Experimenting with Type as image:

 Having done a small amount of research into type as image, I decided to make an attempt at creating my own.

I selected Times as my font of choice due to it's very obvious connotations with newspapers, and I thought it'd be interesting to experiment with a serif as type with image.

I adjusted the tracking of the font so the letters in my word were all touching, as I felt that was a good start to creating type as image. the resulting figure of the tracking was at a figure of -145.

I used Photoshop's grid tool to add my own imaginary x height to my word where I then used to eraser to remove anything that wasn't in line on the cap of the capital N. 

Using the Polygonal lasso tool, I extracted certain aspects of the word (mainly the lower serifs) in an attempt to enlarge the size of some of the font and distort the image thoroughly. 

I then went on to adding an extra line of "Getting too big for their boots?" as the serifs represent shoes as they're on the feet of the letters, and as the words Newspapers is much bigger than the other type it shows a sense of arrogance and also heir achy, as it's the largest thing on the page. 

I used the blur tool on the sentence with the question to make it appear similar to the Newspapers line.
