Introduction to Adobe Illustrator for Beginners and Advanced Illustration

From 30.05 C$ /h

An illustrator is an artist who creates two-dimensional images for various companies and industries, such as fashion design, children's books, magazines, medical manuals, web sites, technical designs and advertising. The illustrator will use various techniques to create effects, like the simplicity of black and white, the richness of colour, or the use of light and shadows.

Typically, an illustrator will choose to specialize in a certain industry according to their talents and work as a freelancer. If he or she excels in sketching clothing, becoming a fashion illustrator is a natural fit. If animals, foliage or earth formations are a strength, becoming a scientific illustrator would be a fit. Being a medical illustrator would require a talent in drawing human organs or the schematics of the human body or surgical procedures. An illustrator can also work for an advertising company, drawing images for labels, advertising materials or packaging. New illustrations are always needed for wrapping paper, greeting cards, books, magazine covers and advertising.

Developing Photoshop and Illustrator skills is a must have for any designer, architect or visualising specialist. The combination of the two skills is important and would help you learn how to combine both softwares to create the best illustrations, graphics and visuals.

I am an architect, and I specialise in these skills as I create most of my visuals and graphics using these two softwares. I have been using them for over four years and am proficient in all the shortcuts and faster methods of producing the best renders.

Beginners / Intermediate or Advanced classes of Adobe Illustrator.

Adobe Illustrator is a powerful drawing software program offered by Adobe. Anyone, regardless of artistic or computer ability, can use Illustrator to draw shapes and lines, create text, or import graphics and pictures. You can use Illustrator to do a layout for a book, create a web page, and the list goes on.

I have been using Illustrator among other Adobe software for the last 15 years of my designer career and I teach them all at the University where I work since 2018.

Photoshop is an application that today sets the standard and will continue in the market thanks to its features. Many tutors may not find a starting point in teaching, but I have the technique of starting at the center of everything and that is photography. from the histogram approach, going through each corresponding adjustment and applying appropriate mathematical theory that prevents the user from having to arbitrarily use the controls in order to obtain a result. For this, it is essential to know about color, its characteristics, the representation of the same in their CMY tones, how each tone is represented with its saturation and luminosity values, this seeks to level a photo that, due to the use of RAW in the cameras or the non-calibration of their white balance, we have to perform manual techniques
