A design project meant less for a client, and more for myself and a handful of aspiring learners. Adobe Essentials was an independent learning experience, in which I aspired to learn more about the ins and outs of Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator. It was the goal, by the end of my research, to develop a textbook-styled booklet that explained and demonstrated all that I learned from my investigation.
Adobe Essentials is a personal textbook that demonstrates my newfound knowledge, serving as a reference tool for both myself and anyone else curious enough to learn more about the programs they use.
Putting together this time-strict booklet meant creating and following a schedule template, researching educational tools for the programs, and learning to follow the norms that other textbook templates employ. The primary instructor of the techniques demonstrated in Adobe Essentials is Deke McClelland. Deke's educational outlet can be found at https://www.lynda.com/Deke-McClelland/98-1.html
