Edit - Evaluation from Karl Mead

What is being communicated and how?
Edit, through the use of line and type structure, showing how a letterform from a specific typeface has been changed into another.

How well does this answer the brief?
I think the design answers the brief well, the use of recognisable way of editing something has communicated the word well and visually shows as the brief asked how the typeface was edited.

How well has the idea been visually explored?
There is evidence throughout the folder of the development of the designs each page is methodical showing a variety of versions of the chosen idea.

What Are the strengths of the revolution?
I feel the strengths of the final revolutions come from the use of hand drawn pen and pencil marks, the quality of the lines help communicate editing. Even those that are quite rough and drawn without a ruler help visually show quick editing which relates back to the word.

How could it be improved?
I think experimentation with either collage or computers may have given the final pieces a more finished fell, some of the designs looked unfinished (possibly down to the idea) however i feel more experimenting with different media may have given each design a more unique look and still work in a set, series or sequence.

General Comments...
I like the final pieces, their are a few that look more completed than others, but i really like the recognisable way of communicating the word and the use of subtle colour helps with the designs too.
