Inspirational even for a veteran designer

Even though I have been a graphic designer for decades, I learn new things in the classes and find the assignments inspirational. It is a great course to get fresh new approaches to my design work.

This is a very good course!

This is a very good course! It is extremely easy to follow and the instructor seems to be very knowledgeable with the program. I will probably watch it again to get more acclimated to the differences between Adobe Illustrator on the desktop and the iPad app.

Don't miss out on these courses!

When I started these courses 5 months ago, I had no experience in graphics but thanks to Martin’s lessons and his advice, I've really learnt a lot. Each course is well organised and clearly explained and this has definitely given me confidence of developing the skills I needed.
Besides, I love the fact that he dedicates his time to review our works and gives a lot of precious insights.
I'm really happy to be part of this group.

Great instructor!

Great instructor!
Martin is an excellent instructor. His class is well organized, with plenty of useful examples to help students understand features. The only thing that I hope for improvement is updating tutorial sessions using the updated Photoshop version. Even though there are separate videos that explain each Photoshop update, it is better to see the tutorial with the newest version for reference.

If you want to start your creative career and be a real professional (creative) graphic designer, you are at the right place with the best team.

Yes, I am a designer, not just like any graphic design course, which teaches you only some technical skills to use photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign.

Here it's completely different because YES I am a designer course with no limits or endpoints; it offers much more than you think.

As a personal experience, YES, I am a design team that really helped me find my career as a Graphic designer.

They help me on how to set up my workspace, how to upgrade it by time. Plus, how to manage my time and my project files.

Second comes the three brilliant masterclasses, Photoshop Illustrator and InDesign masterclasses, where I gained tons of technical skills and learned how to use those programs as a professional designer.
Then comes the survival kit series
I am a massive fan of this series. I consider it the best guide to learn even more about the creative industry field, design theory, and design. It's helped me to find my career as a branding and as an interactive pdf specialist.

Today I am a YES pro member; it's a new way of learning.
I highly recommend joining it.
When you become a pro member, YES team will help you to be a pro designer. It's a real chance to test your skills and put all the techniques and theories you have learned into action and get reviews and advice on improving your skills and building a killer portfolio.
Last but not least, as a pro member, you will get an excellent PDF survival kit E-Book, a chance to join the yes pro members community on Facebook, get inspiration from other pro members, and even more.
Thanks to Martin Perhiniak and his YES team members, I can say yes, I am a designer.

And now it's your turn to join yesiamadesigner.com and start your creative career Today.

Very happy to have found this online…

Very happy to have found this online training course, which fit my needs to consolidate and structure my post processing knowhow on PS. I learnt a lot thanks to this opportunity, and even after completion of the training, I go back to the training module to review some elements.

I found the structuration of the training well thought and logical. Martin's very clear oral expression was also much appreciated by myself, a non-native English speaker.

Martin's mastery of PS is impressive indeed. Moreover, he knows to remain accessible to less advanced PS users.

Two observations for further improvement:

Too much emphasis was put on learning keyboard shortcuts. While such shortcuts allow indeed to speed the PS workflow, they should not be put that heavily into the tests run in the end of each section. Priority #1 should remain to understand and interconnect the key concepts and techniques. To be an agile and fast PS user comes only second.

Photoshop CC versus Photoshop. Adobe create a dual versions of PS - one cloud-based and the other one installed on users' computers. Adding the many versions of the same software, such diversity does not help defining one training curriculum fitting all technical requirements. Take the "Refine Edge" function, for instance, which is abundantly discussed during the training but only available on the cloud-based version of PS. I don't have a clear solution to the issue. Maybe some more clarity should be made ahead of the registration as to which version of PS is being used during demonstrations. Also providing advisory as to how to move to the cloud-based version of PS, describing pros and cons of such move.

Thanks again for your sharing of PS expertise and looking forward to joining another learning journey with you.

Best regards,

Bertrand

Excellent course

Excellent course. Extremely well presented and easy to follow along with. Being my first experience with InDesign I wouldn't say that I have mastered all the topics covered, but it is a very good base and starting point. Thank you.

Martin is an excellent instructor

I actually took Martin's InDesign Masterclass course several years ago when I started working in communications, and I came out of it with the ability to be extremely efficient with one of my recurring tasks (monthly PDF newsletter). When the opportunity for professional development came up at work this year, I decided to go back to Martin's courses after having tried to up-skill other Adobe software using our company's Pluralsight subscription and not being too happy with the results. I was so glad to find out that Yes I'm a Designer now offers Premiere Pro and After Effects courses along with Illustrator and Photoshop, which made the monthly subscription a better sell for me at work (when I took InDesign, I only signed up for that course instead of going with the subscription, since there were much fewer courses back in the day). I just finished the Illustrator Masterclass and am working my way through Photoshop, and I can recommend the Masterclasses even for people who already use the software regularly but were initially self taught, so perhaps didn't know all the tips and tricks that can end up saving a ton of time on a project and make the tasks more fun. Obviously, if you're a beginner (like I was with InDesign back in the day), these courses are also perfect.

It makes fun and you learn a lot! Its the money worth.

First of all, thank you. It helps so much to become better and better in handling with illustrator. And its fun.

I like the way of how it is set up, watching and practicing. And that the videos are not too long, so theres the possibility to learn in short steps.
