Lyrics and Type Poster Reflection

1. Padlet, The posters that express the idea by both lettering and the background are essential for me in this project. This is because they looked fascinating to me. Eventually, my poster expressed the mood of my song with both lettering and background.

2. For the song, I chose ‘기억을 걷는 시간,’ which means ‘Time spent walking through memories’ because this is my favorite song and it is not well-known to other people so I could express my thinking about the music. Also, I had various ideas about the topics.

3. These three small posters are my detailed drafts… For the first draft, I drew red-eye because there is ‘red eye’ in my lyrics. For the second one, I focused on creative lettering. For the last one, I chose this lettering because this lettering is often used for a sad thing in Korea. Eventually, I decided on the last one for my poster and my feedback.

4. The feedback I got was that my fonts are well-describing the mood of the lyrics, but since the background was white, they said that it would be better if you added the background that expresses the mood of the songs. Therefore, I did. I tried to make sad and lonely mood background, and I am satisfied with it.

5. As you see in the top three details, I did three detailed typography before my final poster. The first typography was to write letters in a curved line. For the second typography, I added some lines on the letters. I saw the sad mood font for the last typography, and I drew them with my hand. Eventually, I chose the last one because the mood of the typography and the song were similar.

7. First of all, my song is a sad mood song. I think both lettering and background well-described the mood of my song. Specifically, I chose black, white, and gray-related colors because they are usually black and white when I see sad mood posters. Moreover, I chose this type of font for my lyric because, in Korea, a font similar to this is used in many sad mood sentences. I used type since I used the font. Also, I used tone to express that the man in this photo looks lonely.
