In this course, I will introduce you to the program and cover some essential practical exercises.

Next, I'll show how to create a small project in Adobe Illustrator from start to finish.

To help break down the process, I have structured the course into 3 main sections:

PART 1 – INTRODUCTION

SECTION 2 – ESSENTIAL PRACTICE

SECTION 3 – TEST PROJECT

CHAPTER 1 – CONFIGURATION AND LIVE TRACK
CHAPTER 2 – DRAWING
CHAPTER 3 – COLORING & ADDING TYPE
CHAPTER 4 – FINISHING AND EXPORTING TO PRINT

Along the way, we'll cover many topics, such as how to set up your document, understand how the program works, work with text in Illustrator, prepare and import images into Illustrator, and finally export your document ready to print.
