Finally, we cover more advanced type tools like type on a path, the Touch Type tool, mastering the special effects with the Appearance panel, cool transformation and blending effects, and how to create 3D objects including text.

I’m just returning to Illustrator after not using it for many years. This was absolutely fantastic. By far the best I’ve ever watched. I realize there may have been some changes since this was published but the basics will be the same and I now feel confident that I can now tackle my projects with confidence. Thanks so much.

The way you explain the use of the tools allows us to practice in real time and the truth is that it is not necessary to pause the video, I only do it when I have deep doubts.

I learned illustrator with a tutorial in 2012 but didn't keep up with it since then. I was kinda frustrated that I forgot so many things about this software because I know it is amazing for drawings. I'm following a tutorial to draw kawaii images and I had 4 options... procreate, clip studio art, photoshop and illustrator. I thought I could give it a try again. Almost didn't click when I saw it was more than 3 hours... THANK GOD I CLICKED! I followed a lot of tutorials in my life and I have NEVER had one as great as this one! The explications are super clear, it's easy to learn, it gets to the point... WOW. This is amazing. I can't thank you enough!

Grazie! Thank you so much, David, your classes are so great and extremely helpful! I was always discouraged from using Illustrator because of its apparent complexity but you break down each tool so well without overcomplicating things. The only thing I can't understand is how you did is the shape of the light reflection on the avocado pit (in the shape builder tool section). I can do the long curves but don't understand how you did the top and bottom smaller curves. In any case, I am grateful for your classes.

Excellent Beginners Look at AI - David you have a great speaking voice and teaching attitude. I created a pattern and used it to fill a shape. But it seems that the pattern filled the entire artboard and when I move the sharp around the artboard. the pattern changes as though the shape was a mask. How can I fill a shape with a patter and have it stick?
Spectacular Job!!

I'm using Illustrator 2022. It seems like some of the commands are different between 2022 and the edition that you are using. Do you have a chart or anything with recommended settings? Example- my arrow keys are not increasing/decreasing the amount of points/lines.
David is a very nice instructor, I have watched both photoshop and illustrator courses from beginner to advance and am now a pro in both. I took the courses to spice up my UX designing career. Thanks learnit
