Lettering with Illustrator for iPad

Start by getting to know Alejandro Solórzano a little better as he talks about his studies, professional background, and how his true passion became his career. He also shares his main sources of inspiration as well as his greatest influences.

Then, learn more about lettering and the important role it plays. Pinpoint the message you want to represent and get started on the first steps in defining the look and feel of your composition by way of a mood board. Once that's all set, get to work on your sketch!

Move on to discover the advantages of using vectors for your project. Alejandro teaches you a technique for effectively arranging your words in a specific format and explains his creative process. He takes you on a tour of Adobe Illustrator for iPad and shows you the essential tools for digitizing your designs.

Once your composition is digitized, focus on creating your color palette using your mood board. Look at how to set your word among a range of backgrounds and surroundings and how to add depth and volume by playing around with lighting effects like glow, shadows, and gradients.

To finish, learn to scale, adjust, and export your composition, apply it to products, and then share it on social media.
