In today's lecture session, we had a brief discussion about type and how it can hold different meanings depending on its historical background. It can be used to convey a particular message on a poster/image. We also worked with our peers and brainstormed various phrases/sentences that might work with our imagery within our concepts. I was able to come up a few phrases during studio class but was still reluctant to decide on a final phrase as I wanted to do more research and consider one after my digital concepts. As independent work, I continue to finish my concepts and did some further research and brainstorm on type that may create a bigger impact when communicating the message of my poster to the audience.
I also looked at some social media type faces:

A video I found interesting regarding to my posters - Use of social media, partically Facebook is "sucking" up the user's time and it further comments how social media is killing productivity. I was able to get further ideas after watching this.
