Hi there. In this video we're going to look at doing a class exercise.

2
00:00:11,970 --> 00:00:15,380
It is based on learning the technique of data merge,

3
00:00:15,375 --> 00:00:18,155
but I'd also like you to learn a bit of creativity.

4
00:00:18,150 --> 00:00:19,980
If you're new to design,

5
00:00:19,980 --> 00:00:22,860
this might be an opportunity to have something for your portfolio.

6
00:00:22,860 --> 00:00:28,430
I'd like you to go through and research ideas for business card layouts.

7
00:00:28,425 --> 00:00:31,035
You might look at Behance or Pinterest or nice.

8
00:00:31,030 --> 00:00:33,120
There's an earlier tutorial on that,

9
00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:34,970
on inspiration for design.

10
00:00:34,965 --> 00:00:36,635
I'd like you to lay something out for it.

11
00:00:36,630 --> 00:00:38,710
There's logos in the exercise folder.

12
00:00:38,705 --> 00:00:42,895
You can use any of the images that we've used for this whole tutorial,

13
00:00:42,890 --> 00:00:44,020
if you want to use an image,

14
00:00:44,020 --> 00:00:47,180
but I'd like you to lay out that Excel file,

15
00:00:47,180 --> 00:00:49,670
that CSV files that we can produce a list of

16
00:00:49,670 --> 00:00:52,580
business cards for the different people automatically.

17
00:00:52,580 --> 00:00:54,070
Then I'd like you to send that to me,

18
00:00:54,065 --> 00:00:57,005
there's different ways, so check on the platform that you're watching,

19
00:00:57,005 --> 00:00:59,995
might be a link in the comments or some of them have

20
00:00:59,990 --> 00:01:03,800
class files that you can go or exercise projects you can put them in.

21
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:06,050
I'd love to see it on social media.

22
00:01:06,050 --> 00:01:07,960
I'd like you to go through,

23
00:01:07,955 --> 00:01:09,235
learn the technique of data merge,

24
00:01:09,230 --> 00:01:16,560
but also do something a little bit more creative on your own. Let's go do that now.
