Week 10 Interim critique

Image
I create a video (unfinished) earlier as the specimen of the typeface. I also create a booklet for that as well. It is indicated that the background color of the cover should be black or grey. The page on the left is not necessary on a specimen.  Be aware of the consistent of the column/text. The tutor said the anatomy it is better to be about the specific typeface rather than typographic elements.

Overall, the booklet should be more about the font rather than the typeface family. Rather than giving information about the history of stencil typefaces, i should focus more on Doctrine Stencil.
