Design is learned by watching decisions, not just tools. In a live graphic design class you see a designer take a brief, sketch options, choose type and color and explain why one version works better than another. You can ask about your own project in the Q&A queue, and the host answers on air, often by showing the change on screen.
Classes cover typography, layout and grids, brand identity, color, design tools and building a portfolio. Each class page lists the level and the software used, so you can prepare before the start time. Source files and reference sheets from the session are part of the materials pack. Browse the live design class schedule for upcoming sessions, and follow designers whose work you like to get an email when they announce a new class.
Tickets are priced by the designer teaching, usually 29 to 149 USD. All Access includes every class marked "Included in All Access" and the included replays. Designers who already have an audience can teach design classes live and keep 75 percent of every ticket. They own their attendee list, and on the Pro plan they can keep selling the replay after the class ends. Payouts go to the expert's own connected payout account.
