Work in Progress*

Where the ice is thinnest

Playing with phrasing, as part of the bonnie&clyde* series.

Spread:

In print, the subtle typography on the left page will be processed with spot UV. In other forms of presentation, i.e. animated gif, ideally i’d like the type transparency to change colour.

>> Vivek is currently adding his artwork to this image, the main aspects (page numbers/body text) will be added after the basic image has been created.

Collaboration

The Cast:
Sarah France as Bonnie
Vivek as Clyde

*”Bonnie is bored with ordinary techniques of type design and wants a change. She gets her chance when she meets a charming young visual designer by the name of Clyde. Clyde has dreams of a life of design that will free him from the hardships of the depression. The two fall in love and begin a typographical spree that extends from the UK to Dubai. They create small works with skill and panache, soon becoming minor celebrities known across the country. People are proud to have witnessed work by Bonnie and Clyde; to their victims, the duo is doing what nobody else has the guts to do. To the typographers, the two are evil graphic designers who deserve to be gunned down where they stand.”

UPDATE

Vivek and myself have decided to chose a type face for our names - mine being bonnie, and Vivek’s version of Clyde.
