In college I learned Quark but thanks to your video I see how similar InDesign is. I feel a little more confident now just incase future clients specify InDesign. Alternating back and forth shouldn't be too much of a problem. Thanks for the quick video! Really helps!
amazing dude! i loved the way you explained everything, im following all your tutorials, i need to know how to do a manual, im working recently on a big graphic design studio as a peasant im going to learn everything i can with your videos. Awesome. thankyou for everything.
Really good to have an overview, and I like the style of the tutorial. I am crossing over from Quark so need to be able to quickly see how INdesign works - would just like to point out typo on above slide tho' ;-)
This is awesome. I was searching for some videos to get a better feel of how InDesign worked, and this seems like something I can do...and maybe have have done before (thank you, memory bank).
I've been using this program for my Desktop Publishing class, and this pretty much nails the basics on the head. very useful tutorial--and it ended up looking pretty good
just what i was looking for, still i don't see the point of indesing, why not use illustrator or even better photoshop? this indesign seems to be just a word prossesr with a few basic graphics capabilitys....
@happygamestvfun1 That's precisely the point of InDesign, actually. It's not for editing/playing with images, and that's why there are separate programs such as Illustrator, Photoshop, and Fireworks.
you don't know how much you're saving me right now ._. my moving up on my acads next year is at risk. Thank you so much for finding the time to make this
some people can simply be told how to do this, others would rather be shown.... i'm the latter. Thanks for the workflow demo, it made things a lot simpler in my eyes. :D
Tukoart...man that totally explains it all! Thank you for keeping my head above water. This makes a world of difference for me. Now I feel compelled to learn this program too. Dude, you are awesome for taking the time to share and explain what was once confusing. I salute you.
This all what InDesign is about? Just frames and pasting your work to dimensions and so forth. Cant you do this all in Photoshop? Dont understand why Graphic Designing employers dont hire elite Photoshop users if they dont know InDesign. Simple nonsense program in my opinion but what do I know. Good tutorial by the way.
knowing photoshop wont make you a graphic designer!!!! not even knowing well indesign..... theres alot behind.... plus photoshop is great for image, flayers and creating pages or spreads but in my opinion and I work with indesgn, I will never create a 200 pages book on plane photoshop.... plus how can you send it to have it printed???? plus let say i finish the 150 page magaine project but the client dont like
the fonts of all body text of all the 150 pages??? there are features that helps you to just select the font and it will automaticly change the font on all the pages..... plus lets say that you made all those little page number at the button of the page plus your client forgot a full page anounsment that goes on page 40, how will you change the page number on the rest of the pages fast???? indesign makes that job for u..... plus corporate printers print pages in multiple of 4 pages
Just a simple answers for your retarded brain, my accname is legollas, cuz its my little brother YT acc that its always logged in here , second, yes, i call you NERD, GEEK whatever, cuz you are indeed, if you never studied this and you can do better things, its becouse:
1) you are just a bighmouth.
2) you spended hours using a program that you dont even needed.
your missing the point... he is giving us a tutorial on how to use the basic functions of the program. its not about how good the final product is here... this isn't some sort of design exhibition.
@MonsterMo44 exactly man, this guy is a genius. We're professionals and can/WILL learn at an accelerated rate. Don't baby us anymore, tutorial-makers of the world!
Yeah I DON'T agree that you always need drop shadows. fail. But other than that it's nice to see a really basic view of someone else's workflow in a fast paced overview. There's always a couple little things I learn when watching another person use programs.
I wish all tutorials were this quick! You don't treat us like children. You don't have some weird nerdy accent where you talk out of your nose. And you don't have to remind us about the Ctrl/Apple keys a hundred times in each movie. Just brilliant! This is how ALL software tutorials should be. 5 stars.
it sounds like he is jacked on caffeine like a jittery guy just wanting to Get Some Design Done! Then again most designers are like that, long live caffeine designers
Guys, the way you talk is just give you down finger. He is a pro and he knows what is he doing. If u think you're better make videos and post. Do you guys know who he is? I don't thinks so.
Anyway thanks a lot for these helpful videos, I hope you read these comments and answer those fool retards.
Copying and pasting images from Bridge is not a good print production process. Better to download the images first and change the mode to CMYK and format to tiff or eps.
Just wondering if anyone knows of a company looking for a Graphics Professional, I have 15 years experience and I'm located in the San Gabriel Valley, California.
Production Artist/Graphic Designer - 7/06 to 4/08
Designed, created and implemented company logo, website and complete digital pre-press workflow.
Results: Provided greater efficiencies, cost savings and employee accountability.
This was a really great tutorial. Thanx a million. I have been using Adobe FrameMaker for some document design and layout tasks....wanted to see where and how InDesign could fit in.
This is awesome. I always wondered what Indesign's objective was. Basically page making..hmmm. But if you know how to use Illustrator and Photoshop, this clip should be simple to follow. Clear speaking and good info. Great job!
That was good... I agree everything the rest of you said. Umm... I know this really isn't what I should be looking at, but the actual page that he laid out is... kinda ugly... :P
this was a good video but he sounds like a complete asshole
