💡 Interested in taking a course with Daniel? Learn the essential Adobe Creative Cloud programs here: byol.me/thefutur Also let us know if you want more of Dan, and what you want us to focus on next.
Hello I'm new to the web designing world and I was curious do we as designers need to be good as building artwork from scratch or just know how to work Adobe creative programs?.
are those the same excellent classes as offered at skillshare? started his illustrator essentials training today on coincidence before i saw this video. excellent. good pace, flawless voice , i guess it's r.p. english with no accent i had to switch on a subtitle. take these at home, or wherever you feel comfortable learning and you have less pressure in school following the software lectures.
Tip: Whenever dealing with the pen tool/curvature tool and you forgot to turn the fill off, press "/" and it will remove the fill instantly. Has saved me a lot of time honestly.
I've had his course in Udemy before and the way Dan explains things especially for beginners like me was superb and very easy to learn. Very happy seeing him collaborating with The Futur Academy team.
Hey, Im very interested in what kind of material you sought out afterwards and if you are on a good way to becoming professional :) If that's even what you were going for
I normally don't comment on videos but Dan truly is an Adobe wizard. He covered multiple tools and I feel like I know them way better after just a few minutes here than the months I've spent fiddling with them for work. Love this guy's energy and how he is able to be entertaining/genuine without being unbearably cheesy. Definitely gonna check out his course! Thanks for the tutorial! :D
I'm one of those people who doesn't try the new options when Adobe updates. I'm a Pathfinder user. Now, I know about some better more efficient tools. Daniel Scott's a good teacher. Thanks!
😱Where has this video been all my life. I'm trying to design very specific graphic and these three tools alone have allowed me to fix all the bits I need. Thank you!!
Definitely want to see more of him. His lessons are informative, even for a seasoned designer, like myself and easy to follow. Would enjoy more illustrator and possibly After Effects classes.
I really appreciate the shape builder tool, easy to work with and understand...I have also learned new tools I see but never touch. TheFutur is the best.
I took a little time to understand that the Curve Tool secret is: One curve takes 3 points (3 clicks) So.... If you want to draw an arch.... you need to think this 3 points: - the origin point; - the middle of the arch point; and - the end of the arch point. Once I understand this, Curve Tool becomes easy to me. Great tool.
Nice! Dan is the man, honestly when there are new tools in Illustrator I tend to stick with what I know, but after learning from Dan I'm feeling equipped to upgrade my workflow. Also, the way Matthew whispers in the videos makes it feel like I'm learning some legit industry secrets. Good stuff as usual.
That was one of the best 30 minutes of my time spent EVER! Thanks Dan for getting to the point, explaining clearly and showing some great examples. There was a lot I didn’t know! Thanks The Futur for putting Dan on.
LOVE! That is one thing I enjoy about the Adobe programs is there is always something to learn. Thank you Futur crew for posting this to help us speed up our workflow.
Mind. blown. I've been using Illustrator for almost 20 years and these tips are amazing! Thank you so much. Futur Academy is probably the best channel I've found on TH-cam in years.
I have taken several Adobe courses with Daniel Scott and he is amazing with his product knowledge and his technical demonstrations are fantastic and presents in a manner that is easily understood
The width tool is super dope!! What an idea. Thank you adobe for making it. And the Futur is the Future. You guys should be awarded for doing this kind of work. It is resourceful, helpful and insightful every single time. Cheers!
i used to be afraid to use illustrator because of the fear of mastering a few tools, but these 5 tips are wide, and have helped me a lot, i can comfortably make a logo using the shape builder tool. I am so excited , i love your shirt too.
Great video, I'll definitely be looking into Daniel's courses. Based off this, he seems like an awesome teacher. Looking forward to more longer videos like this 🙂
Wow for this tutorial, not boring and very helpful. Im just starting with the CC version now after using CS version for 6 years. This really helps. Thank youu.
I really appreciate how thorough Dan was by explaining exactly what he was doing. I am often confused and laden with questions such as, 'what did he just do' and 'wait! what did he just press'. Thanks for the video :)
I've been messing around with Photoshop since I was a kid and always strayed away from Illustrator because I didn't see what made it so different and it was a bit confusing to use. After watching this video, it's helped me not only tackle some of the projects that required Illustrator, but it also sparked a whole new level of interest and appreciation for what it can do! So thank you so much for making this video! It's been just over a year since you uploaded this but it's still making a difference, at least for me, so thanks!!
OMG - the width tool is a game changer! I stopped working on a project because I spent forever doing the 2 parallel lines thing and just couldn't take it anymore. Now I should be able to fly through the remainder of the project (once I get the hang of the tool - LOL!)
I took one of Dan's courses in Auckland! So funny to see him pop up on my TH-cam feed. Such an amazing teacher, would highly recommend taking one of his courses :D
This was a pretty amazing tutorial. I know illustrator pretty damn well but I am surprised on a few things he mentioned that I just by passed and never checked out. Once again The Futur Academy coming in clutch and giving the design community straight up gold in value. Thank you and thank you Daniel for being awesome!
Earlier I was listening to Episode 069 of your podcast and I remember this guy because I ve watched this video about two times before mainly because I happened to find his teaching about the grading tool very helpful since I wasn't good at it and learnt it right after watching this. Guy such a master at teaching, I really enjoyed watching the video. And now I'm watching it again rn. I'm sorry for not giving my like and somehow credit you guys for this awesome video. Blessings!
Daneil Scott! I'm your newest fan! Loved how clean and thorough you were! Didn't realize how long the video was until you mentioned :) BY THE WAY, killer t-shirt! Lol!
I love Dan's videos, huge fan! I usually find I have to pause, rewind often with other tutorials on youtube, never have to do that with Dan's classes, its also really cool to be using the same content and follow along properly. in some of his other tutorials he gives you the option to do homework based on what you just learned, so you can try without instructions and get some experience in a safe zone, thanks all!
I REALLY ENJOYED THIS VIDEO AS WELL AS THE TEACHER..DANIEL! I AM A NOVICE/A BEGINNER AND HAVE ONLY USED A FREE PROGRAM..INKSCAPE. ENJOYING THIS FREE PROGRAM I LEARNED A LOT AND WAS EXCITED ABOUT USING IT. NOW THAT I PURCHASED ILLUSTRATOR I CAN'T BELIEVE WHAT I'VE BEEN MISSING OUT ON. I HAVE SUBSCRIBED AND LOOK FORWARD TO USING YOUR TUTORIALS. THANK SO MUCH!!!!!!

Welcome and Thank you.
Same here, don't always think to check out the new tools. But some of these are definitely helpful

Awesome tutorial!
One of the rarest videos about design i found in 4 days of using illustrator, i`m sure that the work with logos will be easier and more interesting
I really appreciate how thorough Dan was by explaining exactly what he was doing. I am often confused and laden with questions such as, 'what did he just do' and 'wait! what did he just press'. Thanks for the video :)
Dan is the man. Did his basics courses on Skillshare, can’t recommend them enough. Great having him on here!
