Challenge 26: S2x03 - School Reunion // Cybermen // Text and Font

Jan 29, 2008 02:02

It's time for Challenge 26! This week, we thought School Reunion would be a great challenge for New. The Doctor, Rose and Mickey are trying to discover the secret behind strange happenings at a school when they run into a couple of old friends - Sarah Jane Smith and K9! The Classic challenge this week is those age old nemeses of the Doctor, the Cybermen. From their first appearance in that classic episode, The Tenth Planet, facing down One, to facing down Seven in Silver Nemesis, the Cybermen constantly faced off with the Doctor in their quest to plunder the galaxy and convert anyone who got in their way. Finally, the Various challenge is text and font. It could be a quote or a name, a statement or a joke. What we really want to see is creative text and stunning fonts used creatively to accent any Whovian subject you choose!

Text and Font (Various): Your Choice

One of our cleverest tools that we use as iconists is text and font. You can cover an icon with text so that the cap hardly matters and fill it with a huge font, or you can bend the text into a pic and make the font so subtle that it's hardly noticed unless you look very carefully. Either way, text and font can be one of the most influential and fun effects we can use. So, go ahead. Use it however you like. You can take a pic and stick a quote or initials or tiny text to it. You can create a quote icon with particularly nice font. As long as it's Who related and it involves text and font, we want to see it!
