INFO GRAPHIC

THIS IS MY INFOGRAPHIC, I PUT MANY HOURS INTO IT AND IAM PROUD OF THE OUTCOME...THE ONLY THING IAM NOT TO CONFIDENT ABOUT IS THE IMAGERY, I THINK THE GAS MASK MAY BE CONFLICTING WITH THE INFORMATION, IDK MAYBE IAM JUST STRESSIN IT TOO MUCH, LET ME KNO WHAT U GUYS THINK ABOUT THAT THO......

I CHOSE A COLOR PALETTE AND I STUCK WITH, I THINK THE RED SEEMS TO STEAR AWAY FROM THE FROM THE COLOR PALETTE BUT I WAS LIMITED TO HOW MUCH IC AN USE THE RED, BUT I LOVED TEH RED TYPE ON THE GREEN "POLLUTION." MAYBE IAM BEING TOO PICKY AGAIN.....WELL THATS ALLL FOLKS SEE ON WEDNESDAY

new texturizing

new rendition

i restarted the whole thing from scratch, completely redid the grid, and i also experimented with breaking it....new type faces, still not done tho.......

more progress

rite now iam still just setting the type, i fooled around with kerning and leading, but the job still is not done...needs to be tweeked alot more.....plus i still need add more copy, but iam just having a hard time using 12 different typefaces for this project.......let me kno what you guys think, be honest and if u can give some pointers as to finding a less painful way of fixing kerning (so i dont have any rivers and ponds in my copy) in Indesign. Im not great with Indesign and it tends to become a lil fustrating when dealing with large amounts of copy.....

so hit me up wit some comments

start of the assignment

Ok guys i wanted to make a typographic version of the hammurabi code....i plan on keeping it very clean and neat, and tend to focus on making each paragraph perfect in kerning, leading, etc....i kno its gunna take forever but i want to master a perfect paragraph before i move on to the guerilla style of type (which also is a style typography i like) ......so let me kno what you think, its like 15% done....be honest and give me a crit........ the pic keeps getting cut off a lil short on the right side....

u can click the link here to see it full sized.....
