In the class I really learned the importance of visual hierarchy and what it is to be able to manipulate a reader around a page. I'm more type conscious in everyday and it's kind of driving me crazy.
Today I went to see my friends thesis presentation and the girl after her had a powerpoint and the type was some oddly indented light stroke of some serif typeface. She even used italics at times to differentiate the quotes of certain speakers, I wanted to throw up. See? It's driving me crazy, I was nauseous her entire presentation.
I really enjoyed the class and even though it was stressful at times, I would still recommend it to a friend. Sherri Taylor (and yes I do find it necessary to say her first and last name whenever I talk about her) is a great professor. At times she seemed cold but she really knows her stuff and sometimes the truth is what you need to hear to get better at what you do.
