AIGA ATL: Wine and Whiskey Rescripted

DESCRIPTION

Have you ever wanted to design the lettering for a whiskey or wine label? Well, now’s your chance. Come explore the nuances that various script lettering styles can have on a bottle, the same way subtle notes in a sip of wine can either make it enjoyable or sour the experience.

Join Neil Summerour (Positype) and Emily Conners (Emily Lime Design) in a laid-back PENCIL lettering workshop that focuses on technique and proper decision making for script lettering compositions. Explore exaggerated roundhands, formal and casual cursives, or even a retro brush script… from form to flourish. The decision is yours.

Technique and real-project presentations, demonstrations, one-on-one instruction, and critiques will help you see the letterforms you create in a new way. Reference materials from a wide range of sources will be present to work from.

In addition to flourishing fun, the workshop will feature a mini tasting from a rep at American Spirit Whiskey, Atlanta’s original whiskey brand by ASW Distillery
