Good Typography is Invisible

http://i50.tinypic.com/sep1qg.png

This is my first typography.. heheh :D

I think I have seen something close to this before, but this does need a lot of work.


I do like the idea of hiding a statement about hiding, but the fonts and color choice could use a lot of work. Maybe if you changed the whole concept and went with "Bad typography is everywhere," and inside of them had "good typography is invisible" to use as the filler for it. Then again, though I agree with the statement about bad typo, I do not believe that good typo is invisible, few and far between, maybe, but when you come across it, it sticks out like a pink elephant amongst hippos.

Also, try to liven this up a little, work with the colors, and fonts to give a big impact with the choice of style, and don't take that and use Impact for it. Look at some good and bad type, and maybe use the fonts they had in here, like a bad scratch font for the bad statement, and a nice clean font for the good statement.

alright! :D

thanks for the comment :)

I fell like something very similar to this was posted on this site already. I will have to look for it. But yea I agree with what was said above. Tweak the text, but keep it up.

I think this is what you guys are talking about.

I think thats the picture you guys think about

I guess this is one of those really really inspired pieces? lol

Should be careful schultz, to some's standards, this could be seen as ripping.

I would even venture to say that when you get so much inspiration from a piece, you should really link to the original artwork, so people know you're not taking credit for "the idea". That would be where the ripping perspective comes in. Based on the original piece, I guess we can say you tried, but you weren't very creative. The placement of the text is almost exactly the same, just different fonts.
