Oh, just a little self promo piece, surprisingly enough :-)

Been thinking about Christmas send-outs and other marketing pieces. Considering this for a direct mailer or tabloid-size poster. We'll see!

I am not a big fan of black as a color for the body copy.

Franco,

You just proved the point of the poster.

It is obvious they are not designers because a good designer would never set the copy at that size and angle, thereby decreasing the legibility of something they wish to be read.

uberryan said...

aww.

Its too bad you completely missed the typographic elements of hierarchy and composition. By only thinking one-dimensionally about the message, you overlooked the whole idea of 'design'.

Type at an angle doesn't mean it was poorly designed for legibility. It means it's purpose is more than just legibility.

Hope they're covering that in your classes...

A little too close to home perhaps?
