Up your script lettering game! Strengthen the foundation, sharpen the techniques, train the observation skill in the 4-week Script Lettering Bootcamp.
4 Saturdays
Full-day Workshops / 10 AM - 5 PM EST
4 Wednesdays
Observation Sessions / Start @ 7:00 PM EST
This bootcamp is tailored for fellow lettering enthusiasts who would like to further their practice in script lettering.
We will start with the absolute basic training that would introduce a new perspective in space and shape, then we dive deeper into different styles from historical roundhand to modern script lettering. Most importantly, participants will also expand their critical observation skills in order to continue producing consistent pieces on their own. Furthermore, each student will have the support to focus on the area/style they’d like to pursue and continue to develop throughout and after the bootcamp.
4 focus areas:
Strengthen the foundation
Sharpen the techniques
Train the observation skill
Develop a personal study
Why a bootcamp? How is a bootcamp different from a workshop?
I am a big fan of attending all kinds of classes myself. Although I've always learnt so much from short workshops, I especially appreciate the steady growth I see in me when I take courses that are in the longer term because I am one of those who need time alone to digest and study on my own before I learn again. This bootcamp is really an attempt of mine to create the ideal learning program I'd enjoy myself - You learn, you practice and study on your own, we discuss together, you practice and study on your own, you learn more, and repeat!!!
Why only 6 people?
With this small, intimate format, we will be able to learn more from each other’s background, interests, so together we can develop tailored support for each individual. At this moment, 6 people seem to be a manageable number to me to make sure that I can give each one of you the attention I'd love to offer!

WHAT ARE THEY SAYING?!?
"Before Ying's masterclass, I felt really unsure about working with scripts. I didn’t know where to start or how to use flourishes in a way that worked. Ying’s guidance made everything so much clearer—she showed me how to approach it and gave me the confidence to experiment.
I highly recommend her class! My work has improved so much, and now I actually enjoy creating scripts, all thanks to her."
