So far I am really enjoying the course, it offer a simple and straight forward approach to making your own book. For those that have not made a book before, it offers a great starting point.
The screen is not clear. She identifies issues with loading images but doe not sound confident in how to address them. It seem smore like good luck than good management.
Bookify is simple version of BookWrigh. If you want to learn to create a photo book, direct go to bookWrigh section, you can learn all function there. Bookify section is too cumbersome. Speaker spent lots of time to comment on her own photos and repeat whole process until whole book's design done.
The instructions are clear and you know she is aware of some of the problem that may occur. There is a small language barrier. However, I just repeat the sections.
Excellent course! After this course I was able to work with Bookwright and create my own photo book. Couldn't be more pleased with the course. Thank you!
Blends the technical controls with the aesthetics of design and sequencing.
This is complete step by step course that takes you from beginning to print! I love all the details and information presented in this course, I stopped it several times to go back over the work. A lot is covered in this course, I was not able to do it in one sitting due to other obligations. If time is not an issue one can have a book done in a few hours!
Very clear introduction
