If you're like me, you've wanted to make your own typeface based on your own handwriting, but where do you even begin? Aside from writing letters on a page, what turns your marks into a functional, digital typeface, and how long will that take? And how much is it going to cost?

Fast Fonts is a full-featured course that will show you the technical aspects of creating fonts from scratch, and give you a unique perspective on typography delivered in a way that's fun and easy to follow.

What You'll Learn:

Typographic basics, history, and important tips
Which software options to choose
Creating personalized templates for your fonts
Maximizing efficiency while using the templates
How to test and tune your typeface
Exporting and implementing into your workspace

At the end of this course, you'll have a better understanding of how fonts are made, what rules to follow and which to break, and you'll walk away with at least one fully-functional font to use yourself or share with others.
