Typography assignment #1

I was looking for a feeling of motion with this study - of this form emerging from the mists, becoming more visually clear, and rolling/bouncing across the screen from left to right. The relative roundness of the letter G helped, as well as the fact that we normally read from left to right, although I actually constructed it from right to left, adding size and dimishing opacity with each new layer. It seemed important to make sure that the last 'G' was not upright, but that a sense of visual imbalance would suggest that the form just continues to move off the screen to the right. Working with varying layers of opacity was interesting, as well as noticing the different shapes that were created when they overlapped.
