Adobe Illustrator is the application for vector-based graphics: logos, emblems, icons, infographics and illustrations can be scaled to any size without losing sharpness. This is precisely the difference from pixel editing – and the reason why brand identities are generally created in vector format.
In our Illustrator courses you learn to construct shapes and paths deliberately rather than tracing them. You work with the Pen tool, Pathfinder and alignment, design text and typography, create colour swatches and gradients and prepare your graphics for print and web. From beginner to advanced techniques, you will find the right format.
This practice-oriented training gives users a quick start to working with Adobe Illustrator. You learn how to create professional vector graphics efficiently: from the basic functions for drawing and editing vector objects, through using colours and text, to preparing files for professional reproduction.
The training also covers many exciting features of the current Illustrator version in detail, such as the efficient use of Creative Cloud, the Shaper tool, the ability to edit objects interactively using control widgets, the Puppet Warp tool and the interactive freeform gradients.
This training can be attended equally by Windows and Mac users; only minor differences may occur with keyboard shortcuts and procedures such as opening and saving.
