I'm only 23 minutes in, and I perceive you are a great teacher. Thank you! To me, unless I have a teacher, Affinity is a challenge to learn. It's like no other. Open a blank page, with no manual, and begin clicking. 😂 Thank you for this video! My design life just got easier!!!

Best instruction video I've seen in a long time. Wish I'd seen this a month ago when I started my journey. Would like to see a video that could help importing jpg black and white line art into AD and then how best to create Celtic Knots, from simple Trinity to complex designs. So many options and hard to tell which is the best; pen tool or shapes, when to add or subtract, or when to use Shape Builder or compounds. No one addresses these as they don't involve many of the graphic tools that AD offers. But, still you clarified so much in the crash course.

@TechnicallyTrent 4 ай бұрын

Thanks for the comment, @jacisiehl5002! Yes, black and white raster lineart provides a particular challenge. One thing you can try is converting it to vector with Creative Fabrica's free tool. The results can be hit or miss, but it is worth a shot: www.creativefabrica.com/features/vectorize-image/ref/2746202/ I show how to use it, along with coloring line art with Vector Fill and raster painting, in this video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ms2imbSVmZuqemw.html

Typography is something I would like to make my niche, I have wondered through programmes such as Kittl, They're brilliant it does most for you, but they become a dime a dozen and there is no way to manipulate to your own unique style. Could you recommend some beneficial videos for a beginner wanting to focus on typography in Affinity please?

For typography, I just released a video on the Artistic Text tool: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/n7qhg9mKy7GydXk.html I will be releasing a video on the Frame Text tool in a few days. I focus more on how the tools work than actual typography concepts. But I do want to create a general Typography 101 video about how type can be used with graphic design. Stay tuned!

The colour picker has also become my favourite tool, I can just simple snap Affinity designer 2 the side of my screen. Have say a web search of images of background images snapped on the other side for inspiration. I can simply go over to my browser window and pick a colour that I like and then use it on the random design I'm working on to get the hang of Affinity designer 2. Loving this very thorough tutorial so far. Learnt alot already.

Oh boy, that's a good point 🤣 copying an image into the program i.e. using paint (since everyone has paint to use as a comparison) using the snipping tool just to extract a colour no longer feels adequate lol.
