Chris Murdock will walk-through a small demo project that includes creating illustrations and motion graphics while sharing assets using Creative Cloud libraries and folders (assuming the wifi network is available). He’ll work with Illustrator, After Effects, and maybe a little Photoshop. If possible, he’ll ask for help creating assets from others at the meeting to demonstrate some handy project sharing tools in Creative Cloud, so bring your laptops and Creative Cloud subscriptions!
Here are a few points he’ll cover:
-
Color Palette creation and sharing using Adobe Color
-
Illustrator common tools and techniques (eyedropper tricks, scaling tools, arranging objects, hotkeys, importing assets, lines & arrows, clipping masks, text box editing, alignment tools, etc)
-
After Effects basic animation, integration with Illustrator, rendering animation with Adobe Media Encoder.
