DAISY BUCHANAN POSTER
This project involved the exploration and portrayal of a character from a novel (in this case Daisy Buchanan from the Great Gatsby was chosen) through the use of expressive typography. Included in the project is poster of copy that the character has said about herself. Another aim of this project and its subsequent was to modernize the character as well.

ANIMATED TYPOGRAPHY
Continuing with the exploration of character through type, this project builds on the last and takes it further through the animation of type. In this project, copy that has been said about the character is used. In this case it is a quote from Nick Carraway about Daisy. The animation was created using Adobe Photoshop.
