There is a new sensation sweeping the nation! Its called Kerning! The idea of Kerning is moving and positioning letters in words so that they are visual appealing to the viewer. The origin of the word kern is from the french word carne, which means "projecting angle, quill of a pin"Kerning has been around ever since the days when letters was cast metal but back then Kerning only referred to manufacturing the sorts with the kerns. But now a days it is all done digitally. And a computer game has come out called the Kerning game where you move the inside letters of words till you think they are spaced correctly then you proceed to see if you are right and graded out of 100 points and after 10 attempts you are given an overall grade out of 100 again as seen below.

E-magine
E-Communication isn't just just about videos or making logos and websites. It is about having an opportunity to do something that you enjoy and also about doing something that can carry you throughout life. Once a year there is an award show where the best of the best in all of the comm strands gather and dress elegantly and showcase their talents. Not only does the trophy they hand out for winning look spectacular but the winner benefits from having that on their resume for colleges to see. This year competition was tough as there were many submissions that were worthy of being the winner but of course only one could. So make sure you come out next year to the festival and maybe you too can be a winner.

Saul Bass's Poster |
My poster vs Saul Bass's poster is very similar in how we both utilized the empty space to create a shape to show something that hints at the story. I chose Jango Fett because he is one of my favorite star wars characters and is first introduced in the 1977 Star Wars the empire strikes back. I also knew that Fett looks intimidating with his helmet and i knew it would be cool with just his shadow. and i tried to make the backround simple and also use the colors that i think represent the movie with the colors of the light sabers in the movie.
