Video description
This critically-acclaimed interactive training program from
Adobe Press offers exceptional quality high-definition video to
teach the fundamentals of Adobe Indesign CC. Including more than 8
hours of video tutorials, the course comes complete with lesson
files, assessment quizzes, and review materials. Experienced
instructor Chad Chelius presents a comprehensive introduction to
InDesign, including best practices as well as fundamental layout
and document styling concepts. Topics covered include working with
text, styles, and objects, and outputting files as ePubs, and how
to work within the Creative Cloud. The video is wrapped in a unique
interface that allows you to jump to any topic and also bookmark
individual sections for later review. The unique “Watch and Work”
mode shrinks the video into a small window to allow you to work
alongside in InDesign. Project files used in the lessons are
included on the disc so you can practice what you’ve learned, and
interactive review questions help reinforce freshly gained
knowledge.
