Typography Zine

Anything to do about typography. What a narrow yet ever expansive and overwhelming large selection to choose my topic from. One thing was for sure, I was not going to do a zine on serif vs san serif. I wanted to choose a topic I would actually be interested in, and one that would also be fun to research about. Now like we often do, I drew inspiration from what was going on around me. Particularly I just started a new game called CONTROL from Remedy Entertainment, the game itself is fantastic, 10/10 would recommend it, but the aspect that got me thinking of my theme was the titles. See whenever you enter a new area, a massive big block of white text flashes up on the screen announcing it. This really brings a sense of awe and foreboding every time it happens, and this got me thinking about how TYPE/FONT portrays mood in visual storytelling, whether that be packaging or video games. Now, this was a theme I could get behind.
