Another day in the Typography Department

So it was in the morning, another day of practical review with Gerry. Everybody busy putting things on the wall, and then suddenly, the fire alarm goes off! Me and Eleni, just stayed waiting for it to stop, when we see Gerry going out, followed by all the others. And outside was already everybody of the department. It was an exercise. Some brought their lap-tops, some of us without coats.... It was very funny how it was all so well orchestrated. Me and Eleni, used to Portugal and Greece wouldn't move, just wishing that the alarm stopped!!






Pop-up session

As you might been aware, I've not been updating my blog as I would like. It have been busy times on the MATD. Definig our briefs and doing lot of work!
So I hope you delight yourself with some pictures of a session on Pop-up books with Michael Twyman!

Last weeks

This last two weeks have been really full of new knowledge, and lots of work.
We had our first meeting with Fiona Ross, formally in our first class of non-latin scripts.
It was very amusing, we did a little game with the scripts. As you can see in some pictures.
And I also attach here some pictures from the sessions with Michael Twyman, that showed us this amazing English posters from the nineteenth century! Full of fat faces!
Enjoy the pics also at my flickr.
