< TwitterCon / Dutch Design Legend Gerard Unger Wins 2009 SOTA Typography Award >
Wednesday, July 8 5:40 pm/ Posted by Tamye / Permalink
Get that new typeface ready for review! It's become a tradition - Matthew Carter, John Downer, and Akira Kobayashi will once again donate their time and expertise to lead their famous Type Critique sessions during TypeCon. As a bonus this year, Gerard Unger will join our trio as a special guest "critter." These masters of the craft will offer gentle, constructive criticism to eight designers submitting a single type design for review.
Priority will be given to type designers who have not had a typeface critiqued by our panel previously. Please let us know when you sign up on-site if you have participated in the critiques in the past.
A gentle reminder: Single typefaces only - no typeface families will be reviewed. Please bring printed specimens at a size that's easy for viewing, and for passing around the review table. Multiple copies of specimens are appreciated. No presentations on laptop computers will be permitted.
Take a peek at the critique sessions held at TypeCon2007 in Seattle - SOTA volunteer Eben Sorkin posted a showcase with still photos and audio on YouTube.
