Studio Brief 3 - Matthew's personality

Today we got set our third brief, which was to design a typeface for a full alphabet, and 6 glyphs of our choice including but not limited to punctuation marks.
The letters should represent the personality and character of our partner, and will be manipulated from an appropriate typeface from Adobe Font folio. An A2 tracing paper poster will have all the designs on it and a name badge for my partner will also be made using the type.
My partner is Matthew Brewer, and we were given a set of questions to each answer to learn things about each other.

Matthew said that Karl Pilkington would play him in a film about his life. Karl Pilkington:

• is pessimistic
• is skeptical
• likes very much to stay in his comfort zone
• enjoys simple pleasures
• is very funny in the way he sees the world

all these characteristics of Karl Pilkington's are very similar to what I have learnt so far about Matthew. It helps to have knowledge already about Karl, as this helps me get a clearer idea of Matthew and what he likes.

Matthew has said he is 'happiest when' his grandma is making him a fry up after he is stayed at her house the night before, and he is 'unhappiest when' he is waiting for ages in a fast food restaurant and people getting served after they came in after him. These factors give me the indication that he is of simple likes and dislikes, and is quite lighthearted.
