CINEMA LETTERS: QUEER TYPOGRAPHY TO TRAINING TEACHERS IN DIVERSITY AND VISUAL CULTURE

This paper presents a series of proposals to innovate in the field of teacher training from a critical perspective. We use art and design education incorporating creative aspects that range from the textual discourses of visual culture (cinema) and typography to issues of sexual diversity and queer dissidences. We promote creative experiences by introducing as a reference the study of typographies designed for films that raise LGBT issues. We review the typographical tradition of design elements related to the cinema, such as posters or main titles. We approach different questions from a multidisciplinary perspective, always thinking about teacher training and also about the educational potential of writing as an image. We bring this innovative theme to the workshop to generate greater interest, increasing the motivation of university students.
