Dan is an amazing teacher. Absolutely no fluff. No blabbing. Nuggets of knowledge through out the course. Do not skip ahead, watch every minute.
I can't explain how thankful I am for you. Without over exaggerating, you explain things the best of all the people I watched on YT. I have a friend of mine who really needs a proper photoshop tutorial, so If you find it as something you'd do it would mean A LOT for many people. You're an amazing human being and I wish you all the best in life. Thank you!
I cannot believe the amount of skills that this has taught me. I have paid so much for online courses & this, by far, has taught me the most. Thank you so much.
Dan you are the beeeest!!! I am 17 and i am trying to learn this profession and all of the courses i took yours are always best THANK YOU for making this highest quality courses available for free!
Dan, thankyou for the amazing illustrator and photoshop courses, both essential and advanced on udemy. I was struggling to learn and have the confidence. Those courses were all I needed.
I don't often leave comments on videos, but I had to on this one. I've been a hobbyist graphic designer for over 20 years mainly using a program called NeoPaint (ever heard of it?) and occasionally a very old version of Paint Shop Pro 7. Ancient stuff, I know. I've been using Photoshop for about two years now and just two weeks ago I decided to dive into Illustrator. That first day was overwhelming, despite my history in design. As mentioned, I have been using ancient programs, but I always found "my" way to do things, so jumping into something so modern felt like a lot. Thanks to tutorials like (and especially) yours I've actually become relatively proficient in my first two weeks, though I do forget things from time to time and need to look back at tutorials. So why am I writing this? Just wanted to pass along that I'm super impressed with the way you teach. Your methods offer frequent reminders of how to actually navigate around and do things without coming across as annoying or repetitive. That's a real talent and I can't tell you how much I appreciate it as someone who is very particular about the way they learn new skills.
The same here ;)
I really recommend accessing the course with the resources and class projects to really practice those skills and put them into practice, you upload your work to your own dashboard. It takes time, it’s not a day or 5 day course, but it’s worth it and getting the certification to place on your cv is great too. Dan is a great trainer, I have tried other illustrator courses and this is the only one I stuck with!
I´m a 3D animator and videographer and although i studied graphic design a little bit, i always felt like i never quite understood the tools and the world of designers, i always had trouble with this part in my projects and also many client projects.
But THIS is what i needed!
GRACIAS!
Greetings from Ecuador.
INCREDIBLE tutorial. Best one I've ever seen for such a complex program. You made this so much easier than any other tutorial I've seen on Adobe stuff. Another thing that I love about this is that there's no blaring music that is completely distracting and off-putting.
So so grateful for this course Dan! Your style of teaching is super fun and easy! Thank you so much!
You are the nicest teacher I’ve ever seen.
This is one of the best tutorials I have ever found on any subject! When you're really advanced at something it's not always easy to teach a complete beginner, but this was laid out and delivered perfectly. I've finished this video and am moving on the the advanced video. I really feel that I have absorbed all of the information and am confident in what I'm doing. Excellent job and thank you so much for all of your time and effort in making these videos!!!
Thanks for this. It's good to know I'm hitting the right notes.
I love your tutorials they’re really helpful and wholesome 💖
Guys this is an INSANE tutorial I would definitely suggest this to people of every kind, no experience to pros, u will definitely learn something no matter how experienced u are.
Liked and followed for how great this is. I would say that the way you show us how to do things is like telling someone to open a door by grabbing the doorknob with their fingers, squeezing the knob, rotating their wrist clockwise then pulling open the door. That's exactly how I need to be taught and you've done a great job of it. Thank you so much!
You're very welcome. 🙌
This is what I was searching for....... a massive value in it. LOTS OF LOVE DAN ❤❤❤
Hey Dan ! You are the best in teaching .I am a beginner for illustrator and your essential video made me to know the basics in the best way. Thank you Dan for making the video filled with fun learning . 😇
Omg, I just spent the whole day watching the same tutorial from 4yrs ago, and absolutely loved it. Now I see this latest one, and I think want to do it all over again. That's how much I love this guys teaching style 😊
Dan, you are really the Best! So much detail and quality! Thank you so much!
I've always been scared of trying this, but this year the theme is facing my fears. Thanks Daniel, you make it look so easy.
I am relearning illustrator after 4 years, successfully revived my skills and learnt many new ones. Thank you so much for this course!
Hey Dan, just wanted to say thank you so much for putting these videos together - it's helping me out HEAPS! I haven't touched AI in almost 20 years. I hope you're living your best life, take care! ♡
Thank you Dan! This is a great video. Did you know there are a couple of sweet shortcuts to change the appearance of your fill to none? You can do this by simply pressing the ?/ key to the left of your right shift-button. Another great shortcut is switching selection between your fill and stroke by pressing X on the keyboard. Funfact: using shift-X will even alter the color of the stroke to fill and vice versa.
These could be really handy! Keep up the good work 🙌
I’m from Bangladesh 🇧🇩 I wanted to learn design in Ai because i wanna create my own design and put it on Cloths. Thank you so much. I’ll start today. Much love.
You're a great mentor ❤ I can't even describe how much I owe you. This is my day 2 using this course and I'm already making huge progress. Many thanks
I'm now an expert in Adobe illustrator, i started my journey with you Denn, thank you❤
no you are not
You're a great teacher and I've always like watching your tutorials. Thanks for this video. 😊
I'm incredibly grateful for your videos, they have proven to be immensely helpful, especially for someone like me who is just starting out in graphic design and currently delving into Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator. Your content has been instrumental in my learning journey. God bless you!
Your tutoring style is the best ever. keep it up!
Hour in, love the way you explain things man! Great work. Thank you for making this! :D
Thanks again, Dan! I started a week ago with your Illustrator Courses and learned a ton. You are a great teacher!
Should I still buy his course although he is doing a free video tutuorial ?
This course was absolutely amazing thank you so much for this amazing course
Just found your Channel and it is an ABSOLUTE MASTERPIECE , thank you so much for all that work and effort you out into it to provide all of this info , god bless you 🙏🏼

Thank you so much for such an informative tutorial. You are 100% the best teacher and I've enjoyed the learning process immensely. Have put off so long learning Illustrator as didn't know where to start and now can't wait to keep going. Off to sign up for the essentials one.
Always enjoy your tutorials 👍🧡
I'm really enjoying this! It's so great that you offered this course 😊
So for my project I did a picture of a cow. It took me 3 hours but for a first attempt it turned out pretty good. Thanks so much for making the projects to go away and do. I leant so much and just went back to the tutorial when I got stuck. The only thing that really got me was colouring. You are amazing. thanks
You are an absolute legend, this is so useful ❤ looking forward to watching more!
Thank you very much Dan for this wonderful wonderful video.This is so so helpful. Thank you very much.
THIS IS REALLY AMAZING I LOVE IT
I completed the first lesson (fox body, head and nose) and I have already learnt a lot! Can't wait to finish this. Thank you for uploading to TH-cam!
Do you know the difference between this his course here and the one in Udemy please
@@akahbethrand1563 I don't have it on Udemy, but with similar youtube > Udemy courses I have done in the past. Udemy courses are a lot more in-depth. For example a 1.5hr TH-cam course may be a 15hr Udemy course (this depends on the course obv.)
I personally prefer courses on Udemy even though you have to pay for it, just check out the free lessons before you buy and see if you find value in it.
I cannot wait to start this!
You're a very VERY good teacher. I really enjoyed this video and I feel like I have learned so much. keep making your videos.
LAYERS. I'm a Fashion Designer and we use layers a lot when creating sewing patterns to separate each size: small, medium, large, etc. =) Really HELPFUL tutorials. Thank you!!!
Thank you so much, Dan!! I truly appreciate you providing us with all your excellent tutorials. You are seriously AWESOME!! I learned to use InDesign a couple of years ago because of you! I can’t wait to go through this new Adobe Illustrator tutorial. Thanks again!!😊🎨
That gap detection bit helped a lot. Thanks!
