We had to type 3 words and find synonyms for those words to use. My words were COMPANION, PLATOON, and APERATURE. We then enlarged the font and filled those three words onto a single page arranged landscape. We were told to use serif and san serif fonts. When then printed and then cut the 3 pages with different templates provided to create standing sculptures.

After that was completed we laid out the three pieces onto the same paper with the three words to create unique variations and shot different angles by using a light source and changing the shadows.

Below are my iterations to my design before moving onto the next process.
​

Once I found the correct image I then cropped in slightly to remove table. The next step was to redraw the image using a lines with a pencil. We would mimic darker areas by cross hatching lines to make it look denser or lighter.

The goals were to find 3 meaningful words, work from a 2D design to a 3D design and back to a 2D design. The struggle I found was to create a sculpture that was standing to show words or parts of words.
