Inge Druckrey: Teaching to See

I’ll have to say this is one of the most refreshing documentaries that I have watched in awhile. I really enjoyed Inge’s approach to teaching. Just think of how amazing it is when you have a great teacher that is willing to expand your mind to think about things differently and in a wide open way.

 

Pilot Parallel Pen Review

 

One of the very early calligraphy tools that I purchased was the pilot parallel pens you see in this video. The parallel pens are used to do gothic and italic calligraphy. I had became more interested in gothic and italic calligraphy than copperplate to be exact.

The Pilot parallel pens are great and very useful. I love the ease of changing the cartridges and how they function.

I work God Damn Hard (hand lettering process)

In this video I wanted to capture the process of from beginning to end. Because the process of sketching out letters then inking them takes time. Also the process is one that is very enjoyable. Whenever you start a project of such you are more appreciative of when it is finished.

The quote is far from being god but I work god damned hard. The quote is one that I really like and it is a from a Jay Z song so I decided you know thats what I am going to ink. This was a way for me to get out of my comfort zone with calligraphy/brush lettering.

Amazement calligraphy and brush pen lettering

 

I have been posting a weekly video of my calligraphy and brush pen lettering to my youtube channel. Make sure to check in weekly on Friday at 6pm Est. The whole process of shooting editing and adding the instrumental has been very fun.

I am going to start adding in new videos soon. If there is any type of video that you’d like me to add in feel free to let me know.

How Do Vending Machines Detect Fake Coins?

After watching this video on how vending machines can detect fake coins I am blown away. Because I have always wondered how the machines work. Well we know that you put money in and press buttons to get your food. But there is more to them than just doing that.

I will never forget the days of paying for your snack and it not coming out and or it would get stuck right at the edge.
