Brighton BN2 0JY United KingdomDescription
Facilitated by Karen Morgan, this workshop is open to all staff and students
By drawing type participants will get to look closely at type forms away from a computer and without worrying about the written word. The workshop is structured to allow participants to focus on the letter forms (paper, drawing materials and a variety of type reference is provided). Time is limited to an hour. In that time there be a brief introduction to type, then we will look through type catalogues, select letter forms and draw them. You will be encouraged to look at the shape of the letter form but also the weight, emphasis, balance, proportion and emotional impact.
Materials will be provided, but if you have a preferred medium please do bring it along with you.
