Metals typeface for Feist

Well well well... here I go again, taking on yet another freelance job! This time - it's a HUGE job. Thankfully it didnt take a long time, about a day's work. Keep in mind, it's going to look ridiculous on my resume. Having helped with the art on grammy award winning artist's Feist's new album is priceless.

Her artists have created a font out of cut paper. My job was to take the scanned in cut paper and make it into a working typeface. They also provided numbers and select punctuation's.

Below are the final characters. It took about 10 hours to complete it. I could not be more excited to have helped! What a great opportunity!!

She Came Crashing Part II


Mentioned in my last post, I made the She Came Crashing logo look not only like a gold necklace with a chain, but I also made it have some bling! I also took the gold chain necklace and did some comps with a grenade pattern background. Louis Vuitton inspired me for these images. Low gradient, low pattern but lot's of POP! It could very well be the beginning concept of their band website... hhmm. Lightbulb!

She Came Crashing Part I


Well it happened! I was in the middle of designing stuff for my Styledelphia project, and I came across a font that WORKS! Below I have the original font that I saw - and what I did with it. Amanda kept saying how she like's a clean look, but also likes abstract stuff too. I never thought that I'd be able to bring those 2 components together, but I did!








Notice in the photo below, it's just the raw font face that I found - and loved. The S & C connect so beautifully, that made me feel as if the whole thing can become one element. Therefore it became this weird abstract logo. I love it! & so do they!

I have a crazy idea to make this look like a gold necklace - perhaps add 'bling' to it. Josh, my boyfriend recently took band photo's of amanda - she had gold necklaces and bracelets, kinda having an urban feel to it. So i think that's the direction that i want to take it.

My design aesthetic is anything but urban. So this will be an interesting challenge for me. It's pushing me out of my comfort zone as a designer, but I like that. It's PUSHING me. Oh and as an added note, she just told me that her and ray enjoy things such as grenades, bombs, guns, bullets etc... They ARE very peaceful people, but simply enjoy that kinda thing. Sounds like I have my work cut out for me :)
