Description
I'm putting this up on DeviantART as proof that I have done the work, because I can't print the fucker. It's 8 metres long at 300dpi, all the printers in my house refuse to print it.It is for the Typography module of my National Diploma in Graphic Design.
Anyway, I hope to pass the course. This final peice is big, but, i ask you, is it quality? I also have to include all of my idea development, logged research, etc.
Comments and suggestions appreciated, although i've been given a short extention, i doubt i will include any suggestions before it is handed in, however i will take suggestions into account for future work.
EDIT
I am confident in the peice now it has got more favorites than any other peice in my gallery. I'm pleased and shocked it was well recieved. Such a contrast to my usual submissions to DA, photography.
For all those who can't see the image:
I understand DA is tempremental, and 56k is pain.

Typography is not dead.

Wow, this is brilliant
I had to do one of these for my Graphic Design course. Yours is amazing though (I wish we'd been allowed to use colour and images)

Wow. I enjoyed reading that. Very creative, and I love the subtle details with the manipulation of the text (like the blurred words as you wake up, the text that looks like the rays of sunshine being described, etc). Nice job.

Thats quite possibly the best typography I've ever seen (not to mention the longest). Damn good work!

Absolutelly loved it... I get the same feeling every morning when I got to my lame-@ss excuse for a work...
Genius typography study and display... unique, for the lack of better words (or maybe the excess of them ^~)
P.S.: Hope you passed the test (though it's kinda 4-years-late to say that

I just got done taking the ELA (english language arts) TAKS test.. It's a super big test where all you do it read & answer questions...
I love reading but my eyes hurt...
I love the parts I saw though.. It's boom boom interesting twist to typography.. Or at least for me X)

Dang. Awesome work. I really enjoyed looking at this piece, and the images formed from the text are really nice. This is really amazing work - enjoyed it from the beginning to the end. I really like how it starts out with the countdown to 7:00. And I like the thought cloud. ^^

A well deserved fav. I showed it to my Typography professor, and she thinks that she'd like to use something similar for a first year project

Great work.

This is by far the best piece of artwork I have seen today.
You've capture the journey so perfectly, everything has this strong sense of tangibility - sound, movement, temperature, feeling...
Great work!
