Introduction to Adobe Illustrator 2020

Adobe Illustrator is the leading graphic design tool. The industry-standard vector graphics software is used by millions of designers and artists to create everything from gorgeous web and mobile graphics to logos, icons, book illustrations, product packaging, and billboards. In addition, users can create freehand drawings, or trace and recolor graphics to turn them into works of art.

Since Illustrator is a vector-based design software, artwork can be scaled down for mobile screens and all the way up to billboard size, while always looking crisp and beautiful.

Illustrator launches, saves, and renders effects extremely fast and allows users to reuse vector graphics and quickly access unlimited fonts. Illustrator works seamlessly with other Creative Cloud apps like Photoshop, InDesign, XD, and After Effects.

In this course you will learn the following:

How to Incorporate a Company Name into a Logo
Create a Flyer
Mock-Up a Website Design
Add Effects
