1 00:00:00,220 --> 00:00:01,510 Hello everyone. 2 00:00:01,510 --> 00:00:05,470 Welcome to very first lesson of learning Adobe Illustrator. 3 00:00:05,470 --> 00:00:11,380 So you can see in my screen I run the Adobe Illustrator software and this is my opening interface. 4 00:00:11,380 --> 00:00:17,800 So when you will run the software on your computer you will have the similar opening interface as like 5 00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:18,190 mine. 6 00:00:18,190 --> 00:00:22,090 And we will start our Adobe Illustrator journey from here. 7 00:00:22,270 --> 00:00:24,940 So this is called the opening interface. 8 00:00:24,940 --> 00:00:31,060 And whatever design you will start creating, you have to create a file first. 9 00:00:31,060 --> 00:00:35,050 And for creating a new file you can use this new file option. 10 00:00:35,050 --> 00:00:37,450 Or you can just go to this file menu here. 11 00:00:37,450 --> 00:00:40,450 And you will have this new options as well. 12 00:00:40,450 --> 00:00:46,360 So this new option and this new file option working for same reason okay. 13 00:00:46,780 --> 00:00:54,580 And Adobe Illustrator provides different type of presets like if you need to create a postcard or if 14 00:00:54,580 --> 00:00:57,820 you need to create a posters, you will have different type of presets. 15 00:00:57,820 --> 00:01:00,550 So you can see this is the postcard preset. 16 00:01:00,550 --> 00:01:09,310 So if you just click this postcard, this 288 by 560 point file will be opened. 17 00:01:09,310 --> 00:01:16,120 And this is the exact size for creating a postcard so similar like this is for the A4 size. 18 00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:17,020 So. 19 00:01:17,700 --> 00:01:19,710 It's have more present. 20 00:01:20,220 --> 00:01:24,270 And for creating a custom file, you just have to click for the file. 21 00:01:24,270 --> 00:01:25,680 New new file options. 22 00:01:25,710 --> 00:01:30,300 I'm going to click this new file and the pop up will be appeared. 23 00:01:30,300 --> 00:01:36,810 So you can see for creating a new file you have to use this option. 24 00:01:36,810 --> 00:01:41,160 So what will be the width or what will be the height of your file size. 25 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:42,420 You have to declare it here. 26 00:01:42,420 --> 00:01:45,930 So you can see this is our width field and this is our height field. 27 00:01:45,960 --> 00:01:48,300 But you have to know. 28 00:01:49,180 --> 00:01:50,200 The sizes. 29 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:52,060 Okay, so here is the field for sizes. 30 00:01:52,060 --> 00:01:58,180 And the size is declared with what is it declared with points or pixels or inches or millimeters. 31 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:00,400 You will describe these things from here. 32 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:02,080 You can see this is the points option. 33 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:05,260 So if you know the points you can use this points. 34 00:02:05,260 --> 00:02:09,970 But if you want to create your file with the pixels in that case you can use this pixels. 35 00:02:09,970 --> 00:02:17,350 If you want to create a new file or design with the inches or with the feet, with the millimeter or 36 00:02:17,350 --> 00:02:20,650 centimeter, even meters, you can declare it from here. 37 00:02:20,650 --> 00:02:26,230 So if you know any designs with the centimeters, in that case, you can use this centimeters option. 38 00:02:26,230 --> 00:02:31,300 If you know any size of pixels, you can use this pixels, you can use this inches. 39 00:02:31,300 --> 00:02:34,450 So whatever you need you can use from here okay. 40 00:02:34,900 --> 00:02:36,430 So this is our width field. 41 00:02:36,430 --> 00:02:39,220 This is our height field and this is the orientation. 42 00:02:39,220 --> 00:02:46,960 So if you need to create your uh files or designs with the portrait orientation you can use this one. 43 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:49,420 Or you can use this landscape as well okay. 44 00:02:49,420 --> 00:02:51,100 So I'm keeping this portrait option. 45 00:02:51,100 --> 00:02:55,720 And if you need more preset in that case you can use these tabs. 46 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:58,570 You can see this is the mobile tabs. 47 00:02:58,570 --> 00:03:05,620 So if you need any preset for designing any relevant design with the phone size, in that case you can 48 00:03:05,620 --> 00:03:06,460 use this one. 49 00:03:06,460 --> 00:03:08,980 And here is a web tab. 50 00:03:08,980 --> 00:03:15,820 So if you need any designs to create with the websites in that case you can use this options okay. 51 00:03:15,820 --> 00:03:18,520 So you can see this mobile. 52 00:03:18,640 --> 00:03:21,430 This mobile preset is using px. 53 00:03:21,610 --> 00:03:23,320 That means pixels. 54 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:27,010 This web also using px that means pixels. 55 00:03:27,010 --> 00:03:33,400 So this web preset is using 1920 by 1080 pixels. 56 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:33,910 Okay. 57 00:03:33,910 --> 00:03:39,880 But if you click on print tab, you can see the letter A4 or print large or legal. 58 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:43,150 These things are declared with the M that means millimeter. 59 00:03:43,150 --> 00:03:45,190 So this is a tabloid preset. 60 00:03:45,190 --> 00:03:51,850 And you can see 279 by 431 millimeter. 61 00:03:51,850 --> 00:03:59,050 And if you go to the next tab called film and video, it's also declared with the pixels. 62 00:03:59,050 --> 00:03:59,530 Okay. 63 00:03:59,530 --> 00:04:06,100 And if you need to create or if you need to find any preset that's relevant with the art and illustration, 64 00:04:06,100 --> 00:04:12,430 in that case, you can go to the other illustration tab and you can see you will have the postcard, 65 00:04:12,430 --> 00:04:17,170 you will have the letter A4 tablet and many more presets are available. 66 00:04:17,170 --> 00:04:18,250 So it depends on your need. 67 00:04:18,250 --> 00:04:24,010 You can pick it any preset from here, or you can just create the manual values over here. 68 00:04:24,010 --> 00:04:26,770 And you can then you just have to click this create. 69 00:04:26,770 --> 00:04:34,240 And if you want to type a name for your document or for the file, in that case you can type in here 70 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:34,690 okay. 71 00:04:34,690 --> 00:04:37,840 So as an example I'm going to use this postcard option. 72 00:04:37,840 --> 00:04:41,140 And I'm going to pick this a postcard preset. 73 00:04:41,140 --> 00:04:46,600 And I want to write first file. 74 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:48,520 So this will be my file name. 75 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:51,490 And then I'm going to click create. 76 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:53,790 Here we go. 77 00:04:53,820 --> 00:04:55,980 This is our first file. 78 00:04:55,980 --> 00:04:58,170 And you can see this is our postcard size. 79 00:04:58,170 --> 00:05:02,100 And you can see, as we have written our file name as the first file. 80 00:05:02,310 --> 00:05:04,650 Here is the first file name okay. 81 00:05:04,650 --> 00:05:07,980 And this is our opening interface. 82 00:05:07,980 --> 00:05:11,400 And after opening interface we have created our first files. 83 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:14,520 And this is the interface of Adobe Illustrator. 84 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:17,220 So at the top you can see we found the menu bar. 85 00:05:17,220 --> 00:05:18,450 This is called the menu bar. 86 00:05:18,450 --> 00:05:22,170 And at left side this all our tools. 87 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:29,100 Basically these tools are using for designing whatever you need to design. 88 00:05:29,100 --> 00:05:34,140 You have to use these tools, and in right side you can see this is the properties tab. 89 00:05:34,140 --> 00:05:35,610 You will have this layers option. 90 00:05:35,610 --> 00:05:37,170 You will have this libraries. 91 00:05:37,170 --> 00:05:44,400 And if you scroll down with your mouse you will have this rulers and grids guides and snap options. 92 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:50,190 So Adobe Illustrator they do have two type of workspace. 93 00:05:50,190 --> 00:05:55,950 So this is the essential or the default workspace of Adobe Illustrator. 94 00:05:55,950 --> 00:06:00,990 But I will suggest you to use Essential Classics. 95 00:06:00,990 --> 00:06:04,740 This is this interface called uh Essential Workspace. 96 00:06:04,740 --> 00:06:10,800 But using of Essential Classic workspace will make your task easier. 97 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:14,610 So let me show you the difference between essential and the essential classics. 98 00:06:14,610 --> 00:06:16,140 For changing the workspace. 99 00:06:16,140 --> 00:06:17,880 You have to go to this windows menu. 100 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,520 And from there you will have this workspace option. 101 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:23,070 And you can see here is the tick mark on essential. 102 00:06:23,070 --> 00:06:27,120 That means right now we do have the essential workspace. 103 00:06:27,210 --> 00:06:30,750 And in left side you can see only a single line of tools. 104 00:06:30,750 --> 00:06:39,270 But when you will use this essential classic then you can see you will have two line of tools and you 105 00:06:39,270 --> 00:06:41,820 will have a different type of options available in here. 106 00:06:41,820 --> 00:06:45,660 And you got different type of options in our properties tab. 107 00:06:45,780 --> 00:06:53,760 So using of Essential Classics, it will help you for designing easily because you will get everything 108 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:55,440 you need very easily. 109 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:55,860 Okay. 110 00:06:55,860 --> 00:07:02,520 So you can see we got two lines and all the essential essential tools are available in here. 111 00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:10,590 I don't need to find a separately because after using the essential classic workspace, you will get 112 00:07:10,590 --> 00:07:17,400 every tools that you required very easily as well as like the changing the colors, using the strokes, 113 00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:19,830 using the uh, uniforms, everything. 114 00:07:19,830 --> 00:07:21,180 You will get very easily. 115 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:27,090 So I will suggest you to use this windows menu and using the workspace. 116 00:07:27,090 --> 00:07:29,850 And from here you have to go with the essential classics. 117 00:07:29,910 --> 00:07:35,280 Then you will be very comfortable with the using of Adobe Illustrator. 118 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:35,730 Okay. 119 00:07:35,730 --> 00:07:40,590 So this was our opening interface and we already created a file. 120 00:07:40,590 --> 00:07:47,310 And now we will learn how you will use the Adobe Illustrator for designing. 121 00:07:47,310 --> 00:07:53,160 And in our next lesson we are going to learn how you will create a design using shape. 122 00:07:53,820 --> 00:07:57,750 So till then Tata and I'm going to see you in next lesson.
