Stage
I
For this quote by Lily Tomlin, our original concept was to
render a face through typography, shading, and color. However,
at an early stage, we saw we would either need 3-D imaging
software or foreswear sleep and food for the next 6 days and
do it by hand. Since we have no 3-D imaging software and we
prefer to sleep and eat, it was back to the drawing board.

Stage II
Far less scary-looking but equally depersonalized, this concept
illustrates the essence of Tomlin's quote by making reference
to our digital culture. OhLaLa, the bitmap typeface, gives
the feel of computer type, while the somewhat disconcerted
emoticon at the bottom reduces the human face to its most
abstract elements. Yep, it's the depersonalized 21st century
all right, but this composition isn't quite working.
