Fall 2014 – Intro to Typography – 9 – Helvetica Reflection

Wednesday, October 1st, 2014
On Monday and Tuesday, we watched the movie Helvetica, which explores not only the history and development of the Helvetica typeface and typography in general, but also explores the dichotomy between the adherence to established principles of design and the desire to express one’s stylistic individuality and innovation. To further explore these ideas, please start a new Google Document, and follow the instructions below to answer the questions provided in the Helvetica Reflection.pdf document. You will use complete sentences and a close relative of the Helvetica typeface called Arial. You will share these answers with me using your haydenmagnet.org Google account.


Objective:

  • I can reflect on the concepts and ideas introduced in the movie Helvetica.

Vocabulary Words:

  • Typeface
  • Modernism
  • Post-Modernism
  • Rational
  • Humanistic
