrival, a 2016 sci-fi movie. Because the typeface is related to futuristic and it suits the theme of sci-fi. And fig 2.5 is the poster that I created with my typeface.

Feedback: The typeface is okay. For the poster, it is necessary to use two different typeface to create the main display. Also, the application is too less.
