Design is about communicating visually with creativity. To communicate and express a message, we use imagery, typography, and colours.
This class will teach you how to communicate your message visually and express your core values . The manifesto can be a declaration of principles or a call to action, or even a call to action for a cause that you believe in.
You will learn how you can gather inspiration, create mood boards, layout and composition tips like alignment, proximity, contrast, how to use colours, how to choose and pair typography, and how to make your designs stand out!
You will learn the following:
- How to visually communicate a message
- How to create a manifesto

Everyone is welcome! If you are interested in graphic design, self exploration and personal growth, this class is for you. No previous experience is necessary. I will walk you through the basics of graphic design to help you design like an expert and bring your ideas to reality. You will need to have access to Adobe Illustrator (but you can also use your favourite graphic software) to follow the steps.
You can use the skills you have learned in this class in any graphic design projectt that you create in the future.
