First of all, advertising design needs good communication with people. You must understand what others want to do, so that you can hit the nail on the head. If your listening ability is not too bad, you can choose to work part-time. Part-time technical proficiency is much better than that of designers. Most of them give you a lot of drawings at once, but if you want to finish them in a short time, the salary is also high. Learning advertising design mainly includes three softwares: firstly, ps(photoshop) is a comprehensive software; Secondly, coredraw is generally not used very much; There is also a software suitable for making logo(vi enterprise logo): illustrator. The generality and tools of these three softwares are similar. If you can master these three softwares, you will have no problem making any drawings. Drawing a thoughtful picture depends on your wisdom. In addition, I can tell you that advertising design has little to do with drawing, but mainly depends on the collocation of pictures. You don't have to draw it yourself. In fact, you don't need to buy any books to learn these softwares. The video on the website has been explained in detail. You can search for advertising design tutorials on the web page. The two most basic softwares for advertising design are PS and CD. Of course, if you use an Apple computer, you need to master AI. These are the most basic requirements for software. In order to make a good design, we must understand the content of plane composition and color composition. In addition, the most important thing in designing is definitely the idea, that is, the so-called creativity, but at present most design companies in society will do it according to the needs of customers, which limits your thinking. But there is no way to survive, unless it is to participate in some competitions or cultivate sentiment. Moreover, learning design can not only master the technical problems on the surface, but also learn more about printing in the later stage to avoid distortion and color cast in practical application. Really want to learn design well is not a simple matter, it is never too old to learn.
