Typography Dojo Type in Education: ArtCenter College of Design with Sean Adams

Typography is one of those subjects that is difficult to teach well. It’s relatively easy for most of us to give designers the theory behind type and the beginning steps to practice. Exceptional instructors teach students how to transform those steps into a well-choreographed dance that captures the imaginations of readers and creates the visual voice of the story.

During this talk, we’ll take a look at what’s working and not working in contemporary typography instruction, we’ll dissect design projects and critical analysis, and we’ll hear from the students to learn from the learners themselves about how they were able to close the gap between education and application.

In this episode, we’ll chat with Sean Adams, Executive Director of the Graphic Design Graduate Program and Acting Chair of the Graphic Design Program at ArtCenter College of Design.
