    Design Education Talks Ep. 27 - Oded Ezer

    Oded Ezer, B.Des, Senior Lecturer, Graphic Design Department, Holon Institute of Technology 

    Typography is a central part of graphic design: creating and organising letters, words, sentences and simple and complicated texts in a given format. My professional work has many facets, and all of them, one way or another, are connected with words. 
    Consulting on Complex Typographic Design 
    Visual editorial planning and art direction for magazines, newspapers and books. These products tend to include various content and wording which require large scale thinking and meticulous typographic planning. Among the studio’s clients: Little Brown and Co., Globes financial newspaper, Maariv newspaper, Makor Rishon newspaper and Open TBE. 

    Font Design for Designers 
    Since 2000 I have been involved in the field of typeface (fonts) design and distribute my fonts independently.

    Among my best known Hebrew fonts are: Doo, Rutz, Alchemist, Meoded, Sussita, Na, Ezer Block, Frankrühliah, and many more. Among the clients who use my fonts are leading advertisement and online design companies, daily newspapers and magazines, book publishers, TV channels and many independent designers. Some of my fonts have won excellence awards from the New York Type Directors Club, the Association Typographique Internationale (ATypI), as well as the Israeli Ministry of Education Award. 

    Corporate Fonts for Companies 
    Custom made, unique fonts that reflect the company’s values are an essential tool of its entire branding, and upon which all the company’s visual and advertising material is based.
    Thus, I have created an automatic visual connection between the product, its commercial message and the company. A perfect match between the font and company’s values is a cornerstone
    in the process of building a visual concept that will be created according to specific criteria for each company, such as the nature of its products, its potential customers, the purpose of advertising, etc. Among the studio’s exclusive font clients: mSystems, Migdal insurance company, YES, Globes financial newspaper. 

    Logo and Trademarks Design 
    Since 2000, I have been involved in the field of Branding in general, with special focus on Logo Design for small and large- sized companies. Among the logos I have designed throughout the years are logos for Bank Hapoalim, Open TBE, YES, Channel 10, Channel 2, Netex, Promotheous, Magnolia, Globes financial newspaper and many more. The studio works are published in books, catalogues and design magazines all over the world. 

    Poster Design and Printed Matter 
    This comprises poster design for cultural events, companies and mainly as part of my experimental activities. Some of the posters are kept in private collections of the largest and most eminent museums in the world such as MoMA, Museum für Gestaltung, Zürich and Israel Museum. 
    Teaching Typography in Israel and Abroad 
    In 2001 I began teaching typography and magazine design to 3rd-4th year students at Shenkar College of Engineering and Design, at the newly established Graphic Design Department, as part of the founding team. 

    Later on, I taught magazine design and experimental typography to 3rd-4th year students at the WIZO Academic Center in Haifa, and for a short term, Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/thenewartschool?fan_landing=true)

    Design Education Talks Ep. 25 - Pete Bella
    Apr 6 2022


    I am a creative, an artist, a designer, and a design educator. Currently I am an Assistant Professor of Art and Graphic Design at the University of Central Arkansas (UCA), creator and host of the DESIGN DEDUX™ Podcast, and founder of Twist Creative Studio ™ and creative director with Dave Creek Media. I have earned my MFA in Design from Savannah College of Art and Design , an MS in Marketing, Communication, and Information Technology from Rochester Institute of Technology, and I have taught a variety of design curriculum ranging from branding and advertising to typography as well as packaging to graphic design history. My work advocates the application of humanistic experience and typographic form and visual communication with an ideology that design can exist and communicate in multi-dimensionalities signifying a ‘user-experience’ that is articulated, understood, sensed, and embodied. Beyond my academic career I have accrued more than twenty-five years as a professional designer with design experience encompassing freelance design, public relations, advertising, marketing, publications design, video production, and more.
