Hi, I’m Daniel Ogu, a graphics designer and illustrator for over seven years now.
I created the course because I noticed a large amount of beginners in my field struggle to get a stable amount of gigs, they try to complicate things when really there’s a very simple route they could go about to start earning with digital illustrations.
And that route involves two of my favourite things on this planet, Adobe Illustrator and the Fiverr platform.
A novice designer could learn some vector graphics skills on adobe illustrator and since it’s a reasonably in demand skill he/she could open up a good gig on the Fiverr platform and start earning. It sounds simple but a lot of people struggle with this because of two main reasons, they don’t have the right skills learnt for profit on Adobe illustrator and they don’t know how to setup a good profile and gig on the Fiverr platform.
So I’ve selected four of my high demand skills that has earned me a considerable ton on the Fiverr platform over the years and taught them in this course. I also have a special section teaching you how to open up a successful Fiverr profile and gigs to earn money with these skills learnt.
With over 8hrs of high quality, in demand and detailed tutoring I cover the following topics.
Vector Portrait creation:
This course covers everything you need to know about how to turn any picture to a beautiful vector illustration that can be used for different purposes like for album covers, podcast covers, decorations, merch, the uses art really endless.
Settings things up: is the chapter showing you the best settings to apply on Adobe illustrator while creating a file and with the windows setup to make life a lot easier and smoother while working on vector portraits.
The Pen and shape builder tools: is the chapter that covers the two tools you be using almost exclusively while working on these illustrations, so important I had to create a whole chapter just to ensure you had them mastered.
Outlining Breakdown: is the chapter where I breakdown different subjects so you understand what parts of these subjects will be represented by lines or shapes in the outlining phase. The outlining phase being the skeleton of the vector illustrations, it’s important to know how to represent each line or shape in the illustrations with the proper techniques.
