Type design videos?

Hey TypeDrawers,
I've been trying to create a kind of video repertoire about type-design today (conferences, technology, etc...)
This is what I've found so far (only Youtube & Vimeo): https://playmoss.com/en/fernando-diaz,
But I'm sure there are many more interesting stuff I didn't see... That's why I come to you. Do you know any interesting videos related to type design?
I was thinking that perhaps we could create a sub section inside Type Drawers, or in a separate website. That complies (in an orderly fashion) videos for type education...
Perhaps they could be order by level (beginner, intermediate, advanced) and/or also by subject (conferences, software, languages, hinting, etc...)
What do you think? Anyone is willing to help?
Thank you!

I think Alonzo Felix did a series for Skillshare, and they should have some lettering videos, too.0

Maybe not exactly what you mean, but Seb Lester's speed videos of himself lettering are pretty fun to watch: http://seblester.tumblr.com0

This is turning into a terrific resource! Thank you all (Mark especially). Perhaps this should be turned into a category of its own, so it can be accessed from the menu bar.3

A sorted collection of videos is certainly useful, but I'm not sure a discussion board category is the right venue for it. Seems better suited for a wiki hosted elsewhere. Still, thanks for starting the thread, Fernando! I hope people keep adding to it.1

This is really cool!
Some more conference videos, hope I’m not duplicating anything:
Kerning Conference (all years so far)
Ampersand 2013
Webfontday Munich 2014
Webfontday 2012
Tobias Frere-Jones at Design Indaba 2010

Seems better suited for a wiki hosted elsewhere
As in where else? Couldn't you post a link to it as is and just let it happen here?0 -
A wiki allows for continuous, collaborative editing of a single document. Forums are better for linear discussions. I'm not saying that the listing of videos here should stop, just suggesting that someone create a wiki or Google doc with categories, links, and consistent formatting which anyone could edit.0

Diana Ovezea recently posted some long-form type design screencasts - blog at http://www.ovezea.com/one-hour-type-design-part-1/ and videos so far at

mostly about type
After all that type stuff I thought it was time for some real culture, so I ‘liked’ the performance of Bach’s Concerto for 2 Violins in D minor, BWV 1043. The two soloists are Eleonora & Eleonora, respectively my wife and daughter. This was their first public appearance together a few months ago. Perhaps the performance was not completely spot on, but I love it!

Well, I've made something, what do you think?
http://typedesignvids.tumblr.com/
(It's just a draft... the header and spacing is horrible)0 -
Yes, the name doesn't correspond with the title... Now i've fixed it...
http://typograhpyvideos.tumblr.com
Any suggestions?1 -
Seems like it should have a Type Design or Typeface Design section.1
-
What kind of videos would you upload there?
Which leads to: What do you think the sections and content should be?

Tumblr is cool but I think http://screenings.io/page/about is maybe a better venue, as they are already building up an audience, and inviting contributions
I've suggested a type design section added to complement their existing typography channel at https://github.com/TelescopeJS/Screenings/issues/6 2 -
Cool! Thanks Dave!
Is there a posiblity to have sub-sections?0 -
I would categorize the videos by Diana Ovezea above as type design.0

Here is how it's coming up!

PS: @Dave Crossland any news about Screenings?2 -
