Task 3 : Type Design & Communication
- Research
I like thick and playful fonts. I intend to make a font that is bold, cartoony, robotic and futuristic for the inspiration.
After searching for a few minutes, I got a few references and inspirations from Pinterest.

In this task, we are supposed to know about font anatomy. During the previous lecture, Mr. Vinod's video has introduced the font anatomy, and the parts of fonts that we need to know. The font anatomy will be applied for the digitize process of our sketches. Other than that, in this exercise we have to make a dissection of letters.

- Font Deconstruction
During class, Mr. Max taught us on how to do the font deconstruction, referring from Mr. Vinod's video. And then he challenged us to do font deconstruction on letter "m", Bembo std font.
