What will I learn?
Set up new documents from scratch using professional print settings such as slug & bleed, set document size etc depending on its destination ie. digital or print.
The course is very hands on and during your training course you will work with different types of text, placing & flowing text and how to set up styles for type consistency throughout a document /or series of documents. You will also work with things such as Master Pages & Grids to give your spreads exact positioning, page numbering and layouts in the documents.
During the InDesign Course you will find out how to purpose documents for both print, web and social media and understand the different file formats and processes for output. The course also covers design techniques and shows you how to make publications look both professional and elegant. So with this in mind we work with images, shades, colours and typefaces to add sheen to your designs.
