Episode #87

New workshop alert!! We’re so excited to partner with our very clever friend Thomas Jockin and give you the chance to dig into his amazing business brain when it comes to selling custom type projects to clients. He’s pitched (and won) type projects with big names like Microsoft and Google, and has a decade of experience in crafting the perfect pitch, all of which he’ll be sharing with YOU on 28 Feb. Register for this one to go away with heaps of tips for your next type pitch.

In this week’s articles we’ve got two industry topics, one on the recent move by Dribbble to bring Fontspring into their growing family, and another from Nuclear bits on what they’re seeing as a result of Hoefler&Co joining Monotype last year.

In a typographic tribute to Valentine’s Day, we’re getting squishy and talking about rrrrromance. Ok, it’s not a day we’re actually fans of, but we did love the excuse to talk about some type and design trends in popular culture… even if they’re trends that Olivia HATES. Make sure you tune in to hear Olivia get very passionate about her dislike of the new cliches of romance media.

If you spot anything cool on the web that you’d like us to chat about, hit us up on Twitter or Instagram, you’ll find us @theleagueof on both platforms.
