In this fun one-day crash course, Ulrike Rausch (LiebeFonts) and Georg Seifert (Glyphs) will guide you through making fonts from two completely different angles, helping you go from zero to one hundred in just one day. You’ll gain access to the latest insider tricks and pro insights.

‍

Topics?

In this Glyphs crash course, you will learn how to make two different fonts in one day:

— A handwriting font (some insight about contextual features)

— A vector color font (to be easily used on any applications)

‍

Also, a unique chance for graphic and type designers to meet Georg Seifert, lead developer of Glyphs app.

A few days before the day of the workshop, you will be invited to Basecamp.com which will bring together participants and instructors.

‍

Who?

Limited to 20 attendees: No prior knowledge required. It’s a workshop open to graphic designers and aspiring type designers. The workshop will be conducted in English. Ulrike’s mother tongue is German, but if you ask her a question en français, she will probably understand the meaning.
