typography i like

i was thinking something classical would fit well with the collage. but maybe something other fit? i don´t know, lets just try different things. and i got to make the collage aswell! why am i only using times? u tell me

coverzzz need good typo---graphy

any images of type/font suggestions?

another cover sketch

Heres another cover sketch... I need to do something more with the type I have / am using. Customize some system fonts. At the moment I have a very bland group of standard type faces, any ideas for type??

a quik sketch for a cover

a quick first idea :) i took this picture and it came out like this...the type is conservative but i thought balanced the image.

what do you think?

i'm working on some more ... sounds good about the collage!!


p.s. -- we haven't settled on a title, right?
lets talk about that too. i'm open to lots of ideas for it. i just used u tell me here :)

hei nick,
this look great! i´ll start on a collage, with some bright colors, but not to bright. Maybe we should have a photographs with some nice typo on the cover of the book? think it will look nice to the collage.

i´ll post some collages real soon!

two print versions

I printed both of the prints...they're the size of the book 7 x 10 inches, printed on a very heavy smooth uncoated paper. This photo isnt so good, but they both came out really nicely! If you think either should be bigger, I can re-print them. I'm working on a prototype package to show you.

p.s. this image is reversed for some reason...the prints are both the other way around in real life.

printed package to hold the book + prints

so i was thinking about printing a multi-colored heavy paper pouch/sleeve to hold the book and prints. i thought if you made a paper collage similar to the one above, i could print those colored shapes, then cut out, fold and glue it to make a package...sorry the image above isnt very clear.

ill post a more colorful and clearer version later tonight or tomorrow. let me know what you think, i think it could be a rad way of holding all the objects :)

i think they should be smaller too.
we could make a pack with the book and the poster in it,
that could be a bigger, so the posters fit.
but then they can´t be 2 big,
soooooo.......
u tell me!

and maybe a print with 2 of your photographs?

i agree :)

the totem should be smaller i feel but the other may need to be folded, which i have mixed feelings about...

any ideas about how to incorporate them into the book?

i think we should begin to arrange the book into a final layout, i'd like to print it soon.

:)

maybe one or both posters should come with the book?
yeeezzzzz

???

maybe? in combination with something else?

okay, yeah if its too hard to find a hi-res version its okay, i just like the colors in that one a lot.

yeah, as for the posters i was kind of holding on those until the book, but i can print them any time if you like...

i was thinking of perhaps printing the totem one smaller like the size of the book maybe??
and on very heavy paper, almost like a thick card.

the other one was going to be blue, right? i need to find a nice sheet of paper for it, what do you think? i thought maybe an off-white paper that was soft feeling.

lemme know your thoughts on both of them, i can print them this weekend if we decide on those details.

:)

the only thing is that i don´t have it in hi-res anymore.
it got lost somehow. but i will try to find it, and if not,
then i have a small collection of other microscopic pixz.

btw,
how is the posters coming along?

lookin good

maybe if we keep using more found images we could incorporate this one too...maybe on like the back cover or somehow

i liked the bottom one,
lets include it!

sweet!

i like this one below!!

here are two drawings i did thinking about skinny dippers +nudists...they came out more cartoony than i wanted haha. i dont think they should go in the book or anything, but thought i'd share :)

jepsi pepsi,
i´ll ask!

cool

yeah!! :) we better ask for permission.. i didnt know that it was from anything or anyone living or creating artwork in the present.


i like it in its plain form..lets use it that way if its ok with the artist.
