Resumen del concurso

We are a Swiss organic farming non-profit organisation. For web and print purposes we need on top of our corporate font (Futura) a script font. We are looking for something which could have been written on a blackboard with irregular filling, freehand drawn, authentic.

In other words, we need a good typographer/calligrapher to develop an exclusive handwritten, blackboard/chalk/crayon like font with special characters (german, french, spanisch + quotation marks etc..).

------------------------
Details:

After intensive research, we decided that the style we are looking for is close to the font “Monster unleashed” (http://www.dafont.com/monster-unleashed.font).

It could have been quite an ideal fit.
We like its “blackboard / charcoal” effet and the dynamic gesture of the handwriting. This font would make a nice contrast with our corporate font : Futura (On the website we are using Lato for its readabilitly).

But there are 3 problems with this font:
1. It does not include special characters.
2. The author of the font did not answer our requests for a commercial licence and additional fonts.
3. This font is very popular and is used on too many websites. We need something exclusive.

This is why the mission would be to draw a font in this style but NOT identical. We need an exclusive font. So a copy of this font would not be accepted, also for copyright reasons.

We need also a perpetual licence for web, print and advertising. The font also should be delivered in version which can be used on the web.

Comentarios del empleador

“Among all the Typographers who did participate in this contest, John was indeed a real pro! I had no doubt that he would succeed in delivering a perfect script font. And he did. He is VERY serious and shows a high level of expertise. I will certainly work with him on variations of this font. Thanks John!! ”

      btw.. unnatural is by an handwriting font, when 2 consecutive characters, similars are.. that means eg. if we write "swiss" the two ss are the same! But thats my opinion!

    I looked through the submissions and was shocked to find out that there are so many thieves. A lot of submissions aren't original work, but rather very popular free fonts: #35, #47, #56, #57, #65, #66, #67, #81 (and all his submissions), #95 (and all his submissions). Users Odinus, johnvargasb and ImagoFX made their entries invisible from other freelancer, so I can't check their legitimacy. On the other hand, I can assure you that my submissions were made by me only for this contest. Good luck!

      agree.. its really disapinting when we see that others want to fake/fool the ch. with a cheap/free font. They dont know what kind of hard work is to develop, and to programing an otf file. How are working ligatures, or what is kerning.. to see these to win is realy dissapointing.

      Yes, and what they do not or choose to ignore, is that they can be sued for it. I see it all the time on here and not only does it make them liable, but if the person who bought it used it as their own intellectual property, they would also be liable.

    I can demonstrate originality and genuine work of my authorship. I have serious experience as Type Designer and calligraphy/lettering artist. My submissions are hidden, therefore I need to protect my work. #extended #sealed
