Portrait in Type by Juan Diaz


Portrait in Type By Juan Diaz 






     For the Portrait in Type design I decide to make the type portrait out of Chris Hemsworth. To complete this assignment I had to get a portrait of a human face and use it as a model. I then had to recreate it with the use of letters and type. I also had to use only one font. That font being Source Sans Variable font created by Paul D. Hunt. As for the design specifically the creation of the suit I used the letter V.I then add another V and reflected the V vertically and combine them together to create a rhombus shape design. Then I used the the rhombus design to create the outline of the suit. I could have added more design to the suit to not make look basic or simple but I decide to stick with the original photograph when make the letter type design. As for the face which includes the ears, eyes, eyebrows, mouth and the nose I mostly used parenthesis for the outline of the face but also used lowercase L, J and C for the Face. C was used for the eye balls while J and L were part of the creation of the outline. Finally the hair I used M and N. M was used for the beard and N for the hair itself. For the hair I also used different sizes for N and M.
