Beautiful Ascenders & Descenders...woah!



Last semester in my mosaics 1 class we read the book A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini. I don't think that there was a movie to go with the book, so we watched the a movie to his other book instead. The first book of Hosseini was cis called Kite Runner. It was suggested to us that we should read it after we had watched the movie, but who does such things. I was pretty skeptical of the movie at first and just planned on drawing in the dark, when the intro came began to play... http://vimeo.com/3202924 ... at the time, I was in awe at the introductory credits that I saw. The washes of color along with the extreme ascenders and descenders made my evening.

After nostalgic thoughts left my head on that subject, I decided to look for more type based videos and found one by a band that I was just listening to o keep was http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d3ak1zXcqik&NR=1
