Illustrating Vision: Creating Vectorized Graphics for Screen Printing
Offered By: Skillshare
Course Description
Overview
The purpose of this class is to provide you with a framework for delivering meaningful illustrations to your clients that effectively communicate their vision. We’ll be working through one of my most common jobs, creating a hand-drawn vectorized graphic. Often these graphics are used to create a logo or t-shirt design. I’ll show you my process from when I first meet with a client to hear their vision all the way through to presenting them with a finished vectorized graphic. You'll see my entire workflow:
- Understanding vision in order to express it.
- Sketching drafts and finding the “aha” moment.
- Inking your illustration.
- Importing into Procreate.
- Digitally inking and vectorizing your illustration.
- Draft presentation, mockups in Photoshop, and revisions.
- Finalizing your graphic.
- Sharing how your work expresses the vision.
From the vision example presented in the class you'll be creating your own unique hand-drawn vectorized graphic. * A basic understanding of Procreate and Adobe Illustrator is required.
