quiet (final)

for this design, I started by typing the word "quiet" in Photoshop, with the Orator Std font. I then printed it out horizontally on a piece of 8.5" x 11" paper, before scanning it by squishing it up to fit within the scanner's width. after that, I brought the scanned image into Photoshop and stretched it to be three times its width, then isolated each part into its own 8.5" x 11" document. following this, I lined up the three documents next to each other and screen-capped them. finally, I brought that screen-cap into Photoshop and clone-stamped the letters to make it appear as though it's coming out of the frames of the document windows.


I attempted to eschew the meaning of the word "quiet" with this piece. while the font was initially very stoic and rigid, the scanner added lots of ripples, which coupled with the fact that the word is literally coming out of its frame, makes it seem anything but quiet.
