Brief A Type and layout based investigation of Typo 2012 and its speakers with a focus on Transmedia and the future. Research and review at least four designers/ speakers from the Typo 12 International Talks to provide content to inspire/inform the BAGD students and tutors. Why? I am going to attend Typo 2012 and then research four designers as this will not only be inspirational but will also provide me a deeper knowledge of the industry. In addition this provides relevant content to explore branding across both print and digital media. Product: A set of posters and publication with key inspirational quotes Range: Different themes across the theme ‘Social’ - ethics, digital, networking, typography, practice Method of distribution: Across print and digital media

Making it more relevant to the ‘social’ theme. Good luck with the brief anyhow :) • The posters and the review of the event
