Introduction to the course1:39
Before we jump into the course, let's take a look at what we are going to be creating.

First we need to create a new document5:19
Before we start creating our design let's take a look at the document we will be using to create it in. And by the way, we will be using the same document settings throughout the course so it's a good idea to create one, template document and just reuse it.
