A Brief History of Type

I created this video for my Tool 2 Type class.

[@michaellargent6700]

As an educator, I appreciate the time, effort, and content of your presentation. My Basic Typography classes will be viewing your efforts from now on. Thank you!

[@MrTypeSETit]

Thank you. As a type designer, I enjoyed the project and learned a lot as well.

[@davis1729]

Rob - this is an amazing video! Professionally produced with excellent content, and most importantly a very insightful way of capturing the history of type/typography and printing throughout the years, right up to today.

[@Exozik]

Best resume about typography I have seen. Thank you for the content.

[@masterchiefguy7129]

Well Done! I apologize I'm late to the party, but if you/your viewers ever find yourself in Massachusetts, check out the Museum of Printing in Haverhill MA, they have all sorts of type, presses, casting machines, even computer and phototypesetting. Basically everything you mentioned in the video, the museum has an example. The museum also has an extensive library of books about books, publishing and printing. There are hundreds of books all devoted to alphabets, writing, and typographic design. And if you get the chance, check out the Printing Office of Edes & Gill in Boston, re-creating an 18th century printing office, where Revolutionary documents are replicated and printed on the same kinds of equipment and type as used in the period.

[@rickygodette]

What song is that around 6 minutes? The jazz song? Heard it in 1995 and have been searching for it ever since

[@MrTypeSETit]

Hey Ricky, I think you are referring to Herb Albert and the Tijuana Brass. There should be a credit at the end of the video for ALL materials in this video.

[@MrTypeSETit]

I found the credit at 10:23... "A Taste of Honey"

[@rickygodette]

@@MrTypeSETit Thank you!!!

[@kid_doonski]

Anyone know the end credits music?

[@MrTypeSETit]

It's RADIO MARTINI by Kevin MacLeod. I missed it in the credits. Hope that helps.

I have to admit, I don't have a clue what your comment means. Would you be so kind as to decipher it for me?

[@PhuNguyen-ph6lx]

@@MrTypeSETit A course from our university use this video as a guideline for our assignment

[@MrTypeSETit]

@@PhuNguyen-ph6lx Ahh, so I assume that your comment is proof you completed the assignment?

[@PhuNguyen-ph6lx]

@@MrTypeSETit yup, your video helps a lot. Thanks man

[@soul3638]

The only way how this type of videos can get views? School project! -_- PS: Its only a joke. Ik some ppl liks this type of topic ;)

[@karlomarkovic3777]

lmao

[@MrTypeSETit]

I do know this is a niche topic, and you are probably right. I created this for educational purposes to be used as a background aid in teaching font design. Cheers!
