Something awesome this way comes

Every so often I come across a cool video that has nothing to do with my specialism or focus of study. I couldnt even relate it towards my Contextual Studies. However Im adoring my latest find to the point Ive ordered the book for my collection. Its called Word as Image (and yes that link will take you to its facebook site)

Its a fantastic piece of graphic work based on typography created by Ji Lee. Animation of the video below was by Bran Dougherty-Johnson. Sound by Joel Pickard.

The basis of the entire project

Challenge
: Create an image out of a word, using only the letters in the word itself.

Rule: Use only the graphic elements of the letters without adding outside parts.



Why is it I think many graphics students may find this interesting, even video students for the youtube piece... I should really send this to Enzo perhaps :p Or even my fellow classmate Sharon :p
