The brief was to create and perform a song based on a designated typeface, we were given Baskerville.
We began by researching the history of the type and the creator John Baskerville, this is the song which was performed to the melody of Mr Sandman by The Chordettes.

Allegedly he took all the credit
For a typeface he didn’t develop.
