650 AM, WSM (just sing the jingle in your head) |
WHAT I DID
- Almost finished setting Music City Roots poster
- Petted Huey (photo coming later, everyone loves cat pictures, right?)
LESSONS FOR TODAY
- How to deal with large amounts of type
- What to do when not all of your type will fit in a line (pretty tricky when you're trying to justify type, or get it to line up flush from left to right perfectly)
- Try a different and/or smaller font
- Try using lowercase instead of uppercase
- Utilize catchwords (fancy "and"s and "the"s styled into one block)
- Try to shrink articles like of, for, at, etc., or set them in a different font
- Switch "and" with "&"
- Switch "at" with "@"
According to the Nashville tour guide lady that comes in every day, this poster has sold more than Elvis and Johnny Cash posters |
