00:00:01,450 --> 00:00:06,580
First of all, welcome to the course, I'm glad you decided to join me for this creative journey, and
2
00:00:06,580 --> 00:00:10,480
I hope this course provides you with all the knowledge you need to feel confident in graphic design
3
00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:14,670
theory, practical application and creating real world design projects.
4
00:00:15,700 --> 00:00:20,620
The intro was a great overview of all the different sections in this class, but I wanted to break everything
5
00:00:20,620 --> 00:00:22,300
down and guide you through the sections.
6
00:00:22,540 --> 00:00:24,820
So you know the best way to go through this course.
7
00:00:25,870 --> 00:00:30,700
In the first lesson, there's a link to a resource list which provides a full list of resources for
8
00:00:30,700 --> 00:00:34,660
this class, like my favorite place to find photos, fonts and vector files.
9
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:39,730
There's also a second word document called the Project Files Document, and this contains all of the
10
00:00:39,730 --> 00:00:41,560
links to the photos and vector files.
11
00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:43,760
I use my project examples in the class.
12
00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:48,490
This list is great for those who like to follow along by doing instead of just by watching.
13
00:00:49,810 --> 00:00:54,580
There's another file in this folder called the Course Outline and Students Project Document.
14
00:00:54,910 --> 00:00:59,410
This will act as a course syllabus and outlines the projects and sections throughout the course.
15
00:01:00,010 --> 00:01:05,920
There are also student project opportunities throughout the course as optional projects to practice
16
00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:06,750
what you've been learning.
17
00:01:07,390 --> 00:01:12,370
These three files and the resources needed throughout the course can be found in one downloadable zip
18
00:01:12,370 --> 00:01:14,230
file in the course guide lesson.
19
00:01:14,230 --> 00:01:18,270
Of this course I went this course to be taken at your own pace.
20
00:01:18,550 --> 00:01:23,590
There is some order to the overall sections, but if you feel like the pacing is too slow or too fast
21
00:01:23,590 --> 00:01:28,870
and a certain area, feel free to skip a lesson or read, watch, listen to and find the right pacing
22
00:01:28,870 --> 00:01:29,850
for your skill level.
23
00:01:32,890 --> 00:01:37,900
Not all lessons are dependent on prior lessons, but it is suggested that you move in order overall,
24
00:01:38,020 --> 00:01:39,940
especially for the project sections.
25
00:01:41,540 --> 00:01:46,850
The first section of this course focuses solely on graphic design theory, we will cover typography,
26
00:01:46,850 --> 00:01:48,210
photos, layout and more.
27
00:01:48,500 --> 00:01:50,330
Take this section at your own pace.
28
00:01:50,510 --> 00:01:55,670
I decided to put most of the theory lessons in the beginning of the course so you could build that foundation
29
00:01:55,670 --> 00:01:58,910
for future practical projects that will come later in the course.
30
00:02:00,190 --> 00:02:05,860
I frequently add new lessons, especially theory lessons, as the course evolves, if the lesson has
31
00:02:05,860 --> 00:02:10,810
new at the beginning of the title, that means it's a brand new lesson for you to enjoy are one that
32
00:02:10,810 --> 00:02:15,460
has been updated recently to help make this course more updated and rich with new content.
33
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:23,860
After the design theory section, we dive headfirst into Adobe Photoshop, I start off slow for those
34
00:02:23,860 --> 00:02:28,540
at the beginner level in the program, but I move along to the practical projects and applications.
35
00:02:28,550 --> 00:02:32,590
Toward the end of the section, I move next into Adobe Illustrator.
36
00:02:32,710 --> 00:02:38,020
We start off by using the pen tool and focus on tracing several examples which will be used to this
37
00:02:38,020 --> 00:02:43,450
essential tool where we then move into the practical projects section that helps us use it, practice
38
00:02:43,450 --> 00:02:45,580
our PIN tool and other basics we reviewed.
39
00:02:47,110 --> 00:02:51,460
Once that section is over, there's a logo and branding section, logo and branding, or one of the
40
00:02:51,460 --> 00:02:54,240
most frequently requested projects for me as a designer.
41
00:02:54,430 --> 00:02:57,550
So I made sure we focused a lot on this topic in this course.
42
00:02:58,850 --> 00:03:04,070
After a few logo and branding theory classes, we hop right into a practical application where we to
43
00:03:04,070 --> 00:03:06,860
complete an entire logo and branding project together.
44
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:12,440
The last section is InDesign, where we do Practical Real World Project, why we learn the essential
45
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:13,910
tools and functions of InDesign.
46
00:03:13,910 --> 00:03:18,560
At the same time, we'll apply our typography and layout knowledge that we learned in the first graphic
47
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:19,760
design theory section.
48
00:03:21,450 --> 00:03:26,580
You'll be challenged to create a few student projects, also, there's a student Facebook group exclusive
49
00:03:26,580 --> 00:03:30,630
only for students of my courses where you can post projects and get feedback.
50
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:34,050
There's a video explaining how to join in Section three of this course.
51
00:03:34,050 --> 00:03:35,550
And I look forward to seeing you there.
52
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:43,120
At the very end, there's extra lessons of this course that will be added monthly with new techniques
53
00:03:43,330 --> 00:03:45,760
using what we've learned toward the beginning of the course.
54
00:03:46,730 --> 00:03:51,680
So now that we've reviewed the course outline, are you ready to start learning, let's learn together.
