"Nobody tells people who are beginners..."

I had seen this little typography video a little while ago. I can understand why people get really inspired by it. Today I saw it posted on an email list for contra dance callers, with the comment that "He's talking in particular about storytelling, but his comments apply to any creative endeavor, such as calling dances."

I like the line about your taste being killer. Once I get back into calling, that will be the one going through my head, I'm sure.

P.S. I also have a new appreciation for this video, because I'm kind of getting into all things letterpress related, typography included. Yeah Caslon.
