00:00:06.920 --> 00:00:10.919
Hi, there. My name is Dan and I'm a graphic designer

00:00:10.919 --> 00:00:14.610
and an Adobe certified instructor full in design.

00:00:14.610 --> 00:00:16.950
I'm lucky enough to help Adobe directly

00:00:16.950 --> 00:00:19.440
with a lot with their help videos on their website.

00:00:19.440 --> 00:00:21.870
Also, I get to speak at their annual conference,

00:00:21.870 --> 00:00:23.130
which is Adobe Max,

00:00:23.130 --> 00:00:25.020
which is a very cool Conference.

00:00:25.020 --> 00:00:30.090
In this course, we are going to learn how to use Indesign to our really good level.

00:00:30.090 --> 00:00:33.665
Now Indesign is absolutely one of the essential tools for

00:00:33.665 --> 00:00:37.970
anybody that wants to work in desktop publishing or graphic design.

00:00:37.970 --> 00:00:41.190
Now this course is for complete beginners.

00:00:41.190 --> 00:00:43.250
There is no need for any experience in

00:00:43.250 --> 00:00:46.470
Indesign or graphic design or desktop publishing before.

00:00:46.470 --> 00:00:48.560
We'll work through real-world projects,

00:00:48.560 --> 00:00:52.355
starting with a simple and easy flier on to get us started.

00:00:52.355 --> 00:00:55.805
Then we'll work through a longer brochure, company newsletter,

00:00:55.805 --> 00:01:00.589
will make business cards and take control of a longer document like an annual report,

00:01:00.589 --> 00:01:01.880
we'll work with color,

00:01:01.880 --> 00:01:03.440
picking your own colors,

00:01:03.440 --> 00:01:05.240
and then working with corporate colors.

00:01:05.240 --> 00:01:09.605
Together we'll explore how to choose and use fonts like a professional.

00:01:09.605 --> 00:01:11.810
Working with images, we'll re-size,

00:01:11.810 --> 00:01:16.040
adjusting crop, throughout the course there are projects that you can complete.

00:01:16.040 --> 00:01:17.930
You can use them just to practice,

00:01:17.930 --> 00:01:21.785
you can also use them if you want to add them to your portfolio.

00:01:21.785 --> 00:01:24.230
It's part of the course as well. This is exercise falls,

00:01:24.230 --> 00:01:25.400
so you can play along.

00:01:25.400 --> 00:01:27.275
At the end of every video,

00:01:27.275 --> 00:01:29.540
I save my file to see where am at.

00:01:29.540 --> 00:01:31.100
That can be really help for you,

00:01:31.100 --> 00:01:32.420
if you're getting a little bit lost,

00:01:32.420 --> 00:01:34.295
you can compare yours with mine.

00:01:34.295 --> 00:01:35.705
Now, I'm gonna give you

00:01:35.705 --> 00:01:39.740
every single design tip and trick that I've learned over the years.

00:01:39.740 --> 00:01:43.820
Because my goal is for you to get to the end of this video series

00:01:43.820 --> 00:01:49.110
and have all the skills necessary to make beautiful in design documents.

00:01:51.230 --> 00:01:55.665
This is my Blue Steel Poles for a while look.

00:01:55.665 --> 00:01:59.550
Otherwise, I finished the video and rush towards camera to turn it off,

00:01:59.550 --> 00:02:01.840
and I come to relax.
