What does it take to be a graphic designer? Design is a complex art that
involves many different skills and tools, but by breaking down the core
topics and software, Justin Seeley shows how you can get your start in the
design world. First, he covers theory, including high-level concepts like
layout, typography, and color. Then it's your chance to get hands-on,
using Illustrator to build a custom logo from scratch and practice your
vector-drawing techniques. Next, Justin takes you into Photoshop, where he
shows you how to creatively adjust, repair, and retouch the kinds of
images you'll use in design projects. Last, he visits InDesign for an
overview of the layout and print preparation processes. By the end, you'll
have a better grasp of what graphic designers do and what you'll need to
learn next. It's a great jumping off point for any graphic design career.
Note: These tutorials were revised in 2016 to make sure they are current
with the latest version of Adobe Creative Cloud. Mini Bridge was retired
this year, so Justin uses alternate methods to open and organize assets.
