For this task we had to find five different type faces and print them out in various measurements, then using these as starting points we had to cut them up and rearrange them into the same letter but slightly edited, adding different sections onto various parts of the letters until we had five newly styled letter forms.
Once we'd done this we had to draw out our five new type faces and come up with fitting names according to the style and with guidance:
-BLOCK, GOTHIC, ROMAN, SCRIPT
-SERIF, SANS SERIF, SCRIPT, BLACK LETTER
Comic block serif bold
Old black letter block bold face
Dash san serif regular
Flick serif regular
Double line roman regular
We then had to choose a type face out of the five already created and make a font family for them including:
-light/italic, regular/italic, bold/italic, ultra bold condensed.
From looking at everyones set of letters in the lessons one of the obvious differences, in terms of displaying it as a font family, was the change from light to ultra bold condensed, some peoples change was quite obvious from a smaller, thinner scale to a larger, bolder style whereas others, such as mine, had a more subtle transformation.

light/italic
