Your tip on how to apply pressure and not about the angle is totally a life saver
Awesome! Thank you for watching!
Okay, I just got to say: your video helped me so much! I’ve never really understood the ins and outs of calligraphy, but when you said that it’s more about applying less/or more pressure rather than changing your angle, that really helped me understand what to do better! I definitely will still need lots of practice, but hearing that helped me a bunch and I’m starting to get the hang of the overall calligraphy technique better :)
Thank you! This is the best tutorial! We homeschool and this is so useful, I'm practicing as well. Thanks again!
Thank you for watching!
It looks so soft... I feel so calm with the thumbnail. Perhaps I was just here for the amazing calligraphy, simple but awesome.
Truly the best tutorial I've found on youtube. Other videos made it sound like you needed to turn the tips DURING the letter. As in they REALLY over-emphasized how often you needed to turn them. Also thought from other vids that you'd generally keep a light hand but your explanation has cleared all of my concerns so far. I am very grateful, thank you so much! ❤
This is one of the most helpful videos on modern calligraphy ever! Thank you 😘
what if I am left handed? it is much harder for me to do calligraphy😢 can you do a video about this?
I’m left handed too! It is so hard to learn!
Same
Magda Flis I’m left handed as well and I find it easy.
Tbh most really good artists r normally left handed i think u r good in it too
Magda Flis Like with other hobbies in most times you will have to practice. There is a ton of sheets online for free you can print for practicing calligraphy.
Just like improving your handwriting, write the alphabet both upper and lower case. Practice as usual but write the letter slowly to get the form. Writing a few times with practice and pace is key to good handwriting.
Also, handwriting looks much neater when the height of the letters, and especially close to each other. Most importantly since many cannot read or know how to read in cursive.
I would rather write in print so the handwriting looks clearer. While in cursive I want to make the handwriting, and letters more readable and clear.
So do not get sad. You can do it just know that you should believe in yourself.
could you do one with crayola supertips?
Yes, definitely! Thanks for watching!
How to Hand Letter thank you! and do you have any tips on how to form my letters? i have trouble with it. thanks again:)
Super tips are actually meant for calligraphy more than broad tip crayola markers
Thank you for the helpful video. You make it look so easy but I can see how it takes lots of practice to get muscle memory to set in. Great job!!! So much fun too!🤗😱🎉
Thank you for your tips (no pun intended)! I was doing lettering as I was watching the video and already saw improvement. I’m so grateful
Not even 5 minutes in and this is soooo helpful!!!
I just bought a pack of crayola, but I found it kind of hard to write thick stroke because the markers are too new. Will it get softer after drawing a while?
Eunice Lam yes I actually tried to do this and when it was new it was kinda hard but after some weeks or so it would be bettee
Eunice Lam 3:26
This is super helpful! I bought a workbook but watching you is actually much easier! Any tips for us left handed folks? I remember learning cursive as a child and how hard it was as my hand was always covering my actual work and smudging it as well!
you are the best calligraphy teacher!!
This is excellent for practicing hand lettering, thank you so much! Great tips, it really helps me to see how you write the letters. I think most of my letters suffer right now...except the dots over the i's and the j's lol Practice makes better! ^____^b I am grateful for this tutorial! PS I don't have Crayola markers, but the ones no-name markers have almost the exact same tip! Can't believe my luck!
your handwriting is so pretty
I love this video!
Finally I found a tutorial that explain step by step all the alphabet with crayola markers!
Thank you
i'm screaming because the cap wasn't all the way on im sorry
I have the thinner ones (supertips). Will it work the same?
Borhap.QueenGoddess 101 I know I'm late, but there's specific videos for hand lettering and calligraphy with Crayola Supertips, also. Just search it up and keep practising. I wish you the best of luck in your journey! :P
Your lettering is perfect!
I have the Daiso markers that has a similar tip so this really helps!!
This was super helpful thank you so much
TYSM for this video.It made it sooo easy!!!
You’re a great teacher! Thanks for this awesome video.
This is brilliant. Awesome job! 👍😁😘
Love this! Very helpful. Great channel I subbed
Thank you! And thanks for watching!
So Crayola isn't available where I live (India). I was today years old when I learned u can use stic colorstix' large bullet tip markers (also known as sketchpens) they are affordable, and easily available (atleast in Delhi) and I have heard they're rly durable tho I haven't used them enough to be sure. Ofc there are differences (majorly the tip shape and colours I think) but I can't say exactly what the differences are since I don't use Crayola. I've only watched videos and i can't really letter but I feel like it would work. U probably won't see this but if u did i hope this helped! ❤️
I'm so happy that you made this video because I had that very same problem months ago when I began looking into Crayola Lettering...thick lines all the time. Drills like yours do REALLY help and so do videos like this. Can I request maybe doing quotes using Crayolas Broad and the Supertips...I'm still struggling with the Supertips for some reason😒 and I find that watching other lettering quotes or statements...anything really...helps so much! I'd love your input/constructive feedback on my videos. They don't have many views and am feeling a bit discouraged as of lately....Thank You for all you share! Laura💐😄🙏
Hello! Thank you so much for watching! Yes, I will definitely dry to do more of those lettering videos. I struggle a bit with uploading them to youtube because once I speed them up, they are typically SO short, so sometimes I end up just posting them to Instagram. Maybe I will have to think about making a compilation so I'm not uploading a bunch of 30 second videos ;) Thanks for the suggestion.
As for the youtube channel, I'm so sorry you're feeling discouraged! Your lettering is beautiful. I'm no pro, but there are a couple of things you could try. First of all, I'd recommend trying to make your video titles a bit more searchable. Like on your last video, there might not be many people searching for a may lettering challenge or those specific pens or styles so specifically. But if you made it a little bit more generic, like "Calligraphy using Tombow Brush Pens". From what I understand, the first words in your titles & description box are what help people find you - so unless you have a huge following already, they may not be able to find you if you're not using phrases that people are looking up often. One way you can do this is to go to the search bar on youtube & search things about lettering and see what comes up. The ones that people are searching the most will come up as suggestions for you to choose. Try to use some of those as your tags in your video (use all of the tags they'll let you, too.. just make sure they're relevant or your video might get shut down). One other thing you might try is to add a voice over to your videos. I haven't ever done voiceovers yet, I usually just talk as I'm lettering and if I speed it up I just add music, but I have noticed that my videos with only music always get way less views than ones where I'm explaining what I'm doing. But don't get too discouraged! You are doing a great job! Hope that helps a bit!
I love your showing
Great as well as brilliant
Using this for an art comic thingy that I'm going to take a video of with the music in the background (fly me to the moon) thank you so much for this!!
any tips for lefties?
I rlly hope so because im left handed and it was so hard!!!💘✨😭
Try writing in normal script, then thicken every down stroke. Not the best start, but it gets better after some time
thank you
your tutorial is definately useful for me (beginner). May I ask you a question? Where to find these practice sheets? thank you again for your video.
Hi what kind of paper are you using in this video? thank you
LOVE love love
Thanks for watching!
I struggle with the amount of pressure applied when writing🤷...I've always done it and cannot get calligraphy lettering correct bc of it...do u have any suggestions
So helpful! Thank you!
what paper do you use?? because when I use normal paper it like crumbles idk
C K if your doing calligraphy its a lot easier to do it on harder paper, like the ones in journals or sketchbooks but if your doing it for notes you can put a piece of construction under the notebook paper and it will be easier
Wow, these seem to work wonderfully for handlettering! I'm trying to find them here.
I LOOOOOOOVVVEEEDDD tge video ❤ thx...v helpful
Thank you! Thanks for watching!
this was so fun! i wish my writing looked like yours!
Aw, thank you! Trust me, mine looked awful when I first started! It just takes some technique & lots of practice. Thanks for watching! I love your channel & am so glad you're back :)
can you please do a vid like this but with brush pens?tia
Pragya Bhatt I have some beginner style videos if you'd like to see how several different brush pens work! I also letter out Instagram Lettering Challenges. This channel has really inspired me and I like to share what I've learned!
@the lettering Virgo
thx
Yes! I definitely have them on my list. Thanks for watching!
Pragya Bhatt ã
Thanks!
your writing is perfect
Aw thank you! And thanks for watching!
do you think that being a lefty will pose a challenge?
i think it will depend on the pens you use, will they bleed? should you learn to write "backwards"? since most of the time you only write one letter at a time.. idk just some thoughts
Loved the tutorial! Could you please do a video with crelando brush pens?
Thank you. Great video
what is the difference betwen hand lettter an calligraphy? I noticed calligraphy is really swirly and beautiful.
So helpful!
Thank you!! Thanks for watching!
I just found your channel and I definitely LOVE IT!! Are your worksheets free?
Do you have a video like this one but with using tombow brush pens?
I have been trying and trying and it will never work!!!please help me
You done it so effortlessly.
Wonderful
Hey....can we do this with permanent chisel tipped broad marker?
Is it bad that I started hand lettering with nothing but an orange Crayola marker
I like the sneaky way you advertised your worksheet 😂
Ha! Well, I'm not trying to be too sneaky - I talk about them in pretty much all of my videos ;) since that and videos are the main way I teach people hand lettering! Thanks for watching!
where can i get the pink one you have in the video, not the purple you're writing with please i want to buy 12 and turquose too.
What type of paper works best? I want to hand letter my art journals but I'm concerned about porous vs. non-porous surfaces and how the crayolas will work with gel medium. Thanks for all your work on the practice sheets. Beautiful!
Hello! There are many types of specific marker paper that you can use, but I actually use HP Premium Choice laser jet paper for my lettering projects. In this video, I just used a sketch notepad, but I wouldn't recommend it because the paper is so textured - it will definitely ruin your brushes if you're using more delicate brush pens. I have a video that shows comparisons and why I love the paper I use - it's also pretty inexpensive on amazon. (Totally not sponsored, I just really like it. Though I do have affiliate links in my description box.)
As for gel medium, I don't really have any experience using that. I wish I could paint, but definitely don't have that skill. Sorry! Thanks for watching!
I need these...
Really good
Pens? How do you feel about lettering/calligraphy with those?
Hi...what is the difference between the broad tip granola and the supertip granola? Thanks!!!
Do we get the sheets for free ? Or do we have to buy them?
So cute
You make it look so easy ._.
Perfect video! Do you have an Etsy code for those who follow you on YT?
Can you do a how to on how to do all of the different letters of the alphabet
How do I get the practice sheets? I can't find the link. I so need these sheets. TIA!
WHAT KIND OF PAPER DO U USE
Pleade Alternative for crayola
This was really helpful!
Thank you! And thanks for watching!
do you have practice sheets where you have actual words/phrases to write over? I feel like everything looks fine and nice when I try to write each letter separately but once I put them together in a single word/sentence, it all goes to shit :(
it'd be nice to practice actual words/sentences instead of writing alphabets over and over again. It's going to come more naturally quicker that way when you don't have to keep thinking about how to write the next letter.
I've been looking for a good practice/exercise books or sheets but most of them have alphabets and very few words and never any phrases/sentences. Any suggestions?
Hello, what notepad are you using in the first part of the video and what would be the best paper to print your worksheets off of?
Hello! This notepad is just a sketchpad that I use for some videos because I go through SO much paper. But I only use either crayolas or pens that are already frayed on it, because it's not good paper for your markers/brush pens. I recommend and use HP Premium Choice Laserjet Paper for brush lettering! It's not super expensive (especially compared to expensive marker paper) but it's really smooth and you can purchase a big pack on amazon for not too much. Here's a video where I show the differences: ruclips.net/video/inhqaWHJjLQ/видео.html Hope that helps! Thanks for watching!
I have never seen anyone use the BiC Marking Highlighter Flex because it also has a brush tip like other brush pens and is cheap
Do artline stix pleaseeeee😀
Is it possible to download your worksheets?
Hey, which font you use for calligraphy? 😢 Please tell.
Well it's very nice...
Hello! It's just my handwriting after lots and lots of practice! Thanks for watching!
Still look nice for small xp
Do U know what is the intention of the Kelly Creates traceable stamps?.. Is it meant as a practice tool for callaphy?.
I'm not really sure to be honest. I kind of wondered if it's for those who like the look of lettering in their journals, but don't want to actually do the lettering. If it was to be traceable, it seems like it's kind of an expensive option since you'd only get a few words and they're pretty small so I'm not sure how practical that is! I haven't tried them though so I don't know from experience! Sorry!
wait, i just read the description.... you use an iPhone to film??
Yes! The link is for the holder I use, but I go back and forth between an iPhone and a Samsung Galaxy (only because my regular phone always gets full!)... Funny thing is, I had a nice vlogging camera that I planned to use, but my phones get better sound quality! Thanks for watching!
I filmed my first bullet journal video a couple of weeks ago and I filmed it on my canon t5i and the quality was fine, but i couldn't get the angle right at all and it was so frustrating. i think i might buy that gooseneck that you use and try it on my iPhone next time! that's so awesome thanks for sharing that
which is better to use? brush pens or supertips??
It's totally a personal preference, but I'd say super tips are easier to start with than brush pens. Thanks for watching!
Do you think you can do a tutorial on capitol letters ?
Yes - great idea! Thanks!
What's that music in the beginning of the video..? Plz tell me!
Are you there on Pinterest?
So what is the best brand to buy a pen for this type of writing?
In this video I just use a regular Crayola broad tipped marker (like from the kids section) and I think they're great for beginners! A lot of people choose the Tombow Dual Tip brush pen when they advance into more difficult lettering. I'm going to link a video here that demonstrates the differences between the two! ruclips.net/video/te_LY08wYII/видео.html Hope that helps. Thanks for watching!
i cant access the lettering sheets
