Today we discussed type fonts and how to use them. We talked about the different styles of fonts, these include serif (with 'tails'), sans serif (no tails) and script (similar to handwriting).
To do this I went into the window tab in photoshop and selected character which brought up a small task box where I could adjust the text according to my liking. To add the text I created a new layer and I went to the typing tool and clicked in the middle of the picture and added the type I required. Using the character window I could change the colour of the text, the size and the font. I could also adjust the spacing of the writing as demonstrated above.
We discussed how colour, composition, spacing and type font affect the image and are able to draw your attention to a poster, a magazine or similar.
I chose that particular font and colour of font as I felt it would fit in well with the image. I believe I was correct.
