Digital Lettering for Beginners

“We have reached the end of the course, I hope that the work process that I have shared, as well as all the tips we saw in the different units, will be useful in future projects. I remind you that this requires a lot of practice and time, I advise you to master small things first; Start by drawing letters, then one or two words and finally more complex things, so you will realize that if you go little by little, when you least expect it you will be making interesting compositions. The design I made in the course is complex because I want to show you how far you can go using the content of the lessons, but you can choose a different project, which goes according to your tastes and abilities, whether it's a label, packaging, shirt, postcards, even stickers . With all these applications you can use a lot of content and you can play with the design to apply what you have learned. Be patient, the more projects you do, the better the results and a finished design is better than a perfect one, so finish your projects even if it is not the result you expected, I assure you that the next one will be better. Finally, try to always take into account the opinion not only of teachers, but in general of people around you, sometimes we get interesting insights from unexpected places. Share your project so that your classmates can see it and try to give each other feedback. I will also be on the lookout for your tasks to give you feedback as soon as possible. Good luck with your projects! :)”
