Adobe Illustrator

Call 1-877-TRAINING(872-4646) Why would anyone need Adobe Illustrator Training? Adobe Illustrator is primarily used to create what is called “outline art”. Outline art, often referred to as a vector graphic, is called such because the user simply draws and outlines a shape, assigns it a fill and the graphic design application fills in the shape as a solid. These features provide graphic artists in marketing or advertising what they need to design and publish motivating graphical enhancements to any ad or logo. You can find examples of art designed using Adobe illustrator by just looking around - think of a typical company logo, a starburst shape in an advertisement or customized lettering on virtually any commercial product. Due to its flexibility and customizable features, Adobe Illustrator has become the de-facto standard for illustration design for all avenues – marketing, web graphics and print design.

Whether you are a graphic artist creating multimedia graphics for web pages, a marketing mastermind developing new graphical fonts or pamphlet publisher designing new layouts for future publications, learning the features of Adobe Illustrator will bring you to dizzying heights in graphic design!
