as a graphic designer, yes! I can't help but recognize fonts everywhere since I started studying for graphic design. That really leaves me interested in seeing more of this! :)
Hearing passionate experts in something like font is so interesting. No one else will say "let me show you one of my favorite wood letter stamps." These people know a lot about their subject because they like it.
Dylan Dreisbach you should watch the series abstract on netflix, especially the one about typeface, its interesting and of people like that. people talking about their passions is always interesting
There's Netflix series that covers typography in two (if I remember correctly) episodes. It's called "Abstract: the art of design". I recommend it. :) Edit: I just checked the episodes list to remind myself... There's one episode "Typeface" about typography and another one "Graphic Design", which is pretty similar.
@@yasminalothman7926 Because old fonts and letterings were made as the metal and wooden stamp things shown in the video ( 2:18 I think). So it’s literally a hit when you type or stamp with the letter.
There is a specific font that is very typically used in the 1970s which has the real oversized long grounded seraphs at the bottom like bellbottoms and the top so much more narrow. You’d recognize it in an instant if you saw it.
I always thought it must have been designed in the 1960s as it was so widely used then, so it was interesting to learn that that was its second wave of popularity. And yes, it's fascinating how typography fashion can follow clothing fashion so closely! (BTW, it's "serifs" - "seraphs" are a kind of angel.)
My type 1 professor hated how often I used cooper black because I “wasn’t challenging myself enough”. It’s just such a cool, fun typeface and works in so many different situations.
I remember finding this font/similar font in PowerPoint and I thought “ah, finally a refreshing font to use.” until I saw this. it’s everywhere, but it’s so everywhere you just don’t notice it.
The thing is, a lot of "helvetica" you see isn't actually real Helvetica, it's Arial. Arial is a Helvetica knock-off that comes with every copy of Windows. Because Microsoft didn't want to pay the costs of licensing Helvetica from Linotype. Apple MacOS comes with Helvetica as standard though.
It's not precisely a "why" video, but VSauce has a "defense of comic sans" video that explores it's history and how it reached today's popularity. You might like it.
*A poem* This letter style of 'Cooper' it's a real old super trooper, its just the font we want, and who knew we'd be watching this today, its not a disappointment! The end :) Im a poet don't cha know it, a bad one! Ha
It's also worth mentioning that Cooper Black is included as a default font with a ton of Microsoft Office products which is probably partially why it's still used so widely today
I loved this video, probably because I love letters. Typography is such a subtle art that so few recognize even though they may see it every day. I'm definitely looking forward to viewing all of your font videos. Many thanks!

@@gremlinwithstickyhands3704 I've actually seen my personal art improve a lot while studying gd!!! It's a hard trade to get into with all the programs and terminology but I've found it so worth it :D
I recently digitalized a typeface that was otherwise lost in history. There is another version of it, but it's not the original, and I wanted the original. So I took a photo of my design-book where the typeface was featured. I cleaned it up in Photoshop and used Fontself to make it a digital font. The original is by a danish architecture called Gunnar Biilmann Petersen. *_You should really do a video on this typeface_* using old pictures and stuff because it's amazing, and I feel like it needs to see the light of day, again.
"A typeface doesn't reach it's full potential until it is put into somebody else's hands." Wow. Okay. Worldview adjusted. Thank you. Also, this video is packed with so many cool poster and covers and generally pieces of good art. I was pausing at like, each second to take in the art on the screen. Great Job Vox!
I figured this out when I needed to steal the font from the Brothers album cover as a 14 year old and realized Cooper Black was pretty much the 4th place font to Times New Roman, Arial, and Helvetica
Great editing. Great video! 5:30 "These negative spaces within each character make Cooper Black incredibly light & friendly, while still commanding attention." ... The way the 'e' emerges, as if grinning😀
This font is literally everywhere like I never noticed as it's that common. But who knew a font would have this much history. Also well researched, good narration, the bgm, the graphics everything about this video is well done. It's informative and interesting at the same time.
I honestly love the Cooper Black font. It’s everywhere but I don’t think I’ve ever noticed that until watching this video. It’s a naturally satisfying font.
As a child in the late 80's I had a set of this font for a toy alphabet kind of thing. It was a little magnetic desktop on a hinge and inside the desk was all the Cooper Black letters in bright colors with tiny magnets set into them. Calling this font ubiquitous is an understatement.
This is a really fun video concept and it led me to the Font Review Journal website, which is equally interesting. I love Vox videos that explain the history and context of little things that are everywhere in our world but fade into the background.
The use by so many hip hop crews can be associated to the similarity of graffiti type and stencil forms used in DIYs. The font was actually called of "Black threat" because of the amount of tint used (and for the age it was pretty racist too).
THANK YOU i always thought everyone just used this typeface because it's pretty- which it is, but the history and the little details always got me curious
