TypeThursdayNYC x Meet the Creatives!
October 4, 2018 @ 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm
TypeThursdayNYC x Meet the Creatives!
This is going to be a special night, complete with a live podcast!
TypeThursdayNYC is a monthly gathering of type geeks, held at Type Directors Club. We like to think of ourselves as a type superfamily: we attract local letterform lovers hailing from all disciplines and levels of expertise. Social hours bookend the centerpiece of our event, a group critique we refer to as Type Crit.
Meet the Creatives Rob Johnston is a New York-based designer and photographer, who is the Founder of Meet the Creatives – a podcast that seeks to bridge the gap between entry-level creatives and top talent from companies like Google, Facebook, Nike, VaynerMedia, Airbnb, Twitter, Huge, Pentagram & more.
Tonight, there will be a live podcast, beginning at 7:00 featuring Juan Carlos Pagan, one of TDC’s 2018 Ascenders.
What the font is Type Crit?
Briefly: It’s a critique. Of letterforms. No grades. Plenty of wine.
Verbosely: Type Crit is a group critique of up to four, in-progress projects involving letterform design and/or usage. You can get, give, or simply listen to feedback—your pick! Discussion is moderated by a TypeThursdayNYC dialogue lead—we pride ourselves on fostering a friendly forum for constructive, thoughtful advice that’ll raise the baseline on your letterform game.
