Initial Ideas

After doing some initial research on the author and the book “Talking Turkeys”, I have created some quick sketches of some initial ideas.

I decided to focus on the author/poets heritage as he grew up in the Caribbean as it is an apparent aspect of his life and his artistry of Rasta vibes. I wanted to experiment more with typography and see what kind of organic and earthy typeface I could create, so I experimented with a few different designs and then used colour and placements to see which typefaces were the strongest. Also experimenting with the reggae style of the free flowing and relaxed vibes.

I used my Ipad Pro to create these typefaces. I will experiment and develop my outcomes even further.
