About This Workshop
Learn how to shape, style, and apply your lettering designs with the award-winning designer Jessica Hische! This in-depth workshop brings together Jessica's three popular classes and walks you through her unique process for three different lettering applications: a single drop cap letter, a logotype, and a full lettering layout. Each of the three classes are chock full of demonstration, Jessica’s signature attention to detail, and small tips and tricks for bringing your work to a professional level. This workshop is for intermediate and advanced designers looking to go behind-the-scenes with a master lettering artist — helping you unlock new approaches, techniques, and your best lettering artwork yet!
Workshop Timeline:
- Milestone 1: We’ll start by focusing on the foundation of lettering – creating a single letter. In Lettering for Designers: One Drop Cap Letterform at a Time, Jessica shares her personal lettering process and tips and tricks for creating an ornamented drop cap letter. Along the way, you’ll develop a full arsenal of tools to create perfect letters that will feel natural and look amazing for every project and style. You’ll share your own design in the project gallery by March 18th.
- Milestone 2: Next up, we’ll take things a step further with logotypes — stylizing a word, brand, or name. In Jessica’s Logotype Masterclass, you’ll learn her methodical approach for improving individual letterforms and overall designs to create your best work. You’ll put your skills to action by improving a real-world logo or a piece of previous work. Share your process and updated design in the project gallery by April 1st.
- Milestone 3: Finally, we’ll cover combining multiple illustrated phrases into a single lettering layout with Illustrated Lettering: Design a Book Cover. In this comprehensive class, Jessica will walk you through designing a lettered book cover in Procreate from initial sketch to final edit. For your final project, you’ll design a cover for one of your own favorite books and share it in the project galley by April 15th.
