Jessica Hische Hische grew up in Pennsylvania and became a freelance designer in 2006 after studying Graphic Design at university. She already has a wealth of successes to her name, having worked with high-profile clients such as Penguin Books and film director Wes Anderson. Some of Hirsche’s typefaces include Buttermilk, Tilda and Brioche. She works between San Fransisco,CA and Brooklyn,NY. Hische has used many different typefaces throughout her career, but one particular typeface caught my attention due to my love for filming which is the Silencio Sans typeface.  Silencio Sans was originally developed for CAA’s (Creative Artists Agency) to be used on their Friday Night Party invitation in 2014. The party’s theme was “old Hollywood” so the design inspiration came from movie title credits. The name Silencio references silent films, but this font would feel as at home in magazines, invitations, and fancy food packaging as it does on the silver screen.
