Wrapping up

I learned a lot about how to use Adobe suite in this class, which was awesome. I learned more about photoshop in the last week then I did in an entire semester long class that I took a few years ago. I had no idea how to use any of the programs six weeks ago, and now I have the fundamentals I need to teach myself more and produce at least decent work.

Design concept was definitely the hardest part of graphics for me. Once I come up with a concept I can execute it, but my grasp of concept is not as good as I would like it to do. The lectures helped a lot in figuring out color, hierarchy, typography and other elements of design. I think that I would have learned more in a full semester though. Having the lectures more broken up would have helped a lot in absorbing the information for me.

Regardless, I understand more about design now then I did before and I know a lot more about Adobe then I ever have before. This class taught me a lot and it made me want to take another design class in the future so I can continue to build on my new skills
