Type Design Workshop at TDC in NYC
This workshop will introduce you to the basic skills necessary for the wild journey into the super fun world of type design. You will learn the basics of designing and generating a typeface with Adobe Illustrator and, of course, Glyphs.
Type Design for Non-Type Designers
December 4, 2015
8:30 am - 5:00 pm
In the morning session, we will sketch a few letters, digitise them, export the font, and use it in InDesign.
In the afternoon, we will add additional letters to the font, kern them, optimize them for the screen, add diacritics, and produce the combined letters. At the end of the day, we will not have a finished font, but a respectable start.
Space for this event is extremely limited, so make sure to register asap!
