Surface Pattern Design: Refining Patterns & Portfolio Building - VIDEO Course
In this class you will learn actionable steps to refine your repeat patterns and to build a strong foundation for your surface pattern design career.
Welcome to "Surface Pattern Design: Refining Patterns & Portfolio Building", a course dedicated to pattern designers of all levels, irrespective of your preferred design software (Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, Affinity Designer, Procreate, traditional media).
WHO IS THIS CLASS FOR
This class is for pattern designer of all levels who would like to take their patterns to the next level and prepare their work to be presented to potential clients. If you have a passion for pattern design and a desire to enhance your compositions, experiment with colors, add depth to your creations, and build a standout portfolio, this class is tailored for you.
A strong portfolio is a powerful tool for attracting clients, securing freelance opportunities, or landing a job in the competitive field of pattern design.
WHAT YOU WILL NEED
All I recommend is a notebook and a cup of tea or coffee :) The course is structured into 4 segments and I recommend you write down actionable steps and goals for each of those segments:
- composition
- color
- interest
- portoflio
You will need your favorite design program: Procreate, Photoshop, Illustrator, or Affinity. This course is not software-specific, however, I am giving a few extra bonus tips for Affinity users in some lessons.
