Fontself


This is a bitmap font and text engine called FONTSELF conceived and designed by graphic designers, Franz Hoffman and Pierre Terrier from studio koilinen in Lausanne, Switzerland, and software developer, Marc Escher. "FONTSELF is a type project about handwriting and drawn writing. It provides the ability to create fonts that preserve the gestures of a given handwriting and the original look of the drawing appliance (ball-point pen, pencil, ink, paper, etc.). FONTSELF proposes intuitive tools to create and edit bitmap font (scanned letters) as well as solutions to use them and exchange them."

Gondry


Love them or hate them, these HP spots are sucking in big names, big money, and getting progressively more elaborate each time. This latest HP spot features nutbar dream director Michel Gondry doing what he does best, which is everything, including talking about himself. Directed by his brother Olivier Gondry for Goodby, Silverstein & Partners, San Francisco. It was the last commercial produced by Partizan New York before Gondry switched to Paranoid for US representation.
