Creating an Identity Style Guide
hi guys,
here's a fairly robust set of guidelines / advice for making a style guide after you have created an identity for a company. a style guide contains basic rules for the company, including how to treat the logo, which pantone colors are used, the typefaces used, and what not to do when using the logo (i.e., changing the colors, changing the typeface, changing the orientation, etc). take a look and think about attaching one of these once you've completed branding for a company.

great leave behind
100 IDS (A Business Card Poster that Turns into a Flip Book)
100 IDS is a stop-motion animation made by slicing and dicing a poster made of business cards. Designed and produced by Portuguese graphic designer Silvio Teixeira, the entire project looks like it was a ton of fun to develop and makes for an incredibly strong design interview leave behind.

introduction // class follow up
hi guys. good to meet all y'all today, even though most of the semester has already passed. here were a couple of the sites i mentioned earlier and one or two others tacked on for good measure:
http://www.losttype.com — a couple dozen quality typefaces, pay what you want.
http://www.fontsinuse.com — dissects design in the wild and reveals what typefaces were used.
http://www.typographyserved.com/ — pulls type-specific projects found on behance to highlight.
http://www.tendollarfonts.com/ — ten bucks. lots of type here that allow for experimentation.
good luck with the assignments this week. if y'all get stuck / frustrated / about to throw a fit, get at ali.r.malik (at) gmail (dot) com and i'll see if i can help out.
