Title and Doodles (Update fro Mardi Gras)

This is the update for the Mardi Gras assignment. Once again it is going to be a long one so hang in there once more, as i ramble like a dementia patient about my update. 

       
         In my train of thought i was thinking about the font types and how they would fit within the subject on the poster. (Keep in mind that these will be done by hand to keep the organic feel to the subject at hand)

         - Poster 1/3: The Bold type. i would often think of bold type that of a strong attention grabber, such as those that were used within the modern area of typography. The same idea would be used for the Mardi Gras design. Within the type i am going to include either a clipping mask or a design in the type itself. solid colors could work but it wouldn't really tie with the subject matter (in my opinion). The bold option would also work out well with tying the color scheme of the UNM colors or New Mexico Colors.

         - Poster 2/3: The Semi-Bold type. Semi-bold type i think gives Mard Gras a more professional insight with the subject matter at hand. The more sublet curves show the event matter in a more eye-catching manner and will flow substantially based on the amount of area that the type face holds. The curves will also tell the onlookers that the event will contain fun and games based on the soft curves it will give out when color is added onto the type. A fun type i must say...

       - Poster 3/3: The Artistic Type. My chosen one out of the bunch. Though i give a word of caution to this one fro everyone. In this poster i have included two fonts/ versions. The top version on the poster is the original type on which i am going to use. The simplistic sketch version i think, gives a much more artist involved type that would tie the subject matter as well as the font together completely. Another reason why i chose this font is because of how versatile it can be with the illustration and flow. Changing the way your type can flow is another one of the crucial elements that a designer must keep track of, in case the illustration should change, then the type can quickly change as well. Now onto the bottom version; this version is more toward the symbolism that Mardi Gras is based around. For example the ox head shape on the lower case R. (if you did your research on Mardi Gras and its history...) i have involved a few items for each letter that were involved with the annual celebration.

 -Poster 4/3: Random Doodles. Not much explaining things here, just random doodles that i tried to think of and try to incorporate with the upcoming designs. if you see anything that might be of help, give a shout. Who knows? it might help in some way.

Welp, that's all i got to say about that. Critique and post your opinion.
