This class is suitable for (absolute) beginners, mediate users or advanced users of Illustrator. I will customize all classes to your level and objectives so you'll learn all you need in a short time, compared to groups lessons who have a more generic approach.

If you work on a marketing department and just want to learn basics or you are a graphic designer and want to learn more tips/tricks or you're just interested and want to refresh your knowledge. All is possible, drop me a line and I'm sure we'll find the right approach for you!
Información adicional
You don't need an account, just access to internet / your own computer with Adobe Illustrator software. (Older versions are no problem)

Acerca de mí
Creative entrepeneur, passionate about - digital - arts, like drawing with illustrator. I was a pioneer and started learning this program in 1997 and it was really hard...took me a while, because there where no courses, no internet or anyone to ask questions. So practice do make perfect and I overtimee I started to learn others this amazing programm. Teaching is in my blood and try to explain everything in a simple clear way, step by step I will guide you through the programm.
I have been working in the fashion industry for 25+ years as a footwear designer / Head design and travelled from China/Hong Kong to south Europe for production. Now I focus on teaching and try to do this with tons of energy and have my own style, which is fun and engaging.
No matter you are a beginner or a pro, I will try to help you.

The course is cutom made and I will totally adjust the information to your needs, whether you're a fashion designer, graphic designer, just interested in learning this. And even if you are a pro, I probably can learn you some new tricks.

And i love coffee - and dogs, I'm a positive person and like people, so hopefully we can have a great time together during this course. Check out the feedback from former students and you can always ask me questions.
Are you not completely sure? Contact me and we can schedule a testclass, I will give you a small discount.

Hope seeing you soon in my - online - class.

I'm a Dutch language tudor in Brussels and have teached kids, teens, refugees, politicians and others who want to learn more about this language. I'm interested in many subjects and will customize the classes to your needs. And will help you learn and speak Dutch in a fun, practical way. Homework and extra information on request, focus is on speech! And grammar is additional.
All levels.

Note: I'm from the Netherlands, so I don't speak Flemish! But for most people that's not a problem.

Retoque Fotográfico: Photoshop es conocido por sus capacidades avanzadas de retoque, que permiten eliminar imperfecciones, arrugas, manchas y otros elementos no deseados en las fotografías.

Creación de Gráficos: Se utiliza para la creación de gráficos y diseños, como logotipos, banners, carteles y otros elementos visuales. Las capas y los estilos de capa permiten una manipulación y organización flexibles.

Composición y Montaje: Permite combinar varias imágenes para crear composiciones complejas. Esta función es útil en la industria de la publicidad y el diseño.

Efectos Especiales: Photoshop ofrece una amplia gama de herramientas para agregar efectos especiales a las imágenes, como filtros, desenfoques, sombras y reflejos.

Maquetación Web: Se utiliza para diseñar elementos gráficos para sitios web, como botones, fondos y elementos de interfaz de usuario.

Trabajo con Texto: Permite agregar y formatear texto en las imágenes, con opciones avanzadas de estilo y efectos.

Corrección de Color: Ofrece herramientas para ajustar y corregir el equilibrio de color, así como para aplicar efectos de color específicos.

Illustrator is a great application that meets today's advertising needs. The focus of this course is carefully crafted, moving away from traditional teaching approaches in this discipline. It is essential to establish a knowledge link between color modes, the products that can be created with this application, integration with other applications, and different formats, such as the use of Excel spreadsheets to create interactive, mass-produced brochures with detailed information connected with markers.

Regarding integration, we will use two sister applications of Illustrator: Photoshop and InDesign for the creation of magazines.
