TypeSchool Chinese font design class, the first round in early spring!

Provided the first Chinese font design course in early spring! What do you need to know?

3type has held Chinese Font Design Class in the summer vacation for two consecutive years, and has received very good response. Friends always ask, when is the next class? This year we have made adjustments to TypeSchool. In addition to increasing the number of times, we are also planning to bring professional Chinese and Western, and even ethnic minority font design courses to more cities. Hurry up, at the end of this month, we will go to Hangzhou to hold the first Chinese font design class of this year! Designing fonts at the foot of the quiet Phoenix Mountain is the most pleasant!

 

Professional and comprehensive course design

 

3type’s Chinese font design course draws lessons from European and American Western font curriculum settings, and at the same time refers to the font education experience of Japan and Taiwan. Starting from local needs, after two years of practical accumulation and summary, it has developed its own complete curriculum structure. : Starting from the basics, teach you to know Chinese characters step by step; understand the culture behind Chinese characters; understand the history of font design; distinguish and analyze the conceptual differences between writing and design; master the basic structure and design techniques of Chinese characters; get started with professional font design software... 3type has prepared an exclusive TypeSchoolKit font design package for each student, full of knowledge and love for fonts.

 

In the short 5-day course, in addition to the introduction of Chinese font design knowledge and the intensive practice of hand-painted fonts, we will also teach you various basic functions of the word-making artifact Glyphs software. And each participating student must also complete the design of basic characters in the font design software before the end of the course, and then use their own fonts to design unique works. For students who have spare time, we can also teach advanced functions such as OpenType and font programming.

 

Learning some Chinese font design is not just for making fonts

 

Learn some Chinese font design, besides going to work in a font company, what else can I do? There are many answers. Recently, 3type invited Sinks in Tokyo to hold a SignPainting workshop in Shanghai. In addition to teaching, he also participated in the painting of villain locomotives. Li Zhiqian of 3type used the Letterink plug-in in the Glyphs software to quickly design the four Chinese characters that need to be drawn. From the touchpad of computer software to the ink-stained brush, learning Chinese font design, coupled with professional font design software, allows you to design cool text in minutes. Whether it is a logo, the cover of a book, the title of a poster, a tattoo, or a graffiti, learning a little knowledge of Chinese font design will immediately add points to your daily design. Even if you don’t have the opportunity to design fonts, knowing a little about fonts in your daily work, and knowing how to choose and use fonts correctly is also a manifestation of professionalism.

Industry master hand in hand

 

For the first 3type Chinese font design class in 9102, we invited an old master in the Chinese font design industry——Former director of the font design room of Shanghai Printing Technology Research Institute, Mr. Yuan Weimin . Shanghai Institute of Printing Technology is the place where Chinese font design was born, and Mr. Yuan is the witness and inheritor of Chinese font design from scratch, with more than 40 years of experience in Chinese font design. From the handwritten design manuscript in the era of metal movable type to today's digital design, Mr. Yuan keeps advancing with the times and always maintains his passion for Chinese font design. The fine handwritten manuscripts and the whole process of hand-painted characters demonstrated on site will surely make you WOW in astonishment.

From the hairy boy to today's old mage, Master Yuan's hands-on skills can be described as proficient

 

Mr. Yuan talked about font design with eloquence and emotion, dancing and dancing, which will definitely subvert your stereotype of font designers! Mr. Yuan is also a master of table tennis among font designers. If you are interested, don’t forget to discuss with him after class!

In 2017, Teacher Yuan shared font design with TypeSchool students at Shanghai Institute of Printing Technology

Big coffee lecture

 

During the course, we also specially invited the famous book designerMidi Zhang to share with you the experience of "Art Word Era" lecture. Midi is a big design collector in Hangzhou. He has a large collection of first-hand design materials. His lectures must be full of dry goods, which makes people look forward to it! In addition, we have also prepared special lectures such as "Chinese and Western font matching design", "Shanghai font design history" and other special lectures that cannot be heard elsewhere.

"Study Group" Luncheon

  

Tao Taolu, Zhang Midi, Fang Hongzhang, Yu Qiongjie... You must have heard of these well-known designers in the Hangzhou graphic design circle, and you may have seen them from afar at some events, but you want to meet them face to face communicate? These design masters are not just here to show their faces! According to the tips I got, all the students who participated in the Chinese font class in Hangzhou will also get the exclusive qualification to participate in their internal "study group"! The Design Salon of the "Study Group" has not been opened to the outside world before. Are you surprised or not?

At the 2018 study meeting, the designers present seriously discussed professional design issues, and the atmosphere was serious and lively

  

Besides, more mysterious designers will show up from time to time during our classes!

A little⚠️

 

Font design is really not an easy and labor-saving thing! According to the situation of the previous courses, we found that in the sprint period of the last few days, many students stayed up all night to do calligraphy, unable to draw out the words. Santai Puyou reminds you: There are tens of thousands of fonts, originality is the first, if you don’t pay attention at the beginning, you will become a panda in the end?

Course Summary

Day1 font design theory

Our course is only five days, so from the first day, we have entered the theoretical stage of font design. Everyone knows that designing a few characters is not the same as designing a font library, so how to design a font library? What's the rule? How are strokes constructed? On this day, everyone will find a way.

Day2 polished manuscript

With the support of theory, you can move towards your dream—design your own font. Then the first step is to draw and polish the manuscript. This is also the highlight of this course. Teacher Yuan will personally demonstrate, explain the essentials, give careful guidance, and pass on his decades of skills and "secrets" to the students without reservation.

Day3 font professional software Glyphs teaching

Still writing in AI? Outdated! Keep up with the times and learn how to use Glyphs, an artifact of character creation. The font designer Yunus once said that "everyone in the Chinese character library should make at least 6763, but you have the opportunity to be a little easier than others." On the third day, 3type will tell everyone about this "opportunity".

3type and Georg discuss the Chinese character design process

  • How to create a word list with 6763 characters?

  • How to draw high-quality font outlines?

  • There are so many Chinese characters, how do you save half the drawing time?

  • How to set the reference line of the Chinese text box and text box?

  • After the design is finished, how to export the font file that can be installed?

All of these, you will learn one by one in the course.

Day4 Midas touch

In 2017, the former teacher commented on the works of foreign students and took a group photo

When we have done a few words, we will definitely be confused and confused.

  • For example: This word is strange no matter how you look at it, but I just don’t know where the problem is.

  • Another example: too many strokes are glued together, and they are all black, what should I do?

  • Also: how to unify the center of gravity of the characters?

At this time, you need a "teacher" to give you advice, so that you suddenly see the light, because he has encountered your problem a thousand or ten thousand times. Teacher Yuan will sit down with you on this day, comment on you one-on-one, and solve your problems accurately.

Day5Glyphs advanced + work awards + lectures + dinner

2017 TypeSchool students are seriously voting for their works

The last day was stressful because there was so much to do. Students not only have to complete their own works, but also make a presentation. In addition, we will also talk about very important Glyphs advanced content, such as:

  • How to realize OpenType function?

  • How to make the radicals intelligent, without hard drawing?

  • How to change the serif shape of a whole set of characters at once?

  • How to make a font family with weight and weight?

  • How to realize the vertical setting of Chinese characters?

  • How to do color fonts?

  • How to make emoticons in the font????

In the afternoon, we will specially invite Zhang Midi to serve as a judge to comment and award for everyone again. At this point, everything is not over. Midi will also bring a special lecture on "The Era of Artistic Words". You must know that this is his bottom-line treasure. Are you excited after listening to this lecture? Have something to say? Then in the evening, 3type treats guests to a big dinner, and you can speak freely.
