ENGL307: Digital Writing

I really like how this lady expresses the importance of repetition in a drawing.

This tutorial utilizes style in a website.

This guy uses digital media to give a good little video summary of rhythm and repetition.

A cool short on the history of typography.

This is a website where you can get access to over 1,000 fonts...typography heaven! Enjoy!

This was a great tutorial of how to use typography properly.

I thought this photo was really interesting it discussed how to make a portrait into text.

I thought this was a great tutorial on how to utilize typography and the ways typography communicates to the audience.

A quality lecture from a princeton professor on abstraction in design

A cool video on emphasis by an artist on vimeo

The wiki page on typography gives you every bit of information on the subject

I thought this video did a great job of utilizing emphasis. Take a look.

This video is of someone drawing a character. He is using a certain style.

I thought this video was perfect to give an example of emphasis I didn't even think of emphasis as focal point.

This is the URL to my application supporting The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien for our second project...this is just a draft. I look forward to all of your feedback! I used Diigo to share it because for some reason this particular application builder was making it difficult to share on Wordpress, so I am making this work.

This notes page took an explanation of Roland Barthes'  a step further and explained each category in more detail and gives where each specific one comes up in the image.

After reading this weeks assignments I was still a little confused on the study of semiotics, I bookmarked this site because it gives examples as well as links to words they use to explain the definition. This site was very helpful in understanding the study of semiotics. I also made this one my favorite as semiotics was the root of our reading assignment this week.

Since I used this example in the RoD assignment this week I thought I would use it here too.

I like the definition this man gives of what abstraction is.
