Understanding Design!

Do you know the basic rules of design? Do you know how to use Photoshop to create anything you want? Do you wish you could lay out brochures and other print material in InDesign?

That’s what last weeks Desktop Publishing course at Verity Institute was all about! Intense Photoshop and InDesign training was surrounded with design principles, practical assignments and hands on critique. Here are a few things we covered:

• How to stimulate creativity
• 11 Design Rules that apply to any project

  • Simplified layout procedures in InDesign
  • Why good designs look good
