//Alphabet Soup//

Over the summer we war asked by the college to produce an alphabet which visually represented us as individuals. When looking at them as groups we discovered we all had very different alphabets, in terms of layout, style and how we all used materials. We were asked to decide on 10 similarities which our work had in our blog groups. Collectively we decided they we are good and all had different positives to them, but overall decided that Eve's work worked the best as a piece. these are the 10 similarities we came up with.

1-The majority of our alphabets were hand drawn, or at least crafted by hand first before being formatted digitally.
2-The majority used primary imagery to create the actual typefaces.
3-The majority were researched within the medium of the internet, or from magazines and photographs.
4-Everyone incorporated personal interests.
5-The majority used colour in the presentation.
6-Two of the five were created digitally, using photoshop as a main tool.
7-In several of the alphabets, a pre existing font has been used.
8-There is a uniform style, and most of our alphabets work cohesively and in sequence.
9-Everyone's alphabet linked together well as a small collective.
10-Everyone has incorporated imagery into the alphabet.
