[@susancelebrateslife]

Great tute, took me a little while to figure out I had to change my tool menu from Basic to Advanced... just in case anyone else can't find the tools you use in the beginning

[@jaguragaous]

I thought it was worth an hour. After spending a day pausing and watching it, this is worth a career. Will really watch again. Thank you

[@41peyton]

This was one of the best Illustrator tutorials I've ever watched! I am a self-taught graphic designer, so I've got pockets of knowledge that allow me to do what I need to do, but I've also got quite a few gaps. This tutorial goes through all of the important tools without being exhausting. It filled a TON of gaps for me in about an hour!

[@hankmoody9313]

Agreed. I'd normally ignore a video like this as too basic, but I learned a lot of little things I wouldn't have ever figured out on my own.

[@sanninaheemot7649]

Great job

[@Hamza_AliKhan]

got an order and I didn't knew how to make logos and then watched this video and learned illustrator and made it for client in less then 5 hours , So Thank you Envato Tuts+

[@maxwellrattet744]

59:20 Instead of creating custom swatches with the lines, you could make the lines/abstract shape a pattern and select the option to size the pattern to the art. It behaves much better that way

[@williebruno2779]

At around 1:08:47, another way to round out that corner is to use the direct selection tool (A). Just select that specific anchor at the upper right, a circle with a dot in it's center will appear. Pull that circle 45 degrees downward opposite (in this case left), and it will start rounding that corner. How much roundness you want depends how far you pull the circle.

[@Elbahjaacademy]

Good tutorial! Few notes: 58:52 (Use the pathfinder with the intersect option and you'll be left with the design you wanted in a square form) 1:00:41 Trim only the right and bottom edges so that you don't create white spaces when the shape repeats itself

[@googleguy08]

14 minutes in and this is more helpful than courses I've paid for.

[@althaft9346]

59:43 sideways line works when you double click the pattern Swatch then tick the size tile to art and move tile with art. Also it helps me a lot thank you.

[@generativepixels23]

Practice and learn something are the result of success. I am a graphic designer with having 1 year experience. But when I see Your tutorials , I realize that I'm just nothing to those designs. I'm still a junior In my career. These are so amazing. Thank you so much.

[@hostylergroup6880]

I strongly recommend this channel to the pros and the beginners alike. I learned many new things today.

[@ochenjonah]

52:42 got me smiling a lot "I think he is asking me" Thank you for this wonderful insight

[@InvincibleKim]

This is honestly SOOOOOO good. Half an hour in and I learned so much, unbelievable.

[@tangled6931]

Illustrator is probably one of the MOST useful programs in the Adobe spectrum, but I'm not sure I will ever feel like I will master it. I don't use it every day, so I struggle when I need to. Thanks to videos like this, I can get through it. Thank you.

[@dylanpereira1319]

NTS: PATHFINDER 30:01 Join, minus front, intersect, exclude (opposite of Intersect) 32:10 Divide - where the shapes overlap are separated into separate shapes 33:40 Shape Builder Tool - Combine separate shapes into one 47:30 Smooth Tool - smoothes out a line 49:10 Knife Tool - Can cut apart shapes like a knife 56:50 Add Shapes/Patterns to Swatches (kinda sucks but OK)

[@emmanuelankomah3621]

So far the best tutorial on KZbin you could prescribe for empty headed person who desire to create logo is from this channel. You're marvellous. Thanks You. I think I know everything about logo making by now😀😀

[@gi.a]

The fact that its doesnt have an ads. Thank you so much! I've learn so much😭💖

[@flatmike1680]

Im good at drawing but i had no contact with illustrator before and took a job to design a logo. I was so frustrated clicking around and achieving nothing but nonsense. This tutorial covers a lot and really helped me out. Thanks for that

[@MuhammadRizwan-jv4zh]

This is the most helpful illustrator tutorial I could ever watch. You just made illustrator a whole lot easier for me. Thanks man, you rock.

[@denizgulmez8862]

I ve been looking photoshop and illustrator videos, and buying some courses. but this is gold. literally. thank you

[@learn.with.osamah]

This is one of the best tutorials for all stages. Thanks for your effort and offering it free.

[@kjtubed]

This is the best Illustrator tutorial on KZbin... I've been looking for something like this for months!!! Thank you so much for sharing, and please keep on sharing videos like this one!

[@jingyiyuan8515]

This one video taught me more stuff than AI course in my collage.

[@sobhas94]

I agree. My faculty was terrible at illustrator. This is too good.

[@code2win854]

I tried a few paid courses for over 2 weeks and then stumbled upon this this was the best 1 hour recap I have come across amazing tutorials

[@jspatricia68]

Your tutorial is the most comprehensive one I've ever watched! You are such a great teacher! I do treasure the guidance you provide. Liked and subscribed! (Best regards from Indonesia)

[@muhammadzulqarnain5856]

Complete introduction of all essential tools of illustrator in just 50 initial minutes and well explanation of tricky way of logo designing in rest of time. Effective way of teaching. Thank you so much. God bless you.

[@mechanicalbreaks8319]

Free Knowledge is priceless. Thanks for taking your time to show all this

[@dawnecaldwell1121]

Creating that pattern swatch is blowing my mind. If only I knew about that years ago. Thank you for this video.

[@xannyed]

For someone that already knows the basics the logo creation starts at 1:02:30

[@likejlikea5966]

Streamed live Jun 8, 2017 & I just discovered this video Dec 18, 2019 and it's still fresh... Thanks for this Masterpiece! Liked and subscribed

[@robinherrick2177]

Thanks for the tutorial. A good tip for zooming in and out is ALT mouse scroll wheel. You don't need to fill a shape to make it a clipping mask - the clipping shape doesn't need a fill or a stroke. I can't get the stripy fills to work either.

[@jitdas906]

You are an amazing teacher.... If anyone learn this only , he can run a family.. i will definitely recommend this channel to everyone.. it is not only helpful it will make anyone master in AI

[@feliciaclayton1459]

Just discovered Dansky and I love his tutorials. I am learning so much more.

[@mdroman4327]

Same as you. He is great.

[@keyabel2515]

Almost 3 years later and this video is gold for learning, enjoyed much !!! Learned a lot of stuff, I can do a decent logo. For watchers, put the speed to 1.5 and still you'll be able to enjoy the video (in case you feel like it's a long video).

[@12darshan12]

Made my first logo after Months of Struggle Loved it.

[@Dila_98x]

I'm a beginner and started with this video, this is great tutorial and you are greatly explainer, teacher. Thank you so much. Love from Sri Lanka ❤️❤️❤️

[@coffeewithchris7338]

This was the most thorough tutorial I've ever watched. Amazing work man!

[@dotsona07]

That technique with inverting the circle to cut it out is great, I have never thought of that!

[@chontichap.9386]

The best AI tutorial I've ever come acrossed. Please make more tutorials on how to create brochures. ❤

[@pongnaps2088]

I agree on you !

[@potemkin8606]

Nice tutorial but I did not have curved line tools. 6:56 can you please tell why ❓.

[@islamfahmy8520]

one of the best tutorials i have ever watched , if not the best , highly appreciate it

[@James4President]

Dude, 01:27:00! He released the secrets. That makes your business 10x more professional. That final package with multiple colors, formats, resolutions. Great tutorial, learnt so much. I've used Photoshop for logo design for a long time, and have now realised the error of my ways. Definitely switching to Illustrator. Speaking of... I actually have a logo to design right now!

[@lalaneverquit]

Very useful and incredible tutorial. Even after 4 years, it's still the best tutorial in 2021 and it will still be the best ever. Thank you.

[@sohailanjum3156]

use crop option after getting shape by cliping mask that will fix the box those are coming up. I am talking about what you are doing at 59:00 in video. Thanks . your video is quite helpful for me

[@danabee3775]

Oh my Gosh ... this youtube and well done tutorials ... I can have my Groundhog Day just watching all these and acquire all these skills without paying for expensive courses, going far places, etc. etc. ... I am sharing you, dude! A job well done! :-)

[@highlyinspired6486]

This is the best tutorial I’ve seen so far. Thank you so much!

[@evali2680]

So far this was the most helpful tutorial. Thank you!

[@JessyingAround]

hey, first of all thanks for the amazing tutorial! I didnt understand one thing tho... How do I see the outline on a windows computer, please? On 19:02 you said something like comand+ctrl+"white" (didnt get it ig) but on windows pc we don't have comand... edit: nvmnd, I figured it out. If anyone has the same problem: outline view = ctrl+y leave outline view (pixel view) = alt+ctrl+y

[@kyletaylor73]

Absolutely game changing! I feel like I can create almost anything in Illustrator now! Thank you so much 😊

[@baiku_audios]

This is the most comprehensive illustrator's tutorial i have ever come across. Big up man.

[@techaztech2335]

Best 1.5 hrs spent on youtube.

[@mateokovacic8330]

You are an Artist in simplifying things it was a pleasure to watch your tutorial

[@MikePickettDesignCo]

Great tutorial! One quick question... for the top corners on the final logo - your techniques are good methods but why wouldn't you just use the live corner radius tools built in to Illustrator?

[@johnson6099]

I actually learned a lot! Your explanation of things made it simple and fun!

[@andybaughman3719]

Great video. 4 years later, and it's still helping. The "apply to swatches" and "distribute shapes evenly" really help.

[@envatotuts]

Glad it helped!

Thanks for landing me smoothly into illustrator and making me feel ready to use it. I'm corel user, i wanna move to illustrator for some reason. Thank YOU!

[@guerita0815]

I know this was posted long ago, but I THINK that to avoid that odd looking gap 1:00:55 with the stripes leave the edge/border on either left OR right side AND the top OR bottom... I hope this helps..I am not a graphic designer or anything but I feel like it would work.

Instead of using shortcuts, You can use Alt+Scroll wheel to zoom in and out on illustrator BTW, As self-taught graphic designer, this video helped me to grasp the tool essence in very clear way 💯

[@envatotuts]

Hi! Thanks for sharing the tip with us, that's super helpful! 🙌 And it's awesome to hear the video helped you grasp the tool's essence! 💯 Keep up the great work!

[@Cpejenan]

that was an AMAZING tutorial! illustrator just became an easier and friendlier world to me! THANK YOU SO MUCH SIR!

[@asimsdesign]

@1:11:00 instead of using pentool you could have created a circle from inner circle's top to outer circle's bottom then divide the shapes, for the shadow gradients copy and paste in front the shapes then use transparent to black gradient on those overlapped shapes just as a transparent gradient filter.. tc

Thanks... You are the best teacher, its perfect tutorial ... May God bless you.... (Regard fr Indonesia)

Amazing course the beginning was a bit fast as I'm new to illustrator but got the hang of it Just a question I'm on 1:09:40 and trying to move the circle to line up with the edge but can't I've removed the smart guides but the movement isn't letting me line it up with the edge is there an other trick I can try?
