Adobe Illustrator T-Shirt Design for Merch by Amazon (Udemy.com)

This course gives the basics of using Illustrator which is helpful because it gets straight to the point. However, the course is very fast and is rushed through to its entirety so expect to stop and replay several times especially with setting up the board and getting the layers together as some areas are glossed.

I was already familiar with most of the Adobe Illustrator tutorials, but I was really interested in how to do Merch by Amazon. It seems there was only one video on that specific topic, and all of the Adobe tutorials were pretty basic. I don't think it was worth the whole amount I paid, but it was helpful for a few things. Overall, it was a good course.

Michael is very engaging and covers topics that were very enlightening. He focused on the exact things that I wanted to learn more about like how to place an image, creating text shadows, how to create a background layer so that the white text stands out in contrast. I thought this course was very valuable and worthwhile!

Sometimes Michael goes a little too fast; or doesn't speak every thing he does. I've had to rewind back a few seconds so I can visually catch what he's doing. I've also had to watch other YT videos to figure out what he is doing. I still have questions on what to do after taking this course! A little frustrating.

Good instruction but a little fast pace for me when moving about in illustrator. Would help if when clicking about to zoom in to enable the viewer to see where exactly you are clicking when working in illustrator for a beginner like me. Overall, good information and engaging, enjoyable instructor.

The course was very good and I would take additional courses by the author. A few things to consider..... It would be helpful when explaining the tools, the author could speak a tad slower and be sure identify things clearly, giving time for the student to find and process. It is evident that the author is very comfortable with the program, but the pace and the clarity need to just a bit slower.... perhaps leave a "smidgen" of time for the student to find the tool and the make the connection as the author explains application...in lessons 11, 12 and 15 this would be helpful. Also be careful when introducing new things, like Ctrl Z in lesson 11 or 12. Not a criticism, just constructive insight for those who are totally new to Illustrator. Otherwise, it was a great starting point and hopefully you will publish additional courses for Illustrator. On my was to try to create a T-Shirt for Merch. Thank you!!!!!

I have been struggling to understand how this program works watching videos but having no clue as what they where talking about. He made it easy now i feel i can go watch these other videos and know what they are talking about. thanks so much for taking the time to make this video.

As and experienced Illustrator user I found a few tricks that I was missing that should help me in my efficency. I wish this course existed a year ago before I started using illustrator, it would have taken the brutal learning curve out of the process.

This course is great for anyone that is just beginning to learn Adobe Illustrator for the purpose of designing T-Shirts. I had been doing some designing(2 Shirts) and they were text based, but I learned some things that definitely could have made it easier for me from the start.

Very good course for getting started with Merch by Amazon. Mike teaches in a way that is easily understood. By the end of the course, you will have an understanding of how to start with Illustrator as it relates to t-shirt designs with MBA. Thank you!
