What You Will Learn?

  • Starting as a newbie designer can be a bit overwhelming. There are tools to learn, techniques to perfect and skills to master. As a designer looking to improve especially in flat illustrations and sketching techniques, I started sketching pictures and turning them to Illustrations in Adobe Illustrator..
  • I also used the technique once in a digital poster and the client loved the end result..
  • In this class, I will take you through the process I use to arrive at such digital illustrations. All you need for this class is a pen and paper, Adobe Illustrator and a zeal to continue practicing and never stop learning..
  • Pictures are an amazing source of ideas. It is a pretty decent method of improving sketching and illustrating skills. In this course, you will be taken through the process of turning a picture into a digital illustration using Adobe Illustrator. The final output would be a digital illustration rendering of the image..
  • This course would cover the following:.
  • - Sketching basics: How to sketch a picture outlining only the important parts.
  • - The importance of creating outlines and variations of illustrations.
  • - Tips and tricks in Adobe Illustrator.
  • - Manipulating shadows to create a near replica Illustration.
