REFLECTION

My overall experience with this module has been incredible! I absolutely loved learning about the insights and secrets of Typography, finding out why certain things work and why certain things don't. Also learning about the history and development of Typography. This was a module I personally looked forward to, since it's different from anything else I've done, from high-school, until now, and I had so much fun. 

My favorite Task that I've worked on (albeit I had so much fun with all of them), would have to be Task 2. It was a lot of effort trying to come up with something unique and creative that would fit with the text, and the serotonin I felt when I thought of one will never be matched. 

The first half of this module was definitely a bit harsh, but thank you Mr. Vinod, for making the changes that we students had brought to you. It really warms my heart seeing a lecturer care for the opinions of his students, and just care for them in general. All of your criticisms have been incredibly useful and each time you gave feedback, it's like I had an epiphany. I also really appreciate the banter between you and Dr. Charles. It alleviated a lot of the initial stress I had during the beginning of the semester. 

I saw "Advanced Typography" somewhere in my subject list at some point.... LOOKING FORWARD TO IT! SEE YOU SOON I'M GONNA COME BACK EVEN MORE OF A MENACE THAN I ALREADY AM!
