Tim BurtonTim Burton is an American film director, film producer, writer and artist. He is famous for his dark, gothic, macabre and quirky-themed movies such as Beetlejuice, various Batman

titles and A Nightmare Before Christmas, amongst many more titles, Burton also illustrates and writes his own stories and poems, the illustrations he creates are very twisted and creepy,

I enjoy the twisted realities he conjures up and the eerie atmosphere he puts across to the reader.

This is an illustration of a lot of the characters Burton

has created, ever when they’re all together I can

still feel that they are from the same world.

SuperflatSuperflat is a postmodern art movement, founded by the artist Takashi Murakami, which is influenced by manga and anime. It is also the name of a 2001 art exhibition, curated by

Murakami, that toured West Hollywood. “Superflat” is used by Murakami to refer to various flattened forms in Japanese graphic art, animation, pop culture and fine arts. Often the works

explore the consumerism and sexual fetishism although it may not seem sue due to the use of a very bright colour pallet. My idea was to have very bubbly, inflated writing with a thick stroke so

that it would fit in well with the art itself.

VorticismVorticism was a short-lived modernist movement in British art and poetry of the early 20th

century. It was partly inspired by Cubism. The movement rejected the idea of nudes and landscapes and replaced them with geometry. I made my initials simple as simple as possible mostly just using lines, I feel that a perspective scew would work well if i was to create a typeface with Vorticism in

mind as inspiration.

William Morris

William Morris was an English textile designer, artist and writer associated with the Pre Raphaelite Brotherhood and English Arts and Crafts Movement. I enjoy the floral patterns

Morris, if I was to make a typeface I would try to incorporate some sort of vegitation.

Constructivism

Constructivism was an artistic and architectural philosophy that originated in Russia beginning in 1919. The work often follows a warm colour pallet, utilizing a lot of reds. My initial ideas was

to make my typeface very angular and sharp.

Pop ArtPop art is an art movement that emerged in the mid 1950s in Britain and in the late 1950s in the United States. artist amongst the movement are Roy Lichtenstein and Andy Warhol, Pop art employs aspects of mass culture, such as advertising, comic books and mundane cultural

objects. I was experimenting with negative space and shadow with my type.

Stuart DavisStuart Davis was an early American modernist painter. He was well known for his jazz-influenced,

proto pop art paintings of the 1940s and 1950s, bold, brash, and colorful.
