The essence of font design lies in the shape of the font, just like a work, first of all has a good composition. A good font design can not only keep the font copyright free, but also increase the fun of the font and enhance the sense of brand and identity.
Each typeface has its own unique personality temperament, which can be roughly divided into four types according to the personality characteristics.
1. Brush font
Font features: stretchable and relaxed, exaggerated and impactful.
The things left by the ancestors have a profound cultural heritage, and the brush strokes are like flowing water, and the ink is broken into pieces. It's like being in a peach forest, like on the West Lake and river, like among green mountains and flowing water.
2. Sharp, tough and heavy.
3. Literary fonts (slim, free, friendly, handwritten)
4. Cartoon fonts (cute, anime)
The following editor will organize and share with you several design ideas
1. Brush strokes change calligraphy
Step 1. First choose some brush calligraphy fonts, such as Li Xuke Brush Running Script, Yu Wei Calligraphy Running Script Simplified, Ye Genyou Brush Script Running Script Simplified, you can also choose some good-looking brush fonts, and some calligraphy children’s shoes can also be hand-painted by yourself. Write it on paper, and then process it through ps or ai, all roads lead to Rome.
Here I choose the simplified running script of Yuwei calligraphy. Each font has a separate layer, which is convenient for adjustment and editing, changing the size and layout of the font, so that the font looks less rigid and has a sense of rhythm.
Step 2. Optimize the overall feeling of the brush characters through different brush stroke materials. Because the initial font has not done too much artistic modification, the curve is still relatively blunt. Use some brush stroke vector files to process the basic shape of the brush characters above.
Step 3, adjust the details
In addition to this method, I have two other methods
1. Select the font in the brush generator, and then use the brush method just now.
2. For students who know a little calligraphy, you can choose the beauty pen to write your favorite font on the paper, and then use the brush just now to modify it to create the best effect It is also very good.
2. Rectangular character creation method
Step 1, Thin horizontally and thick vertically
Step 2, sharp corner method
All font strokes become sharp at the beginning or end, changing the details of the font, making it look sharper and more powerful.
3. Change the stroke tool, change the font stroke to rounded corners
4. Use the width tool to create magic fonts
Use the width tool in ai to adjust the thickness of strokes
To sum up, AI tools are the first choice for font design, and the most important thing is to practice more to understand the stroke composition of fonts.
