aye I am way To in for this

[@Craighgbnn]

Some advice when it comes to tutorials.. Keep the content on screen at all times. Your indesign workspace is big enough for you to do picture in picture. Keeping cutting away from what you're doing to full screen of you isn't helpful in a tutorial.

[@solipse.]

yeah completely agree, I think i understand why he is cutting to his face cam. It helps people to maintain attention and its a very easy way to do.

[@grimeyx]

As someone who works in a printing press; please, please, PLEASE add bleeds and safezones to your artwork, no matter the size, if you intend on having it printed. The amount of people we have coming in to the shop trying to print something that doesn't have a bleed or a safezone would astound you and while we would never turn the job down, we do often charge extra for design services/file handling. The bleeds are there to prevent thin white lines around your finished posters/leaflets that can appear during the cutting process, and the safezone prevents us cutting off any of your text/image that you want kept in.

[@curateddaisies4128]

How do you decide how much bleed should be in the design?

[@Estebanmdp100]

pls provide more info

[@grimeyx]

[@DavidRussell323]

Thanks for the video--love to watch your work unfold, and this was a fun way to see your thought process as you designed this poster. And those adobe pins look so cool; I'd be very excited to have one for my collection. Looking forward to the next video as always^^

[@davidpruitt5885]

It's awesome to see this all the way through! You killed it!!

[@ell.mp4]

InDesign is my favourite Adobe programme so I'd love one of the pins! It always surprises how unappreciated and overlooked it is, its one of the most powerful tools a design has!

[@petermiano9796]

You make things look super simple. Thank you. I need to learn In Design.

[@akinloluwaokunsanya2697]

Will Paterson always giving us quality content 😀 thank you

[@simoarif9153]

Great video as always, thanks! And getting one of those pins would be great, thanks again!

[@danipeitch]

Oh my gosh man, I really didn't knew InDesign was able to do all of those tricky things! And those pins look awesome :DD

[@Platinumizeyourworld]

I really love the pins. I'm from Tahiti in French Polynesia (lost in the Pacific ocean), and I like the idea that one of those pins may travel overseas for standing far from his home.

[@MishikiCx]

This short video was actually extremely helpful and had new useful information I wasn't taught in University or in other tutorials. Thank you! ❣

[@willpatersondesign]

Glad it was helpful!

[@bigcoronel8215]

Your contents are awesomely very helpful, thank you 😀 keep creating! And I'd love to have one of that cool stuff :D

Love the video, I working in InDesign everyday and still learning new stuff about it 😁 And that pin looks awesome, would be nice to get one 🙌🏻

[@uddhavg2258]

Wow I use Indesign mainly everyday and didn't even realise about its anniversary Thank you so much for the videos

[@garrettledbetter7086]

First! Thanks for making these videos man, you always seem to upload when I'm in a block. Cheers man 🙌

[@willpatersondesign]

ha, I secretly know when you're in creative block :')

[@kapekm]

Okay not gonna lie been creating all my posters in illustrator till now. I never even heard of this thing. Nice video :))

[@Bambibol]

yay InDesign pins look awesome!

[@artsaavy9124]

Love the poster design!

[@musicvstime9559]

thanks man you clarify lots of things clearly

[@zeluisbelo]

Thanks for all the knowledge you share. You’re making me a better designer. I would love the chance to win one of those badges!

[@prakharshrivastava20]

Great tut! Thanks ❤️

[@wendymallas4755]

This is going to come in very handy, Will. I’m currently doing an MA in illustration and creating artefacts including enamel pins. Posters are obviously another type of artefact and this vid has given me some good ideas. So thank you. Feel free to send a pin my way! 😉

[@minime1137]

Love the poster !

[@TheWolf6200]

i love the video and i love indesign... and i love those pins XD

[@brucecooper8559]

Never knew how much InDesign could do on the creative side! 😳

[@rexykoh]

Never been a user of Id before. And i think noq you got me hooked.

[@danfox6137]

I've always used "paste in place" to add images to shapes, I had no idea that you could reassign a shape to an image or text box! I presume that's the same thing that the rectangle frame box does? Thanks Will 👍

[@ionaleah]

Greetings from New Zealand Yes winning the pin would be great use indesign regularly

[@Ondori]

I would love to have a chance to win one of the adobe badges. I'm currently in my 3rd year of graphic design and I can't live without Indesign anymore. It's a really powerful software!

[@gablp30stm]

I'm hype to try inDesign right now!

[@blastoi5e]

If you want to pursue graphic design as a career you better know inDesign, inSide and Out.

[@Sarsar3303]

I would love to win one of the pin badges, I'm learning InDesign in my second year of my degree and loving it so far!

[@Elbown]

I love creative cloud, especially with Fresco now!

[@victorcast2467]

I've been using indesign just for multiple page documents, but the video gave me a new pont of view. PS. I love Indesign and I want a badge, please!

[@samanthavolpe183]

pins pins! I want a pin! Thanks for the tutorial!!

[@alohaarts]

This was a cool video!

[@JoshuaisMajor]

I would love a chance to grab one of those awesome Adobe pins if you haven't sent them all out yet! Great video, as always!

[@simonchandler4666]

really useful, thanks mate. The content designation tool is a lifesaver.

[@willpatersondesign]

You're welcome!

[@DavidBridle]

Epic yes please!!

[@Enomyx]

Great Poster :)

[@VishuaLz]

Great video, very informative! Would be sick if I could win one of those pins for my bag

[@dynakunai9989]

Helpful!

[@claudschgi4794]

Hey Will! great new use case for me ( never worked with that grid) :) on my daily base is think i use indesign to casual ...^^ nvm. Now being a smart aleck: You might missed the edge trimming for production :P :P have a nice evening!

[@willpatersondesign]

Thanks! I did indeed miss it ;)

[@ninarubydabravolski1773]

As I understand this tutorial is not for beginners, is it?

[@leightonemitchellify]

Nice, thanks! What is that background tune?

[@liet256]

I learned Indesign since 3 years now, and .. wow ! I can tell that I learned so much on this video. Would love more videos and tips about this software because they aren't enough videos about Indesign, the work flow, advanced grids method...like this way. Thank you so much for sharing this !

[@romanro4316]

Can inDesign be used to create larger posters like B1?

[@MoritzMMM]

These pins are dope and the video too

[@j44m33]

what is the point doing this in Id over photoshop or illustrator?

[@Foxuniverso]

i use affinity publisher and designer and to be honest the workflow feels slow with adobe, i never thought id say that xD i used to be an adobe fanboy but i have to say, affinity is pretty dang solid!

[@Dweebix]

I can do this in Photoshop itself in like 2 minutes though?

[@MrHale]

I've been using Illustrator for years and I've tried to learn some InDesign, but I've never understood why InDesign and not Illustrator? All these things you can do in Illustrator and since I've been using it for years I can do it way faster when using Illustrator. Is there something I'm missing?

[@fiszu12]

I believe it was made just for indesign anniversary/promotion. Easely illustrator is far better for this kind of work

[@MrAAMNNITAllahabad]

@will Paterson can you tell me what is the actual theme of your poster. Like just having the shapes on the poster won't suffice, how the shapes were connected among themselves. Also, many designers believes on minimalism but your poster was exact contrary to it...? So, how can you justify your poster was a balance one!?

[@leigel3]

That's one bad hat, Harry.

[@adnankulin9154]

Well I don't have that layout option and I can't create any guides

[@juanpoza3603]

:) noooiiiceee

[@tweju2146]

8:37 How do I only select one object from all?? anyone please... He has explained well but he has hidden some of the things, which I had to struggle to find out what was hidden

[@MrRainbowBunny]

As someone completely new to InDesign you lost me at 4:00. I chose the color but my poster remains black with blue'ish rectangles. Next time i see your screen, yours is pink and the left side panel has changed a bit from what is was at 4:00. Maybe its my fault for not watching a basic beginner tutorial first?

[@steveperkins6308]

Hi Will. Are You still active as i am looking for some advice on a poster i am trying to design

[@philmojii]

Ha I'm here for the pin 🙂

[@ericchengtv3506]

This looks like PewDiePie

[@abdallahghazal9711]

i want to win ♥

[@reinada7640]

*Sad Affinity Publisher noises*

[@bowserfireballs8177]

Helpful but why are you cutting away from what your doing to show your face no disrespect of course but its hard to follow instructions that your only doing offscreen

[@kristapsbalkovskis4250]

Buy asets, haha thats funny

[@blastoi5e]

yes lets not talk about bleeds, fuggin typical youtube designer goof

[@zahaib22]

Terrible Tutorial, you speak too quickly, you don't show slow enough what you are clicking on, and for a beginner its hard to follow even with pausing, rewinding, etc.

[@Mrjojojo0]

70% of the video is your face, smh would a tutorial with just the screen.

[@pappa6085]

you talk too much
