In Illustrator CS2 Creative Techniques, instructor and graphic designer Ted LoCascio shares his tricks and techniques for creating imaginative and inventive effects and projects. Ted walks viewers through the steps of creating special effects on text, adding depth and texture to illustrations, and creating buttons and professional bar charts. This training title also reveals strategies for mastering challenging projects, such as drawing clear items (water droplets and glass), 3D objects, smoke, chrome, and reflections.
"The majority of Illustrator training shows how to use the program feature by feature, but it's hard to know how to put all the steps together to create a real project. This training title shows actual workflow for real-world projects, and helps build skills for those looking to use Illustrator professionally," said Lynda Weinman, CEO of lynda.com
