1.1 Introduction
Hey there and welcome to the Mastering Script Lettering course, my name is Scott Beersack. I am a freelance illustrator and designer with a large focus in type design and lettering. So here's a couple of designs that I've done in the past. Some packaging design for an apple cider company, skateboard designs for girl's skateboards, a chalk mural, whiskey packaging, a drop cap for the tight fight, a letter press print, and lastly some more whiskey packaging. So throughout this course we're going to cover every bit of information regarding script lettering, from proper letter form construction, to weight distribution, speeds, angles, flourishing, and even vectoring. So at the end of this course, we're gonna have two finished pieces of lettering, one very formal piece of script lettering, and one very informal piece of script lettering. Now if this is your first time drawing letter forms, don't worry if they don't turn out the way you expect them to, because this takes lots of time and practice, lots and lots of time and practice. But this course is gonna be perfect for anyone looking to get started within the lettering world, as well as those looking to perfect their already existing knowledge. So if you're ready to draw some letters, let's get started.
