I really liked this course, even though I don't have Adobe Illustrator I do have photoshop & Inkscape . The content you showed us gave me some new ideas to apply to my designs to make my work flow faster. Thankyou
David does a great job in showing us how to place an image in Illustrator and use the tools to design and create an image to our liking. It is a good length and to the point. I like that. I’m new to Illustrator so I will need to work on some of the steps to become comfortable with them but I was able to keep up with David through the course.
An extra win for me - I use Power Point a great deal and was also taking notes on David’s use of color on his lecture slides – very impactful.
Thanks David for offering this course.
I liked the course but was disappointed that the video was blurry so that as David was doing things on the screen it wasn't clear. I also felt he went very fast. I am a beginner and if I hadn't already done some of the Adobe free training I think I would have been totally lost. No replies to my questions :-(
David is very clear explaining and very helpful!
The course was well organized and I was able to follow and learn from it quite well!
