T-Shirt Graphics with Adobe Illustrator Master Class Information

This course covers all about how to setup Adobe Illustrator to do great T-Shirt graphics. You will learn basic to intermediate technques used by T-Shirt artists day in and day out to create and color separate T-Shirt images. Whether you are a total beginner who has never even seen Illustrator or even a seasoned pro looking for those hidden tips and tricks – this course is what you need to understand and use Illustrator in your shop.

Three hours of short focused videos. Refer back to them over and over for up to TWO YEARS!

This course it taught by Jasper Crawford, a working “in the trenches” T-Shirt artist who has a degree in graphic design and has been doing T-Shirt graphics for over 13 years. And, Jasper is a disciple of Scott Fresener and was heavily involved in the early T-Jet DTG training and support. You will learn all of the important tools, menus and techniques that are used by T-Shirt artists day in and day out.

This is not a course to teach you everything there is to know about Illustrator. There are books and dozens of online videos that cover every tool and menu and what they do.

But…. you will learn techniques that are very T-Shirt specific like the proper Color Palette/Swatch to use, how to choke and trap colors, how to create an underbase, how to output film, how to do special effects and a lot more!

This course is taught in Adobe Illustrator CC 2017 but the techniques shown will work in almost any version of Adobe Illustrator.
