    Illustrator Unleashed: From First Vector to AI-Powered Pro

    Course Overview

    Illustrator Unleashed takes you from a completely blank artboard to confident, professional vector design work. You'll start with the fundamentals: installing Illustrator, the workspace, every core tool, panels, guides, and shortcuts. From there you'll master the Pen Tool and real drawing skills, uncover the hidden features and time-saving workflows working designers actually use daily, and build a genuine eye for color, accessibility, and the common mistakes that separate rough work from polished work. You'll then move into 3D effects, trendy visual styles like glassmorphism and neumorphism, and Illustrator's newest AI-powered features, Generative Recolor, AI-generated vectors, and the Turntable effect among them. The course closes with real-world projects: designing a logo from a grid up, vectorizing images, building responsive text treatments for the web, and constructing a fully wrapped, realistic 3D packaging mockup using Illustrator's own 3D tools.
