Simple Hand Lettering- A Step by Step for Beginners

[@ShaydaCampbell]

Hi guys! A few people have mentioned the problem with the camera angles in this video and I totally agree with you. It was my first video and I had some trouble with my over-the-shoulder camera cutting out. Recently I've made some more lettering videos and I think the production quality is better. (But I still have lots to learn, so please continue to comment). Check out my channel to watch the newer videos or click the link to watch my holiday greeting card tutorial: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nqDclGywZZyobqs

[@coco328i]

Thank you for sharing! 👌 Btw, who cares about the way people holding their pens, chopsticks, and knives as long as it works for them. Funny to see people actually make rude comments for this lovely lady who trying to share her knowledge.

Good to see mostly kind comments here. For the rest of you, how could you be so rude to such a sweet lady!?

[@ScotCampbellwindowpainter]

It's true! and sign writing is getting more popular too. Nice video.

[@w.tollefson371]

Simple yet cool...

[@lisavogeler123]

This is a great tutorial! I have been getting into hand lettering and such, and this will definitely help me out!

[@adolys5616]

OH. MY GOD. 😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱YOU HOLD YOUR PEN THE SAME WAY I DO!!! *sings* FOR THE FIRST TIME IN FOREVVVERRRRRRRRR (you're literally the first person that has ever done it like that!)

[@tonyabalt9775]

Thankyou so much for sharing. I am inspired to make some signs. You make such a happy video about hand lettering. Keep up the great work.

[@stefaniestaniak4329]

Love all the technique advice. You are very easy to listen to and understand. I would really love it if you had an overhead camera mount. It would be so much easier to see exactly what you are doing. Thanks for sharing your videos, I really do love them.

[@myruggy89]

One of the best hand lettering how-to's/tutorials/tips/lessons/etc. videos I have found so far. Do you plan on creating more hand lettering videos?

[@ShaydaCampbell]

myruggy89 Yes! And thanks! I am also working on some simple water colour tutorials.

[@myruggy89]

Shayda Campbell Awesome, I look forward to them.

[@ShaydaCampbell]

Hi guys! Thanks for watching my lettering videos! Find me on instagram @the11thapartment instagram.com/the11thapartment/ I try to post hand lettering projects, crafts, baked goods, and personal pics every day!

[@kharawhitead4363]

Very simple & inspiring!!! Thanx so much! ♥

[@azzuparis]

Thanks Shayda, I woul love to start hand lettering and you are so inspiring. I will definitely give it a try 😊

[@Kriver12]

Beautiful handwriting!! I think the video was awesome considering it was your first :D ...I do have to admit that the way you hold your pen made me a bit uncomfortable LOL! but I loved the end result

[@Kandicookheller]

Very helpful. Thank you.

[@JellytheOT]

Thanks for this wonderful tutorial! Please make more lettering vids :)

[@donnasilva46]

Very nice.

[@donnarudd5056]

Thank you - you made it very easy!

[@hot6bud]

Simple but perfect for beginners like i am... Thank you for sharing! :)

[@gwynf2107]

I absolutely love all your videos!! They helped a ton

[@ponkieskyblue]

Loved it! Thanks so much for this!

[@bekbeagle7589]

Thank you so much, I've found this so helpful!

[@alliebryan3645]

What type of thick tip artist marker do you use?

[@jadyanetuller6078]

love your job! best wishes from Brazil!

[@JarodBillingslea]

Please do more of these Shayda. I would especially like to know how you are able to draw it out as a skeleton and then add the thickness to it. That is my biggest challenging when drawing cursive letters.

[@ShaydaCampbell]

***** Hey, I've got a new video to post this week, but once it's up, I will definitely try to make a video dealing with this issue!

[@paytonjonesie2287]

this is so helpful! also, your voice is SOOO SOOTHING! ❤️

[@annasharp3199]

Should horizontal lines be thick or skinny (for example a t)?

[@legallyemily8435]

Anna Sharp usually only down lines are thick so horizontal would be thin

[@RitasBraceletBar]

Hi Shayda...what is the size of your marker tips you are using to draw your letters?

[@ShaydaCampbell]

Here's a link to my supplies video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hl6Wk4Fpqsatgrc I go over my favourite supplies and also list links in that video description.

[@irhonda31]

I’m a new subbie, and starting from the beginning now, after thoroughly enjoying a couple more recent videos. (I’m hoping to run into some basics on letter formation.) TFS!

[@emmaclaire7552]

I hold my pencil the same way! Do you have a bump on your ring finger where the pencil rests? Cause I do (:

[@ShaydaCampbell]

+Emma Claire (EC) LOL Yup!

[@jenniferdelacruz1786]

The way you hold the pen is so strange I love it

[@charlenejo2490]

Jennifer De La Cruz I hold my pencil somewhat the same type but with my left hand.

[@clarefernandez2409]

me too!!!

[@yhnguye]

hi! I think this is really cool!! Do you think you could post either a sheet or video of what the lowercase and uppercase alphabet looks like in the handlettering cursive writing? that would be awesome! thank you!

[@richardstone2025]

Good job keep the good work up 👍

[@rylee.julian]

You helped me so much!🤗

thank you so much dear. I am so glad for finding this video. it was so helpful this up n down tip. keep up like that and teach more types of caligraphies :D

[@deborahwright5387]

Day went to purchase a friend some flowers for her kindness to me. I purchased the most beautiful arrangement of all white Lillie’s and other white fillers and it was the most beautiful arrangement I had ever seen. How to make white flowers stand out?

[@ShaydaCampbell]

Lovely! I shared some tips in these videos: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oJOcemloiNx0qtU kzbin.info/www/bejne/nYK0eo1-iMaZoqs

[@GalaxiesCloud]

do you have any tips for improving your cursive? I love the way you do this, but my cursive isn't up to par, and love the idea of hand lettering! :)

[@ShaydaCampbell]

[@willow-wm6un]

I have started watching you for real. From the first. Please, do not be afraid when you will see my comments under the videos. I am not a psychotic fan, it is just a word: "Thank You".

[@riyaursani9296]

Thank you so much!

[@Kiyonce.Kartier]

i love this! new subbie!

[@rexkellerman2109]

I'm trying to get better at hand lettering

[@susanewing8458]

It would be helpful to have your camara angled above or to the side. Could not really see what you were really doing. I see from other comments that you have fixed that...The ones from the side was very helpful, thanks.

[@hunnibon-y1s]

Love it

[@shembustamante6925]

I found it really really really helpful.... thanks for posting this video.Because I need to learn lettering for my assignment. so I'm finding a video here in youtube that teaches how to do lettering... in the other videos that I have been watched, beautiful but so hard for beginners like me. then I watched your video and I was amazed because it is a beautiful one and easy at the same time... when I tried, it is so beautiful. I followed your instructions. I did calligraphy style because it's so beautiful! and easy... but the whimsical block lettering is also beautiful... thanks again.:-)

[@kayabrams4884]

Fig leaf! You asked about a leaf in one of your illustrations. Hahaha🙋🏻

[@lahorekhan8767]

Why are you holding the pen the way you do? that is different from how i hold it?

[@lahorekhan8767]

***** hum I see.

[@Khamomil]

It's a bad habit she picked up when she learned first how to write, that her teacher should have corrected but didn't. Lots of people hold their pen like this.

[@srizualemgr]

Thank you ❤️

[@VixenAurora]

This really helped me! Thank you, from a new subscriber! ^.^

[@jozefka1019]

well i would LOVE to use some handlettering and illustrations in my school notes but i think that will take a lot of my time :(

[@sumiasultana3219]

nice

[@handletteringtutorials8782]

fun style!! ps: I have no idea how to pronounce staedtler either haha

[@muff309]

Nice video :)

[@hanhnhan9673]

Type of paper you use is???

[@pavithrabhat3602]

I really loved your tutorial!! But i personally feel u can improve on ur filming skills nd focus more on the work u do than yourself! Loved the tutorial though!! Keep up the work😊💞

[@Lavender13-eg8ji]

I was in 3rd grade when this came out 😭

[@misunflowerstyle906]

oh, at end of videos, could you snap a couple pics of the full alphabet? I just did the hey bae. but I would like to see your entire alphabet because at my age, I don't see the opportunity to use that phrase coming up to often, LOL. (Sadly, no bae).

[@yelsyels]

You saved the day by editing...but I would remove this video as I was about to "give up the ghost' on this one if I hadn't watched previous from you.

[@vanneswing]

thanks

[@MrCaipiroshka]

i felt in love...

Ya can't see anything! Camera should be above

[@TheStefif]

why would you shoot a video like this and show the sheet of paper first sideways, then upside down and completely out of focus? You basically showed the final product on the "yeah". No idea how you got there

[@rmalus10297]

TheStefif or you can read the comments some, instead of bitching. she said this was her first video abs had to get the hang of it. cool your jets. it's just a fun KZbin video.

[@abbychampagne1989]

I got so mad trying to do this. Broke down crying and tore the paper. Whoops.

[@doratiscareno5856]

No help... Cant see what you are doing

[@averybell4273]

Cant see

[@sandrae2030]

Wow. Not a good tutorial as you need to show your work not the speaker.

[@madhusmita9496]

...

[@deniselane4160]

on your "yeah" you didn't even bother to show EXACTLY HOW you did it!!!! Couldn't see a think you wrote right from the beginning!!! Not Cool.

[@lindamcneely]

you are not showing the video what is the point. .

[@jennifercruz6255]

Terrible camera angle!

[@manmohangill1084]

[@hotcoffeegirll]

Work on the angles. Thanks.
