PUSH Workshop: Professional Design Techniques/InDesign Workshop with Scott Citron
Are you an InDesign user who’s looking to get more out of InDesign? If so, InDesign CS3/4: Professional Design Techniques will take you to the next level of this powerful application. Designed for professionals who want to work faster and smarter.
Coming to PUSH Workshops/Creative Placement on August 21, 9-4:30. Tickets are $275 before August 17, $325 after.
Of course, no InDesign workshop would be complete without learning a few great Photoshop and Illustrator tricks to add to your design repertoire. We’ll explore:
• Smart objects
• Smart filters
• Placing PSDs in InDesign
• Improved masking in PS
• Re-coloring artwork in Illustrator
• Understanding the improved Appearance panel in AI
To make the most out this workshop, attendees are encouraged to bring a laptop. Instruction will be done using Adobe Creative Suite 4, although most tips apply to earlier versions. If you don’t own InDesign, please download a 30-day demo at Adobe.com.
