SUMMARY:David Berlow: Beyond the Quest for the Perfect Uppercase Partial Differential
DESCRIPTION:This free event\, courtesy of Google\, will be streamed live from Google HQ in New York City on the TDC YouTube Channel: TDC YouTube \nThe last 30 years has seen a great growth in generalized glyphs and styles. David Berlow’s talk will show what happens to and for typography when we start to get more specific about the fonts\, and thus the glyphs we design\, by having more generalized fonts. The first part talks about glyphs and illustrates how different scripts form ideas\, words\, and texts. Next\, David will discuss how this effects the design of glyphs over a size range and then how this effects the design of styles that can be specified to work together in web and print environments. He will then demonstrate and describe inter-script\, inter-class and inter-style typography\, and conclude with a question-and-answer session. \nDavid Berlow entered the type industry in 1978 as a letter designer for Mergenthaler. He joined the newly formed Bitstream in 1982. Berlow left Bitstream in 1989 to found The Font Bureau with Roger Black. In 2008\, Berlow launched Webtype with Petr van Blokland and others. In 2016\, with Font Bureau and other foundries\, he created Type Network. \nRead more about David Berlow\, 2014 TDC Medal recipient here. \nDavid Berlow \nType Network: Website  \nFollow David Berlow on Twitter: @dberlow

SUMMARY:Zapf Centennial Symposium at The Grolier Club
DESCRIPTION:Type Directors Club is proud to be a co-sponsor of the Zapf Centennial Symposium at The Grolier Club in New York City on Wednesday\, March 20\, 2019\, and everyone is invited to attend. This special event has been organized by The Grolier Committee on Modern Fine Printing. \nThe symposium speakers include: \n• Dr. Robert Bringhurst\, a Candian known for his work as a linguist\, cultural historian\, typographer and author of The Elements of Typographic Style \n• David Pankow\, Curator Emeritus\, The Melbert B. Cary\, Jr. Graphic Arts Collection\, Rochester Institute of Technology \n• Ferdinand Ulrich\, typographer\, writer and educator\, and type designer\, who is a doctoral student at the University of Reading\, United Kingdom \n• Julian Waters\, a former student of Hermann Zapf\, who works as a lettering designer\, international teacher\, and lecturer \nThe seminar is free and open to the public. If you are interested in attending the seminar\, please RSVP to Maev Brennan\, mbrennan@grolierclub.org\, (212) 838-6690 \nThis symposium is being held in conjunction with Alphabet Magic: A Centennial Exhibition of the Work of Hermann & Gudrun Zapf\, on view at the Grolier Club\, February 20–April 2. 2019. \nAlphabet Magic chronicles the extraordinary artistic achievements of Gudrun and Hermann Zapf with the most comprehensive exhibition of their work to date.  Zapf’s typefaces Palatino\, Optima\, and Zapfino (to name a few) are a part of our everyday lives in the United States and Europe\, as well as around the world.  He was also at the forefront of type technology.  Zapf’s Marconi alphabet design was the first typeface ever created specifically for digital typography.  Gudrun Zapf von Hesse secured her own design legacy through typefaces such as Diotima\, Carmina\, and Shakespeare Roman. \n \nIncluded in the exhibition are rare specimens of their typefaces\, landmark works using their typefaces\, original calligraphic works of art\, and examples of fine bookbinding.  In addition to completed works\, ephemeral process work for some of Gudrun and Hermann Zapf’s most important typefaces and publications offers a behind-the-scenes look at the masters at work.  Of special interest are sketches\, layouts\, and proofs for Hermann Zapf’s groundbreaking Feder und Stichel (1950)\, Manuale Typographicum (1954\, 1968)\, and Orbis Typographicus (1990).  As Robert Bringhurst has written\, Hermann Zapf has been “widely recognized as one of the most poetic of type designers\, or\, to put it another way\, as the author of some of the loveliest printing type ever made.” \nAlthough Gudrun and Hermann Zapf are perhaps best known for their type design\, over the course of their long careers they engaged with nearly every aspect of the book arts.  Hermann considered himself a book designer at heart\, Gudrun is a noted bookbinder\, and both were master calligraphers. \nCo-sponsors: American Printing History Association-New York Chapter\, Center for Book Arts\, Society of Scribes\, Type Directors Club\, Typophiles\, and the Cary Graphic Arts Collection\, Rochester Institute of Technology

SUMMARY:TDC Movie Night in LA: A Night Highlighting Typography in the Film Industry
DESCRIPTION:The title of a movie is the first connection a viewer has with a film. From the moment a friend asks “Did you see that movie?” its title is the element with which your brain identifies the experience. But the look of that title its often relegated to a second plane. We believe that good typography makes a huge difference and it’s a factor in determining how well a film will be remembered. Typography has the power of merging a series of character shapes into the fabric of a movie\, so strongly that anything written on the style of that movie title\, immediately belongs to that universe. \nMovie Night\, hosted by Ana Gómez Bernaus\, will feature three incredible\, award winning movie poster and main title designers: Lisa Bolan\, Manija Emran\, and Tomasz Opasinski. Through their stories you’ll learn how typography can reflect the voice of the film\, and amplify the meaning of the words themselves. \nLisa Bolan is a creative director\, illustrator\, and title designer based in Los Angeles. \nOriginally from New York\, Lisa attended the Rhode Island School of Design earning degrees in both illustration and graphic design. After RISD she relocated to Los Angeles and began her career designing for film\, television\, game marketing\, music packaging\, and multimedia. \nLisa began working at Prologue Films in 2007. At Prologue\, she designed over 30 film and television titles including Beauty & The Beast\, Queen Sugar\, Of Kings and Prophets\, The Killing Fields\, The Fifth Estate\, Zoo\, Sleepy Hollow\, The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn — Part One & Part Two\, Arthur\, The Apparition\, ESPN 30 for 30\, and The Oscars. She has also created VFX and time-lapse sequences for films such as The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn — Part One & Part Two\, as well as illustrations and designs for title sequences including Tropic Thunder\, Sherlock Holmes\, Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows\, Iron Man 3\, The Secret Life of Walter Mitty\, Black Mass\, American Horror Story Murder House\, Hotel and Suburbicon. \nSince becoming a Creative Director at Elastic in 2017\, she’s created titles for The Alienist\, Altered Carbon\, Pink Collar Crimes\, Yellowstone and C.B. Strike titles. Her work on The Alienist and Altered Carbon garnered two Emmy nominations for Outstanding Main Title Design. \nManija Emran is an Afghan graphic designer based in Los Angeles. With a love of the handmade\, an eye for detail and an extensive typographic background\, Manija studied in Montreal before working with celebrated designers in London\, Paris\, NYC and Los Angeles. She now works at her own company Me & the Bootmaker. Her work spans all forms of design: logo\, book and packaging design\, signage and poster design\, typography\, title sequence and motion graphic design. \nD&AD\, One Show\, SXSW and TDC Award winning motion design has seen her design for Oscar winning films alongside the Oscar ceremony itself. The designs stem from a meticulous eye for detail and a very steady hand producing hand made title sequences for Rango\, Robin Hood\, London Boulevard\, Bad Teacher\, The Help\, Fright Night\, Snow White and The Huntsman\, Manhunt\, We are the Giant\, The Huntsman: Winter’s War\, Franca: Chaos and Creation\, Homemade: Hidden Wounds\, Let It Fall: Los Angeles 1982–1992 and Britannia amongst others. Listed as one of the Top Ten Women of Title Design by the notable website Art of the Title. \nTomasz Opasinski \nEntertainment Advertising Creative Director\, author and independent consultant in over 560 campaigns for Hollywood Entertainment Advertising Agencies and Movie Studios. Participant\, winner and juror of numerous national and international competitions. Currently at Netflix as Creative Lead.

SUMMARY:Brooklyn Lettering Walk with Paul Shaw
DESCRIPTION:TDC and Legacy of Letters are returning to Brooklyn for the first walk in the borough since 2015. This time the focus will be on a group of neighborhoods in the heart of Brooklyn bounded by Church Avenue\, Ocean Parkway\, King’s Highway\, and Utica Avenue: Flatbush\, Ditmas Park\, East Flatbush\, Ocean Parkway\, and Flatlands. It is a very residential area so that the lettering we will see will include many apartment building names and addresses. But there will also be small businesses\, churches and synagogues\, public schools\, Brooklyn College\, and two cemeteries to provide some variety. The lettering will include a few examples of neon\, some Art Deco\, some Hebrew\, lots of sans serif carved in stone as well as cast in metal\, and a few funky hard-to-describe letters. \nAs with recent lettering walks we will finish with a meal or a drink at a neighborhood restaurant or bar. \nPaul Shaw is a designer and a design historian. He has been leading lettering tours of New York City neighborhoods for 10 years and of other cities\, both here and in Italy\, since 1997. As a designer he specializes in letterforms from calligraphy to type design. Paul has designed or co-designed 18 fonts\, including Kolo\, Donatello and Old Claude. As a historian he has written or lectured about Bartolomeo Sanvito\, W.A. Dwiggins\, Oswald Cooper\, Frederic W. Goudy\, George Salter\, Phil Gruskin\, Hermann Zapf and others. \nMeeting place and itinerary will be emailed a few days in advance of the tour.

SUMMARY:TDC at Parsons: Neville Brody
DESCRIPTION:Neville Brody is coming to New York to speak on “Type and Time” as part of our TDC at Parsons program. \nDifferent eras\, different societies\, and different peoples demand different ways of communicating. As technology\, tools\, and tasks change over time\, the languages we speak and the way we speak them need to evolve to remain appropriate and relevant. This fluid approach to type design and usage underpins the work of Neville Brody\, from his early hand-drawn type for record covers and magazines in the eighties through experimental type venture FUSE in the nineties\, to recent work for Samsung\, Channel4\, and Coca-Cola.  \nBrody presents his type thoughts and expressions through the ages\, and talks about his ideas for the future.  \nNeville Brody by Adam J. Schokora \nNeville Brody is acknowledged as a seminal designer specializing in digital design\, typography\, and identity. His insight and passion for pushing creative boundaries informs the work of Brody Associates\, the collaborative creative agency he founded. \nHis main focus is on exploring the edges of visual languages\, and seeking an experimental approach to design and communication. \nHis work over three decades ranges from album sleeves and identities for cultural institutions to corporate work for global businesses. \nBrody is also Dean of the School of Communication at London’s Royal College of Art. He is a Royal Designer for Industry\, and past president of Design & Art Direction\, which promotes creative excellence. He lectures globally on design and education. \n#typeandtime \nBrody Associates\nTwitter: @B_associates\nInstagram: @brody_associates \nType Network\nTwitter: @typenetwork \nInstagram: @typenetwork

SUMMARY:Chicago Workshop: Type Design for Non-Type Designers
DESCRIPTION:Go beyond choosing the same fonts from the type menu to creating your own typefaces and become your own type designer. \nGet a crash course in designing type from Matteo Bologna\, Creative Director of award-winning studio Mucca Design. This (always sold out) 6 hours workshop will introduce you to the basic skills necessary for the wild journey into the super fun world of type design. This class will teach you the basics of designing and generating a typeface with the font-design software Glyphs (Mac only). \nIn the morning session we will learn the basics of drawing a font\, generate the font\, and use it in InDesign.In the afternoon\, we will add additional letters to the font\, learning how to kern them\, add diacritics\, and produce the combined letters. At the end of the day\, we will not have a finished font\, but a respectable start and hopefully you’ll be infected with the type making bug. \nRequirements:\nBasic Adobe Illustrator skills are necessary.\nYou must bring your own laptop with a full or trial version of the font design program Glyphs already installed (download a free 30-day trial). Sorry no Windows\, no Fontlab\, no Robofont.\nNo prior experience is required in font design\, but some experience with Bézier-based vector drawing tools is useful. \nABOUT MATTEO BOLOGNA\nMatteo Bologna is the principal of Mucca Design\, where he also serves as Creative Director.

SUMMARY:Creative Week Urban Lettering Walk: Garment District and Chelsea
DESCRIPTION:This year’s Creative Week Urban Lettering Walk is co-sponsored by the Type Directors Club\, The One Club\, and Legacy of Letters. Design historian Paul Shaw will walk participants through the adjoining West Side neighborhoods of the Garment District and Chelsea between 42nd Street and 14th Street to see letters. \nThe Garment District is an industrial neighborhood\, dominated by early 20th century setback skyscrapers with a variety of lettering styles for the building names. Mixed in with these gritty industrial buildings are a few churches and retail outlets to provide additional lettering variety. Chelsea is more residential with named apartment buildings\, schools\, churches\, and banks to provide lettering of interest. Stylistically\, we will see textura\, versals\, sans serif\, slab serif\, classical Roman capitals\, some Art Deco\, and a little bit of neon. In short\, a little bit of everything. \nPaul Shaw has been leading lettering tours of New York City neighborhoods and of other cities since 1997. As a designer\, he specializes in letterforms and has designed or co-designed 18 fonts\, including Kolo\, Donatello and Old Claude. \nMeeting place and itinerary will be emailed a few days in advance of the tour.
