Course details

Illustrator on the iPad has arrived. Adobe has reimagined their popular desktop design and illustration package to leverage the unique capabilities of the iPad. In this course, Nigel French highlights what this easy-to-use—and surprisingly powerful—app has to offer, showing graphic designers and illustrators what’s possible with type and type effects on the iPad. Nigel focuses on what users can accomplish when working exclusively within Illustrator on the iPad. He delves into simple and complex type effects, demonstrating the following features: the Shape Builder and the Combine Shapes options, clipping masks and compound paths, color and opacity, type on a path, and the exciting repeat options. Tune in to get up to speed with the Illustrator app, so you can quickly start creating great-looking type on your tablet.

    I thought Nigel did an excellent job on this course. I didn't realize everything you could do with typography using the iPad Illustrator. If you're new to typography and Illustrator, I recommend this course before the desktop version. It can be easier to understand from a simple way of creating these designs and then move to a more advanced version.

    This being a new app, I had no idea what some of the things referred to were, and I have been using illustrator for desktop for many years.
