    Hi guys! A few people have mentioned the problem with the camera angles in this video and I totally agree with you. It was my first video and I had some trouble with my over-the-shoulder camera cutting out. Recently I've made some more lettering videos and I think the production quality is better. (But I still have lots to learn, so please continue to comment). Check out my channel to watch the newer videos or click the link to watch my holiday greeting card tutorial: ua-cam.com/video/hoyc9z07u8I/v-deo.html

    Please do more of these Shayda. I would especially like to know how you are able to draw it out as a skeleton and then add the thickness to it. That is my biggest challenging when drawing cursive letters.

    It would be helpful to have your camara angled above or to the side. Could not really see what you were really doing. I see from other comments that you have fixed that...The ones from the side was very helpful, thanks.

      It's a bad habit she picked up when she learned first how to write, that her teacher should have corrected but didn't. Lots of people hold their pen like this.

I followed your instructions. I did calligraphy style because it's so beautiful! and easy... but the whimsical block lettering is also beautiful... thanks again.:-)
