How To Customize Fonts For Logo Design

Project Description The project for this class is to pick an existing Sans-Serif font then choose a word, business name, etc and customize the typography to your liking. This doesn't have to be for a logo, but it is one of the most common uses of customized fonts. If you'd like to upload your project (and I hope you do) please write the name of the font you used and show a screen shot of your word before and after. I look forward to seeing what you all come up with!

About This Class

This typography customization class is aimed at anyone that is at least a bit familiar with Adobe Illustrator and wants to learn how to customize existing fonts to their liking without being a typographical master!

Customizing fonts is easy and allows you to be more creative and not rely on a pre-made fonts to dictate how your design looks.

In this class we will do case studies on a variety of famous logos to gather inspiration from their customizations to existing fonts. Then we will use that inspiration to complete our class project which is to customize a word for use in a logo or other medium.

If this sounds interesting to you, start watching and I'll see you in class!
