Homework – Due Wed 2/14

Finish tracing the cut out letterforms we began in class on Wednesday, Feb 7.

  • Use one sheet of tracing paper and draw a very light line in the center of the page. Use ruler so the line is straight. This will be your baseline. This page is horizontal (landscape).
  • Using 3-5 of the cut out letters, trace them to create a word, paying attention to letterspacing and kerning.
  • Label at least 5 parts of the anatomy. Refer to the Type Anatomy sheet that was distributed in class.
  • Be neat.

Since there is no class on Monday, Feb 12, now is a good time to complete the other homework assignments so you don’t get behind.
