Requirements

  • Of Course You Can is an Online School, that will turn anybody into a Graphic, Web, Digital and Video design Super Star!
  • This journey is not just for people with a talent for design. Our goal is to enable you with tools, the know how and sharing our knowledge… and well, we all know that knowledge is power! You see hundreds of brands, magazines, websites and videos every day… in fact you are bombarded with them... this journey is about discovering how they work, how they are created and the tools that make them what they are. During your three initial journeys we’ll provide you with various ways of being creative whilst slowly preparing you for any design challenge. If you think you’ve never had any creative ability, then fear not… there are ways to create incredible work without a lot of talent. For those of you with a knack for design, there are tutorials that will show you how to harness those skills properly to become better and wiser. From this moment onwards, we would like for you to put your trust in us… don’t stress about not being able to do something… or worry about whether you will excel during this process. JUST take our hand and focus on having the time of your life. There is no shortage to what you will learn, from creating a logo, a poster, a web story to creating magazine layouts, animated brochures and working in the third dimension. How about learning about the mobile design revolution where every minute of every day, everything you see, everywhere you go and everyone you meet becomes a potential inspiration for your next design through the magic of mobile apps and Creative Cloud?! And later creating easy websites with pure coding or with applications like Dreamweaver. How about building a web content management system with WordPress and advertising your website, learning how to bring traffic to it?! How about video editing right there and then on your cell phone and taking it further to continue editing on your computer?! And what about Character animation… ever dreamed of creating a cartoon? Your journey will have it all. You might be here today, having decided to take some of the design work at your company inhouse or you are looking towards maybe one day having your own company and establishing your own brand. After your initial journey you will feel empowered to do anything.
  • At Of Course You Can we have a digital game board that we like to call ‘Your Journey’. How far you go on your journey and at what pace is completely up to you.
  • No knowledge of design at all... no problem. We will teach you all of it.
  • For the advanced designer.... trust us, you will learn just as much!

Description

At Of Course You Can we have a digital game board that we like to call ‘Your Journey’. How far you go on your journey and at what pace is completely up to you. 

We introduce a variety of creative concepts to you by means of recorded webinars. These are 1-2 hour sessions where we show you how to work with creative software and enable you with the tools needed to harness your creativity.

Your journey will consist of different levels. With every level reached you will gain a skill that you can utilise. As you work through these levels you will become proficient in web and/or graphic design. In the digital world we live in, an understanding of or having an ability to be able to utilise these tools, is imperative.

At some point in your life you will need to perhaps create an invite for a party; a company logo or website; a concept for a client or a Facebook image for a marketing campaign. By taking the step to begin Your Journey with us, you will be able to create all these things yourself, and in the process save hundreds of $’s.

In order to partake in Your Journey, you will need to have basic computer knowledge, as well as have access to a computer and the internet.

Who this course is for:

  • Have you ever wondered if you have the ability to create something out of nothing? Whether it be a birthday card, a flyer or poster; or whether you have been dreaming about creating your own logo and/or business card. Maybe you have an idea that you would like to express visually. Maybe you want to create a wedding invite or guest information website. Or maybe you want to be the next eCommerce tycoon… We are here to fill in the gaps to all those “what if’s”, because guess what?… Of Course You Can!
  • We introduce a variety of creative concepts to you by means of recorded webinars. These are 1-2 hour sessions where we show you how to work with creative software and enable you with the tools needed to harness your creativity.
