I was asked by several people to actually demonstrate writing with the CJ Roundhand style I featured in a previous video. It's a simple presentation to show the "hand" (what written styles are called) clearly and without editing distractions, enhanced only by various cuts of music.
Since this is a FAQ, here's a list of the pens used in the video:
- Pilot Metropolitan M (silver zigzag), Noodler's Black ink.
- Pilot Prera (clear demonstator body) with an EF nib taken from a Pilot Penmanship, Rohrer & Klingner Scabiosa ink
- Pilot Metropolitan F (gold), Noodler's Brown ink.
Paper: Rhodia #18 (A4) lined (7 mm) with margin
Also: if you compare the grain on the board I'm writing on versus the edge of the paper, you can see I tilt the paper 55-60 degrees counterclockwise, which is somewhat exaggerated for a rightie. So, left-handers, don't worry if you have to tilt the paper to get the slant right (although it'll likely be clockwise). Do what works and is comfortable.

Thank you for this. Over this past year, I’ve made it a point to give respect to the art of handwriting, and I have gone from chicken scratch (as I have always had for I never felt I could produce the beautiful handwriting I have always seen) to now being proud of my legible hand. I’ve even bout myself a relatively nice fountain pen and ink that I love, and suites me perfectly I must say. So thank you for helping to keep this art alive and available for all to learn and pass on. For if we don’t, I feel that technology will make it easier and easier to let it become a thing of the past. Without need, without care, without passion, and without love and respect. (Apologize for the dramatic nature of this comment, but I have discovered so much of myself in becoming passionate in my writing. I have always heard the phrase “The pen is mightier than the sword”, and I got the meaning, but I’ve discovered another meaning in this journey. I can’t thank the ones keeping this art alive and assessable enough. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.)

I'm trying to find my 'groove' and this seems to be a great synthesis of 'old school' and modern writing. I'm using writing examples from Ames, Spencerian, Champion, and Palmer scripts to get the letter shapes I like. One thing, though- I have an overpowering urge to use the 'long s' in words, using the 'normal s' as a finishing letter! I got in the habit of doing that in my journal- kept in admittedly very bad cursive- and it's hard to break. Thank for this series of videos- I'm sure I will be referring to them often! (JS- 50 year old learning new tricks :D)

Wahed Tinwala it's a sort of yes-and-no situation. No matter the style of handwriting, there is a speed where it starts becoming undisciplined and a faster speed still where it is illegible. Where that point is depends on the user.

Interesting. So this is basically my standard cursive but 1] don't close the p 2] go down but dont swoop back up for qyjfgz but you can swoop back up for p 3] don't worry about connecting capital to lowercase. Simple enough. Can i just say, using these few observations has turned my standard cursive writing into something straight out of a history book! Thank you very much good sir! And i do want to ask a question. Should i do the standard r as seen here in this video, or should I continue to do it the way i do my r's? I just do them like an n but i dont go down as far at the end before swooping up to the next letter.

So I've learnt there's English Roundhand which is akin to Copperplate and fits the letterform? I'm guessing the difference is using a firm nib, not shading on downstrokes, and not using an oblique nibholder? I was initially confused b/c there's another alphabet called foundational which is sometimes called roundhand :)
@CJCS
@CJCS 5 жыл бұрын
There is a lot of variation on the terms, but generally speaking: English Roundhand is basically the cursive from the mid-17th to early 19th centuries; Engrosser's script was the carefully written version of Roundhand used for more formal documents (not so say you couldn't do some fancy Roundhand that would put engrosser's script to shame); Engraver's script was basically the engraved and/or perfected realization of engrosser's script, which was typically engraved on copper plates which led to...; Copperplate being the flexible steel nib formaized version used for calligraphy based on the engraved forms. Roundhand is written, as it's a cursive longhand; Engraver's script and Copperplate are carved/drawn shapes; and Engrosser's script is sort of between those two: it's sort of written and sort of drawn. In terms of thin and thick lines, that's a function of the writing tool. Quills were often cut with a very small squared or oblique end (for longevity -- between 0.25 and 1.0 mm) that would give that variation, though pointed and somewhat flexible quills were also common as were pointed and stiff quills (which, in my opinion, are the easiest to cut). When metal nibs arrived in the 19th century, the result was a lot like what we have today: stiff, monoline pointed nibs, square-edge nibs, and pointed nibs of various degrees of active line variation. But like I said, the various terms are fluid depending on your sources. It's not like there is some long-standing academy issuing proclamations what names each script was to be called. It all just sort of evolved in that same messy way that the English language does. (Never mind that calligraphy and typography aren't always totally in sync with what they call things.)

+nathaniel sharabi I'm not sure that the idea of cursive being faster is necessarily correct. Personally, I print legibly faster than I can write cursive I can read. Mastery will gain you some speed -- it's the nature of getting good at something -- but the goal with writing should always be legibility...otherwise, what's the point? You'll also notice that since I don't loop my lowercase g, j, y, or z, I don't necessarily connect ALL my letters in a word.
