Inkscape: Is one of the most used FREE Vector Art software, with a wide array of options and tools. Whether you are an Illustrator, Designer, Web designer or just someone who needs to create some Vector Graphics, you will find this tool very Easy to use. Here are some of the features:
Flexible drawing tools
Broad file format compatibility (Export in PNG, SVG and more!)
Powerful text tool
Bezier and spiro curves
Progressive Learning Experience: Then it's time to get our hands dirty! We'll begin by Designing simple Icons in Black and white, then go through some Basic Colors and Shadows,further progress to Soft Shadows and Colorful Icons and finally wrapping everything up with Gradients. This Learning Curve will help you improve your Icon Design skills step by step without huge jumps in difficulty and complexity. We believe that making the Content of this Icon Design Course accessible to anyone is very important, and are constantly improving the course with New videos to further soften the Learning Curve.
Create your own Icons! We don't want you to just follow blindly, so you are free (and encouraged!) to take your spin on the Icons we'll be Designing. We try our best to diversify the Techniques and Themes of the Videos so we keep the Icon Design practice Fun and Challenging! Create your own Vector Graphics that you'll be able to use later on in your Website, Mobile or Computer App, or just for fun!
Icon Design Assignment: We're also giving you a Practical Assignment as part of the Course, where you'll be making an Icon from a randomized table. This we'll keep you focused on using your acquired skills and techniques while putting them to use right away! We believe it's important to improve your Icon Design skills by practising.
Free Content: Everything we'll be doing in the Class will also be available for you to download, completely FREE. Yes, you will receive all the Icons we're making in SVG format, so you can edit them on Inkscape and compare to what you have done!
