Course Description

In this course you will learn how to use the professional vector drawing software Affinity designer ver 1.5. You will also learn how to create a responsive website design and redesign it in RocketCake, so to export it to the web. You will learn how the tools in Affinity Designer work and I will go through several samples. If you want more samples, you can leave a request and I will see what I can do for you. The course will continue to change, so stay tuned.
Vector art is usefull for creating designs for websites and for printing purposes. Traditional drawings will pixelate when enlarged. Vector art will always look sharp.
If you want to learn Affinity designer, please enroll.
This course is made using Affinity designer for Windows, but there are hardly any differences between the Windows and Mac version.
For this course you will need Affinity Designer. You can download and install the trial version, but the regular version is verry affordable.
One of the projects will be about designing a website. In this project you will also need RocketCake (available for Windows and Mac). It is free to download, but has also a paid professional edition.

Who this course is for:
  • This course is for starting illustrators
  • This course is for website designers
  • Thia course is for graphical designers

Hi, my name is Daniel. I am a physician but also a true allrounder. I made my first 3d model when I was just 12 and created my first simple 3d game at the age of 13! In the following 20 years I worked with plenty 3d and 2d software and game engines. The past 10 years I worked as a freelancer and made 3d artwork for universities, other game designers and companies using Modo. I am a self learner, using online video course websites like Udemy.
I also am a composer and sound designer. See my big course on synthesizers (Serum, Harmor, Synthmaster) and become one yourself!
Finally I also do a lot of illustration work. My favourite software for vector artwork is Affinity Designer. Check out my course!

Great! Thanks.

Good, so far

By Alexander Martinez-Kocmann

As an introduction for beginners it was very good. It gives you enough knowledge of the tools and enough examples to get started and experiment yourself without feeling lost. I did miss perhaps having a few exercises to test skills, especially towards the end of the course when you're familiar with the tools and the settings. I would have preferred to spend time on exercises than the time the course used showing how things worked in Rocket Cake.
