Introduction to Font Making in Glyphs Mini

with Viktor Baltus

In this three hour workshop, you’ll learn how to start creating your own fonts in Glyphs Mini. You’ll learn how to set up your grid, how to draw with the pen tool (which works surprisingly better than the one you are probably familiar with in Adobe software), and how to create sans serif and serif letterforms.

This workshop is perfect for artists and creatives of all levels and backgroundsβ€”ideal for those who’d like to learn the basics of font making.

In this workshop you’ll also receive a PDF, packed with actionable tips, tricks and advice.

 
 

IN THIS CLASS, WE WILL COVER…

  • The basic structure of Glyphs Mini

  • How to draw and construct letters with the pen tool

  • How to create sans serif and serif letterforms

  • How to export and test your own fonts

Replay available for 72 hours after the workshop ends!
