Instructor Details

Jeremy Deighan

My name is Jeremy Deighan and I am thrilled to be a part of the Udemy team of instructors, helping others achieve their own personal goals. I have had quite a range of skills and hobbies throughout my lifetime. I really enjoy teaching and hope to provide information to others on anything and everything I know how to do.

Business

Starting my own business in 2015 has led me down some interesting and wonderful paths in my lifetime. I've learned the ins and outs of management, marketing, accounting, sales, and other aspects of a business environment. The skills I've learned through podcasting, blogging, creating videos, and marketing is something I will carry the rest of my life into many other endeavors.

Art and Design

I have an extensive background in different forms of art and design. I have an Associate's Degree in Computer Animation and I've worked with various production houses to create awesome content. Adobe Photoshop has been a staple of my arsenal since I was 16 and I still use it faithfully to this day.

I also have a history in live visual arts, specifically lighting design for music events, festivals, theaters, and corporate gigs. My passion for the visual arts has helped me become a master in understanding lighting, color theory, and composition.

the course was okay but I thought it would also teach me how to use canva. Then at the end it says as a BONUS for Students Only I get any other course by the same teacher for only $10,-. But when I click to get there this does not work and I have no way of communicating this to the support because the Alex Chat does not understand me. So now I have not learnt how to use Canva and can't use the bonus either. So I am very unhappy because I have no way to get help because the automatic chat bot does not understand my problem.

I have taken 5 courses on Grafic Design. The courses had content for 12 h and they build a lot of designs. But after the courses i feel completely lost. This course and Volume 1 didn't flood me with tools and menues, it pointet out the Grafic Desing Theory and showed some really good examples. This was pure Gold - unlike the other courses where the knowlage get applied but don't explained very good. This course and volume 1 are pure Gold.

Very well laid-out course. This is perfect for someone without any experience. Thank you!

By Desmond Lai on 2/11/2018

The content is good. The instructor can explain the concept using examples in Canvas. It would be even better if the instructor can provide some exercise for students to practice the concept in the course.

By Sally Apokedak on 4/6/2016

Another good course from this instructor. I loved learning about all the thought that goes into the images I see. And I got some good ideas for making my own images. In the end, I'll probably hire a graphic designer to do my web page and my logo if I ever start my own company, but even then, I'll be able to judge their designs better, now that I've taken this course. I really enjoyed it. Well worth the time and money spent.

By Anand Kumar on 3/19/2016

This was the most useless course so far ! I wonder why is it allowed here ?

By Charles Gilmore on 1/19/2016

Could've been a lot better if you see this move on to the next...

By Tracee Washington on 10/11/2015

I've read books on graphic design, but the concepts never quite "clicked" where I could apply them. However, between this course and Mr. Deighan's other course of Graphic Design Theory (Vol. 1), I feel like I have a great understanding of the fundamentals of graphic design. The lectures are short (many about 5 min or less) with information that's presented in a clear manner and supported with multiple examples so you can see the concept in action. Great course!

By Guillermo Rubio on 7/24/2015

This and the first Volume really takes you to the whole theory on design, a lot of golden nuggets and principles found. I recommend this to everyone looking to make graphics on Canvas or as a Digital Marketer.

By Natasha on 6/30/2015

After watching Volume 1 I immediately went and picked up Volume 2 also. Jeremy once again does an amazing job providing graphic design theory in a way that's easy to understand, yet comprehensive. His Canva Course series works so well together that I would recommend everyone pick it up and save yourself time and money when creating images or graphics of your own!
