Designed for those with no prior experience in Adobe Illustrator, this session offers a comprehensive understanding of the program interface, the design tools, and the workflow to output illustrator documents for both print and for web. The industry standard for vector graphic output in nearly all fields of design, Adobe Illustrator is a powerful design platform for creating illustrations, logos, single page layouts, and web and interactive content. Areas covered include Adobe Illustrator program interface, understanding vector graphics and drawing tools, editing appearances and styles, working with groups and layers, live trace, the color pallet, and proper export of finished documents.
