  • (5 of 7) Welcome to the Typography Week 5 Critique
    If you are interested in the typography course, check it out here - bit.ly/Type01_yt
    How can you improve your typography designs without the help of professional instructors? We understand that the design process can be tough without guidance through the process. If you want to learn why basic typography skills matter, this critique is for you.
    In this episode, we asked students from our Typography 01 class to submit their assignments to receive critiques. Chris Do and Milka Broukhim conduct the critique live and review multiple student projects, good and bad!
    In this part 5 of 7 critique episodes, we will review the concept of grouping sections based on importance and hierarchy, using Any Weights and Point Sizes.

    Milka says "we won't be there" when you're designing your own layouts.
    However, since taking this course, whenever I'm designing.. I hear Chris and Milka actively guiding me like Jedi Master Voices in my head, as I'm Laying out my Type!! xD

    This one overwhelmed me. I felt we saw lots of "this doesn't work" but less of finished versions of "this does." (In my experience, that means this is the stuff I need to pay attention to most.)
    Once again, marvelous content. So much value. Thank you.

      @@TheFuturAcademy Right, right. Forgot for a bit this isn't a class, it's critique. Once I finish the other 3 courses I've got going on, this typography course is at the top of my wish list. Especially if there are going to be more levels. Great stuff all round.

  • @Peregrine86

    Potentially unpopular opinion - I think many of the solutions that Chris worked on before the session were less succesful than ones from previous weeks where he made tweaks in the moment. I think when he made tweaks in the moment he kept the essense and just did one trick or two to make it better. When he worked on it beforehand he tried to fix too much and the outcome was less strong afterwards. Not all, I just felt like we veered more into personal preference than arguably better designs. By the way Chris you are still 1000 times better than me, total loungechair criticism here... love you and the Futur’s work!

      @Peregrine86 4 года назад

      The Futur Academy, it may also just be that the quality of the work has improved so much that there is less of a "holy cow, that's so much better" moment when you make the tweaks. That's testement to the quality of your teaching 🙂

    Just love watching these videos purely to see all the awesome 'Swiss style' Helvetica-centric layouts and designs. I REZN8 with that style tremendously! So thanks for these videos. Also rewarding to know that as a designer, I've been employing many of the concepts and thinking you're applying to your student's work.

    A few months ago I finished Typography 01 and learned a lot.
    Will we see soon typography 02? I would say at this time, there is no online course on typography and graphic design fundamentals at this level of quality and knowledge.
    I think it would be a great opportunity for both students and The Futur to continue with what I think is the best seller course.
    I also really love to see more about graphic design history like the great videos we saw years ago about Rodchenko and Cassandre, but maybe this is already asking too much.

  • @mauriciodavida8921
    @mauriciodavida8921 4 года назад +2

    Fantastic critique! I really enjoyed it!
    I just want to make a question about the layout we're seeing at 31:00 - I like the idea of adding that element of chaos (as Milka said) that brings contrast to the organized layout. However, in the past weeks we've seen what happens when the elements of the layout don't speak to each other, aren't we having this problem here?
    Love you guys!

    • @tonybrookes4524
      @tonybrookes4524 4 года назад +2

      I think it's so it's easier to move things around more accurately and independently. It gives you more control.
      Keep the text boxes for paragraphs only and you should be good! That's what I do anyway.
