Design Surface Patterns From Scratch
Bonnie Christine
Create graphics, drawings and logos quickly and at the highest professional standard.
Adobe® Illustrator® CC can help you create everything from web icons and product packaging to book illustrations and billboards—but only if you know all the hidden features. Illustrator CC is one of the best vector graphics software programs available, designed to help you create icons, logos, drawings, type and more for the web, print, or your mobile needs. Yet the extent of the illustrator tools likely means that, if you are self-taught or just opening Illustrator CC for the first time, you're missing out on some key features that not only will bring your designs to the next level, but also streamline your workflow.
When you purchase this course you’ll gain access to an enduring resource to build your skills. You will also receive a tutorial material that acts as a reference guide as you explore the software and tackle new projects.
Join well-known software instructor Jason Hoppe to learn how to incorporate a company name into a logo, make a flyer or mock up your new website. In this 20 lesson workshop, Jason covers setting up your document to exporting your creation for use across devices and everything in between. As a boot camp, this course is structured to allow professional designers to spend about an hour or so each weekday to learn the ins and outs of Illustrator in just four weeks.

Just finish some of the tutorials , absolutely brilliant, great pace, well explained and every thing that one reviewer said (Ellen Beck) I totally agree with.
A must-watch for anyone getting started with Illustrator. I'm sure it would also be helpful for more advanced users too because as anyone who has dabbled in Illustrator knows, the tools are myriad and some are pretty hard to understand. Jason goes at the perfect pace and really shows you EXACTLY what you need to do to get an effect. I wish I'd watched this in its entirety before even trying to make logos because I'd have saved myself so much hardship!
Perfect
Excellent! Very informative class, very easy to understand, many mind-blowing tricks. Definitely would recommend it to anyone, no matter your level of knowledge. Thank you Jason.
Very informative course on Adobe Illustrator. Great instructor! I thought I knew Illustrator from what I was doing, having taken several other courses on other platforms in the past, but I learned so many more things in this course because he really went into details of the tools and what more you can do by simply using certain keys. I missed out a lot. Very glad I took this course out of curiosity after I watched his 3D course.
Awesome course, many topics, very practical, so thank you very much. One small thing missing: how to use brushes.
What a resource! This course is concise, informative, easy to follow, and Jason does a great job of keeping at a pace that doesn't drag, but is also no so fast that can't design along with him. I've been a photoshop user for years and had been nervous about the jump to illustrator, but this course made the transition easy and clear. Thank you!
All the info was super. Super easy to follow. And great to start learning. Illustrator. One thing I could see that needed adding was little projects after every class. Get something new created and then learn how it was made with the tools that were discussed. But there should be another class for sure.
Fantastic Course!
I like this course and I like Jason as a teacher. One thing I find disappointing though (with this and nearly all online courses) is the lack of opportunities to practice the skills with corrective feedback. I think if Creative Live wants to set itself apart from the competition and be on the cutting edge of online learning, they need to find ways to work engaged activities (in the form of quizzes or application modules) into their courses. I mean this as *constructive* criticism, because I’m a fan of Creative Live. :)
Its a good class but not for a total beginner. Too many instances where he doesn't mention a step and that causes frustration. I need to figure out a way around it.
What an amazing course! I am a working professional and have cobbled together most of my knowledge of Illustrator from working through different projects. I wish I would have taken this course sooner! There's so many tips and tricks that Jason teaches that would have saved me at least 20% of my time. I feel like a more well-rounded Illustrator user now after this and I'm excited to use all these skills in my upcoming projects. Thanks, Jason!
Like most of Jason's courses they are professional high quality courses. From beginner to expert. The course is packed full with the latest tips to improve your Illustrator Workflow. There are some nice examples included so you can watch the video's, do the exercises and build experiences in the program quickly.
OMG! Jason is seriously the Yoda of Illustrator. I have bought three of his courses as an experienced pro and I still keep learning things that blow my mind. Worth his weight in gold. Do not hesitate to buy
I genuinely enjoyed watching Jason's videos and learned a lot about Illustrator from him! Jason's enthusiasm about this application shows in all of his videos. He provides great information in a straightforward way, as well as how to fix common problems. I appreciate how he gives us advice on things that graphic designers will use in the future, such as shortcuts, design tips, and multiple ways to do something. If you are watching his videos, I would recommend: taking notes on everything, paying attention to which keys he's using during the video (the bottom of the screen shows which keys he's using while teaching), and skip back 15 seconds if you ever miss something.
The material is interesting, Jason is able to handle the material correctly. On the other hand, Jason presentation style has been spoiled. 1. He speaks very quickly, no space at all among the sentences. 2. Almost always moving the mouse cursor and click somewhere, the image is changing somewhere no expected. T follow the content is heavy during permanent movements on the screen. 3. He explain subsequently more times what the problem is, but the solution is delayed 2-3 minutes. Too much. 4. To follow and understand the new information is very difficult. 5. In the past before he clicked somewhere on the screen, said in advance to follow his action. In this course mostly click first, after screen change start to modify something and the menu already disappear which triggered the actual sub-window. 6. The lessons have a title, but impossible to identify which is running, If I did not start from the first sentence. Sorry to say, I was a fan of Jason, actually I can not watch him more than 20 minutes. Endre
