About the final project for: Digital Lettering with Analog Elements

Digital Lettering with Analog Elements

“Congratulations, you have reached the end of the course. I hope you now have more confidence to come up with your own ideas and create amazing typographic compositions. It's time to carry out your own course project. Let me show you an example of how I would like to see it: The phrase and the sketch Find a couple of phrases that you like and that inspire you. Once you have the necessary number of phrases, choose only one. Then he begins to make different sketches of the phrase he wants to work with.

Clean up the sketch Take your sketch to the next level. Digitize your part and clean it up so you can start working on your part.
The composition Make any necessary adjustments in Illustrator first to make your design look its best. Then work out the details in Procreate. Make sure you make a composition that you are happy with and that is legible.
The final details Take your design to Photoshop and assemble the final file. Also, add textures that make your piece unique. Finally, use some mock-ups to help you visualize how your piece could come to life.
I ask you to have fun while carrying out your project. Choose a phrase that makes you inspired, so you can ensure that you create unique pieces that reinforce the message, grab attention and are legible. If your work is not what you expected, do not give up, be patient and keep working until you achieve the result you are looking for. Keep in mind that I only showed you my way of working, but you can take what works for you and adapt it to your own processes. Please don't forget to upload your project. I will give you feedback as soon as possible, but keep in mind that it may take me a while to respond. While you wait, I invite you to see the work of the rest of your colleagues. If possible, share with them tricks, opinions and learnings. Let's take advantage of the Domestika forum to create a community. Before I say goodbye, I want to thank you for choosing this course. It has been a pleasure to show you the world that I am passionate about. See you soon!”
