As you probably know, when you download one of our vectors you get the design in various formats, from .jpg to .ai. While you can sometimes work with the jpg, having a few skills on Adobe Illustrator gives you much more freedom to handle files and edit them.
But how?
We’ve put together a list of easy how-to videos for beginners. They put an emphasis on the basics so you can learn how to make simple customizations or sharpen your skills on Illustrator.
#1 – The Complete Beginners Guide To Adobe Illustrator
This is actually a series by TastyTuts and it’s a great one. It’s got lots of short bite-sized videos you can follow along or skip as you please.
Here are a few ones that we find particularly useful:
Vector basics | Selection & Direct selection tool & more
Prepare and export ready for print in Adobe Illustrator
#2 – Adobe Illustrator 101 Tutorial
This is another video series that we like. It’s simple, straight to the point and easy to follow.
This series only has three videos so it’s especially great if you don’t have much time.
#3 – Illustrator tutorials by Adobe
This series is a little more complex and works more like a course than a tutorial but you can download vectors to practice and find tips right from the folks that created the actual software.
Now that you’re ready to work with vectors, why don’t you start with out trendiest ones right now?
