SIGN PAINTERS DOCUMENTARY REVIEW

SUMMARY: We’re wrapping up our pre-season with a review of the documentary Sign Painters (2013, directed by Sam Macon and Faythe Levine). How much did we swoon for all the hand-lettering? How did we feel about this film highlighting dozens of white dudes? We talk type vs. lettering, work-for-hire, function vs. aesthetic and peak chalkboard. Signpainters Instagram, The Revival of America’s Hand-painted Sign Industry by Ester Bloom for the Atlantic, Charlene’s painted window for CAKE Plus-Sized Resale. Heads up - This is the last episode of our pre-season. We'll be back soon with a full Design Gossip season where we discuss things like gender in design, taking the leap from corporate to creative solopreneur life, craftivism and lots of shop talk. Stay tuned.

PRESEASON TRAILER

We’ve been working on an in-depth, bespoke design podcast series for a while now… But then the world turned upside down with a pandemic which shall not be named. So we decided to condense and fast-track our podcast for you into preseason minisodes. We’re leaning into quarantine lifestyle and binge-watching and binge-reading some of our favorite design shows, documentaries, books and articles, and then we’re gossiping about them right here. Don’t worry, our bigger podcast is still in the works, but in the meantime consider this a taste of things to come.
