Typography

I firstly had to start an exercise by choosing the fonts i wanted to use (which were hoefler text roman and helvetica) for writting my name, then tracing the letters that would form my name. below is the end result of the tracing.
After I was asked to find a way to show the differences between the various typefaces, that is how I came up with the image bellow which shows different type with the letter 'C' in a capital letter. this is just a quick idea of how i wanted to show that the 'C' are not the same has they change shape not only shapes but height as well and that is an example bellow.
Even though back in college i did learn about typography, i have to admit that my mind was not completely understanding why they were so different from each other but after this session i had time to go back and have another meeting with typography again.
