Testimonials

Brampton Valley Homes

"Having 1-1 training with Simon was fantastic. He has an in-depth practical knowledge that I found really reassuring and no question was too ridiculous, especially when it related to something more specific to the company I work for. Illustrator is an extremely complicated tool and I feel that after a day with Simon, I have the tools build up on, with daily use of the software."

Live Online Illustrator "The course was really good. There were plenty of exercises that were supervised at the right pace. I was able to address some of the challenges that I struggle with in my day to day work."

Picotech

"Very good. Just the confidence boost that I needed! I already knew some Illustrator but didn't quite have the confidence level I have with Photoshop and InDesign or for 3D work. Very relaxed environment, atmosphere, settled in really quickly and fun too. Instructions were clear and easy to digest. If I had any questions Simon was able to help or find a solution. The take away handbook was extra useful as I can always look back or contact them directly."

Royal Society of Chemistry

"Excellent course, 1 to 1 training is the way forward... trainer was incredibly knowledgeable & accommodating. There wasn't a single question he couldn't answer, I would recommend this course to others"

Additional Course Insights

Tools you will use:

Pathfinder Tool

Are your drawing skills up to scratch? Now be honest? An artist once told me that objects he draws are simply combined shapes, basically circles and squares joined together to make up a picture. That's where the pathfinder tool comes in. You can use it to create new shapes using the shape modes section. Or you can create combined paths that you can manipulate with the direct selection tool. Go to the pathfinder window then draw two circles on the page. Ensure that the circles overlap. Select both shapes with the Selection arrow then click on the Unite button to merge the shapes.Now you have a shape you could use as a binocular viewfinder or a set of cartoon eyes.

Try the same thing but this time use the divide button in the pathfinder window. Notice that it splits the shape into 3 parts. The parts are grouped however you can use the white direct selection arrow to click on the middle section and press delete to remove it. This way you can create some interesting shapes for computer logos, background graphics to use on business cards, leaflets and other stationery.
