Type Anatomy

After my final crit on friday i got some feedback which advised me to deconstruct my A and Z and to show the difference between them like that and to choose a more specific audience. I went away from the crit and did some more research into my A and Z and came across a lot of notes about what goes into a letter form to make it and from that i started to construct an informative poster which would show the difference between an A and a Z based on what they are made from.

These 2 posters were my starting point and i played around with the information i had to try and get a set of rules to work for all 3 posters. I picked a set typeface for both the Z and the A, ones which were fundamentally different to show that they are opposites. For the image i then placed the A in guidelines and highlighted the area's it was different and then explain what each of those area's were underneath the image. These two posters were a bit to dull, i need to work on breaking up the black grey against the harsh white stock, potentailly experimenting with some off yellow stock would make the contrast less harsh. Also break away from the standard paper size and try a thinner rectangle to hold the information.
