'Yes, I'm a Designer' is a YouTube channel dedicated to tutorials for artists and graphic designers. The video provides an introductory look into making illustrations in the design application, Adobe Illustrator. He gives the user a simple explanation of copying other works to help them practice. He describes how simple shapes and shadows can help create a good illustration. The first tool presented is the pen and how to create curvatures to the lines placed. His example is an outline of a flame. He then shows the feature for rounding corners of shapes make with the lines. He uses the shape of a star and shows right-click features that are included to edit the corner's radius, width, and curvature. By the middle of the video, he has explained how to fill in colors and how to add different variations of color around illustrations to give them depth. At the end, he uses much more advanced skills for graphic designers such as working with fonts and such.
The first video was helpful in giving me a small rundown on what possibilities can be done through the Illustrator application. Whereas, Youtube channel 'Andy Tells Things,' gives a quick guide to all the tools provided in Adobe Illustrator along with their keyboard shortcut codes. The guide is more of technical use for all of them instead of creativity, yet still helpful for beginners. He encourages in the video for everyone to take time out their day to learn these tools at their own pace and only use his videos to get commonground on what Adobe Illustrator has to offer.
Paola Kassa is a Graphic Design YouTuber who specializes in Adobe Illustrator for her career. She opens the video with an explanation for why she has switched from Adobe Photoshop to Adobe Illustrator. She answers concerns for those who are starting out on Illustrator. While she shows the process of the application, she explains on the side how Illustrator's versatility has helped improve her design skills. She mentions how the application invites the user to practice their skills in diverse forms.

My business cards were inspired by cards I'd happily give to people I meet by chance in the street. It touches on a lot of my personality, especially the Monet one.
Before the internet, computers had been around since the mid-1950s. During those times, there was limited communication with the few computers that existed around the world. Computers could only interact with other devices if they were nearby, meaning that there had to be a physical connection between them to communicate. J.C. R. Licklider was the one to propose a network with no physical bounds that could go beyond the local devices [1]. After his proposal, the government and MIT began the first developments of packet switches that helped develop networks that contributed to what we call the Internet. Packet-switching was a way for people to break down information data into packets that could then be redistributed across many networks. These networks included: ARPANET, NPL, and UUCP, all played a significant part in the merging of networks to create a global Transmission Control Program (TCP) also known as internetworking or, in modern terms, the internet. Many were involved in the e
Hi... My name is Jennifer. If I gave you my full government name then nobody would know how to pronounce it. I am from San Juan, Puerto Rico. A very small island that is part of the Caribbean archipelago and has approximately 5 million citizens currently. At the moment, I am a senior Public Relations major at UT [just transferred] and hopefully, a future Master's degree here as well. I came here from a small religious liberal arts college about 20 mins from UT, whose values and morals didn't align with mine. Apart from my transferring journey, I am a violinist, an activist, and a compulsive spender. Small details about me: I used to do sailboating, I love iced coffee, and I am half Puerto Rican and half Cuban. I hope to learn different media tools for creating my own content. I believe using these types of programs shows a multiskill when entering the workforce, which in turn shows a company you're not a one-trick pony. It also opens up the possibility of working freela
