I’M NOT REALLY SURE we can think of ourselves as news designers without having a strong respect and love for typography. After, all, type is about 80 percent of what we do!
So when I come across a little piece of fun-typography-in-motion, part of the fun is sharing it with you!
Enjoy!

TOO MANY PEOPLE who design newspaper pages know nothing (really…nothing!) about typography. That’s like a surgeon with no knowledge of anatomy.
This piece from PBS is no primer, but it does offer a sense of why typography is important.
Take a look.
More to come.

AT NEWSPAPERS, we really don’t do cover pages, do we? Or…do we?
How about that football tab?
Or the special advertising section for Memorial Day?
Or that feature front on New Year’s Day?
OK…yes…we do cover design.
So, here’s a piece—using the front of a photo magazine—on how you can do it better.
I like the way this video breaks down the steps in the process. And one of the things it stresses has long been a principle I teach others: You create a better design by what you take away…not what you add.
Watch. Learn. Enjoy.
