Task ( this will take 1-2 hours)

Write your name as a graffiti tag using your own urban street art lettering design Try to think about how you could show your personality, interests and style through the font, colour,

shapes and details you use. Look at the provided images to see how extra characters, patterns and other background features are added around letters to create a “piece”

Write a bullet point plan of ideas and experiment with combining the best elements of 2 or 3 existing typography styles and maybe even brainstorming ideas for a new nickname or tags for yourself

EG. I am chatty, I love sweet treats, my favourite colour is blue, I like to work out at the gym and I can be grumpy at e

Extension task

Develop your idea further by giving it a 3d element using 1 point perspective!

Super stretch challenge

Using the examples below, identify how geometric shapes and angles have been used to plan and create 3d illusions

Choose one and experiment – how was it achieved? When something “works” record with written notes – eventually you will have all the key points for a step by step.

Begin experimenting with writing your own graffiti tag in this way- use a few simple letters first.
