Course Description
Have you ever stuck with your design project in Illustrator, because you wanted to apply a certain effect, but it was just too confusing?
And aren’t you tired of trying to figure them out on your own, because the more you try to understand them, the more overwhelming they get?
If you are like me and like simple solutions to things that seem too complicated to make real use of them, then you will love this course.
Because inside you will find only the practical, straight- to-the point yet thorough answers to all your questions about Illustrator’s effects.
Take a look at just a humble fraction of the Illustrator goodies covered by this course:
- More than 50 (yes, fifty!) effects explained in a thorough yet easily digestible manner, so you can use what you learn straight away.
- Tons of supporting material, including design files for you to follow along and learn in the most efficient way.
- All the sections and lectures are neatly organized so you can jump straight into that particular lesson that interests you at the moment. You don’ need to go through all the lectures one by one to benefit from the course.
If you want to take your Illustrator knowledge up one level (or even two levels up) and finally learn all the effects that will make your designs and design skills stand out on the market, you have to give this course a shot.
And I know that many designers are put off by Illustrator thinking that it’s too complicated to learn.
Let me tell you something: It’s easier to learn than Photoshop!
You just need the right instructions. And you will get them in this course
So if you want to know how to
- Create amazing 3D effects in Illustrator (I admit, they look awesome!)
- Transform shapes so they get that professional hand-drawn feel, even if you don’t how to draw
- Or how to stylize your designs to give the modern look
Enroll in the course.
Note that this course is not for absolute Illustrator newbies.
This course is a perfect fit for you if you already know some things about the software. You already know how to use the essential tools, layers etc.
And in case you don’t like the course, you can always get your money back.
You are fully protected by a 100% money back guarantee.
And no one will ask for a reason.
Now is the time to finally discover everything that Illustrator offers… and hides.

Great course to learn about some of the not so obvious parts of Illustrator. This is a simple and short course, focusing only on the important stuff. Instructor seemed quite knowledgeable, though the audio was a little hard to hear at some points.

Excellent! This is beyond the brush up I expected. Already learned so many things above what I learned in an intro course. The pace is good and the instructor encouraging

"Every Adobe Illustrator Effect Explained" is a short and very helpful course. I now know a lot more about Illustrator effects. Dawid managed it to structure the lessons well and make them vary in content. Thank you so much, Dawid.

The cours was a bit slow. Most of the time it was just going through the filte one by one which I could do myself alone.
