I am already an advertising professional but since in Asia demand of client is moreover CorelDraw so i am at home in. But since illustrator is a global standard vector software that gives accuracy of colour gamut i was interested to lean. But tutorial moreover looks like an philosophy of illustrator professionally it lacks the practical lessons about what are the basic essentials of working from scratch and how to start an execution.

I'm LOVING the info but too often he goes fast enough on a action sequence that I have to back up half a dozen times to be able to duplicate the effect on my copy of Illustrator.

This is the perfect course for me. High enough pace. To the point. Just explaining what the tools do and what you can do with them without turning it into a full tutorial. I don't want to waste time with that. I'll be the creative person, I just want to learn about the tools. :-)

There was so much material in a limited time frame that it was like drinking from a fire hose. The positive it exposed me to the capabilities so I know what to look up when I want to do something. I will use it as a reference tool.

This course is great for anybody that needs learning illustrator. As I already had experience with another graphics design software it was easy to follow along every lesson and I liked the fast way of teaching.

I gave 4 stars because the sometimes feels like the teacher had forgotten the script, I also think the instructor could use better examples, some things seemed made by an amateur not a professional graphic designer, I know it's a course for beginners, but the teacher is a graphic designer with years of experience and I was looking for much more.
