Select ten sports quotes carefully from a newspaper column, or something you heard from a sports programme and visually communicate them using only the text in which they are written.
Considerations
THINK VISUALLY. Consider what the visual essence of your subject matter is (the quote) and how best to communicate this. What are the obvious responses? How can you move beyond these?
Will the quote exist in the environment, on someone’s hand or a wall? Is it handcrafted or digital?
Is colour important? Will you work with just one typeface or will you use a range? Do typefaces have to be hybrid?

Working with type as image allows you to convey more than simply words the have been written.
The quote exists in the context of the article so how can this give you visual clues as to how the text from the quote may work as image?
