It's amazing how advanced this program was.

Genuinely astonishing what they could pull out of 1mb of ram and a CPU a tiny fraction of a single core

I believe Iʻve found my no. 1 favorite instructional video on KZread. I was born in ‘88 and now use Illustrator for my job as a graphic designer. I never wouldʻve thought Illustrator 88 would have an auto trace function back then!

I want to know where this studio is located. I love the zen of the greenery and wood with the metal window frames and computer equipment. Would have been an amazing place to work.

Illusustrator 88 was in fact the second edition of this program. I had Illustrator 1.1 first. It did nearly the same but in black and white (and 99 shades of gray). I had the same setup as in the video. But didn't wear pink. I made a lot of money then because I could work faster and more accurate than anyone else.

Woha, it's amazing. I love old videos.

Imagesetter 530 was a real handy machine. Loved making my own films, daylight viewer. Print out 1693 or high quality screening 2540. Superb, miss those days all seemed so complete, from roughs to final film. Quark Express was good preferred it to pagemaker. Who remembers Typestyler, these simple programs were quite versatile. I started in graphics in 1984 and still at it today - though its got a whole lot more complicated - After Effects, Cinema 4D. Illustrator had separator for well doing film separations.

Petition to have adobe rebrand this as "Illustrator Elements". I want an elements version of illustrator..

gotta get the collector edition addon so many good cliparts

Its amazing how software developer know what they doing ?

These slow redraw/preview render times make the experience more beautiful. I wish the latest Inkscape did it like this.

Perhaps you can artificially slow down your computer by reducing the CPU speed to a minimum using some software or power setting.

I had no idea that vector tracing was available back then!

In 2024, you can type a prompt in Microsoft Paint and it does it for you.

Very interesting! :)

Watching this in 2024, designing with words is like Watching a time machine

Wow amazing

Wonder what some of the designers that used the very first Illustrator would come up with being able to use today's tools

When does this come out? It looks like such a cool program.

If only he would have deleted California in 1988 ...

omg i love this. "you don't need to know anything about postscript to print great looking art" is a big ole lie. you needed the right printer AND postscript drivers or nothing would print, and if you used a font other than Helvetia or times you had to make sure to download and bring the right postscript version of that font or it would print 72pt Helvetica

It was certainly an improvement over having to cut your color spots out with an X-acto knife.

THE WHOLE THING IS ADR

I wish these people could have known how far the bar would be lowered by this tech. Watching completely vector-animated Simpsons and Spongebob is vomit inducing. Karl Marx would be proud of the new corporate flat art 🤢
