Playing with typography in Affinity Designer is my JAM

As promised, I made some interesting shapes / logo marks with Affinity Designer's contour tool, and you should do the same.

This process needs experimentation and refinement, but if you mess around with this idea, I want to know about it.

[@rioburton7643]

This video has been so helpful! Thank you very much

[@longroth4882]

Since they added the contour tool I've only used it occasionally. Decades of habit is to just draw what I want, but seeing how creative it can be using text and shapes like this (something I would draw shapes, use boolean operations, then tweak), I really need to start playing with it more. How about that Dave, you're teaching an old dog new tricks... tee hee...
Thanks!

[@DaveConrey]

Yeah, I don't use it often either, but if you're willing to dive deep on it, I bet you can make some truly interesting (and unpredictable) possibilities.

[@indicaokard2004]

You are appreciated! Please make more instructional videos… you capture my ADHD and make them easy to follow!

[@DaveConrey]

Glad you liked it. I'll do what I can to help.

[@amyleigh4939]

I would love some tutorials on Affinity Designer and Photo for the iPad!

[@DaveConrey]

I don’t work on them as often, but I think we can work it in.

[@AngelDesign1]

May not be a logo designer but that was creative enough for me. :-)

[@DaveConrey]

Well thank you.

[@lifesfluff]

[@DaveConrey]

I try to keep them short.

[@oooooohmylisa]

[@DaveConrey]

As long as you give me credit.

[@oooooohmylisa]

[@DaveConrey]
