Font Geeks have fun too!

Posted by Tara Reed on Dec 3, 2009 in Art Licensing, inspiration |

Ah Jill Seale! She is one funny gal and this morning she gave me the first smile on my very tired face (it was SO WINDY in Portland last night that I did more tossing and turning than snoozing)...

She sent me an email that simply said, "Enjoy this. From a friend of a friend." Then there was a link to a YouTube video.

Well my blog posts have been so informative lately I decided it was time for a little fun.  Enjoy this little type-face parody of the song "Poker Face".  Intel has an ad campaign saying "Our jokes aren't like your jokes" and I'd say that rings true for the font world as well based on this.  ENJOY!

Here's another laugh about fonts-- a video on a "Font conference" where all the fonts show up to argue against modern fonts invading their space. http://www.collegehumor.com/video:1823766
