Response to the poster blog question


I never had a poster when I was little but the other day I was getting the game call of duty modern warfare 3 and I was handed a poster for the game so I guess that is my first poster. It is pretty embarrassing owning a poster for a game and I won't hang it up but it still counts. Usually a good poster is a poster of something you really like or care about. Usually good posters also have cool designs or some interesting picture on them of someone you like or something you like. Most of the time posters have some information written on them but it is not usually the focus point and posters are keepen for the pictures most of the time.

Writing Prompt

Dear Client,


I plan to make your three typefaces in the following way. Your digital font will be created using Fontsruct or Adobe photoshop. Your font will be an edit of Helvetica and will most likely be drastically changed but will still be recognizable. Your hand-written font will be drawn by me personally and then photocopied onto a computer. It will then be colored in and finished. Finally, your sculpture will be created by taking a photo of objects in real life in the shape of letters. All your fonts will be presented on 3 sample letters (uppercase and lowercase) and 3 sample numbers. Each font will be interesting and original.


Sincerely, Murphy Werley commercial art

my favorite one is my first one because I like the shapes of the negative space and the flipped number starts to look like a lowercase a.

First Blog Post






I believe graphic design is a way to state your opinion or influence other people with art or design. Some commercial art is about advertising for companies who's logo or brand is used on t shirts or billboards and other graphic design is used to put peoples opinion out in the open through art and design. I see graphic design everywhere on t shirts, ads. billboards, online and many more places. The designs that influence me are all the brands like the nike swoosh or the millions of designs on kids shirts. This is a way for companies to advertise
there product like american eagle, billa bong and many more.
