Graphic Design Tutorial For Beginners | Graphic Design (Full Course)

TIME STAMP IS IN COMMENT SECTION.

Graphic design is all around us, in a myriad of forms, both on screen and in print, yet it is always made up of images and words to create a communication goal. This four-course sequence exposes students to the fundamental skills required to make sophisticated graphic design: process, historical context, and communication through image-making and typography. The sequence is completed by a capstone project that applies the skills of each course and peer feedback in a finished branding project suitable for a professional portfolio.

This channel provides high-quality content for free and people are not taking it seriously. If udemy offers these courses people will pay for this happily.

[tundephiliptoye]

Am glad i stumbled on the video tutorials, i want learn graphic design and so far this has been insightful. Thank you !

In depth analysis but clear, y detailed in the big picture. Perfect❄️As though going back to art school

[rychei]

I didn't realize the first 4 hours was a full course! There seem to be multiple courses in this one post. Very well done btw. I do feel I need to go apply these ideas and return to follow up and compare.

[shannonmcgill]

I am excited to learn. I moved to Africa to work with a nonprofit, but quickly realized the needs are greater than I can touch. Attempting to appeal for help at this point simply consists of Facebook posts, where even simple things like italics are not offered, and unedited photos that are most often submitted so I cannot control composition. I have so much to learn!!

[anujab]

Can we have more? This is so insightful, I just can't stop. Loving it and thanks for making this available to so many of us who want to purely learn. This is a gem!💎
