Typography School

Hey Omar, an excellent film! Really tight editing and choice of sound. Love Len Lye animation too.
Thanks to Wing for showing it to me.

anybody got any idea what video format they used to put in the editing for the video? im making a grindhouse based short film and id like to have more on my video than the windows movie maker effect FILM AGE, OLD

the format woulnt matter dude - use' any video convertor' to change to any format -- then use AE or final cut to add an effect should be super easy ---

Letterpress is dead, move on please . . . its called evolution and its perfectly natural. I dont understand why that old teacher is so hell bent on teaching his students his self indulgent, boring trade.

it is not, because the knowledge is lost only, it would be a lot better if people who let their computer think and even call themselves kind of designers or whatever would really know why the computer is doing stuff for them they WOULD normally supposed to know themselves, everybody can do shitty webdesign with photoshop but least of the masses know what theyre doing and why.

of course letterpress itself is dead, for sure. but computers only make it faster. as mentioned, you SHOULD be able to think, still.

Amazing video, first time I've come across this. Cheers for the memories omairways. Excellent.

I spent 4 years at LCP/LCC and was taught by Dave. I had the fortune of studying on the last ever HND in Typography. I loved every minute of it. Eccentric top bloke.

I also had typography class at school but decided to do photography instead of graphic design. Boy, how boring it got. Don't get me wrong, I love experimenting a bit with letters/fonts (mostly combined with image) but the boundries are easily reached for me. Plus my teacher was way serious. C'mon about some letters? I don't really care how the letters are placed, a little bit too much to the right? It's about what the words read not about the beauty of them? Agree?

No.

I'm a 2nd year design communication design in sydney, Australia. I'd KILL for a course like that. amazing.
