Infographic Elements from Scratch in Illustrator

Infographics are an effective way to provide a visual representation of information. In this beginner-friendly class, Jason Hoppe will take you through image-making techniques in Illustrator to use when building Infographics.  You'll learn about:

• Common icons used in infographics and how to create them 
• Creating patterns and effects 
• Using the shape builder tool 

You’ll then use the elements you created in a simple info graphic that is flexible enough to use in multiple ways. This class comes with an Illustrator file containing all the graphics created in the class. A great bonus that you can customize and use in your projects, in addition to what you create on your own.
