We know what it’s like when you’re handed the latest version of the Adobe Creative Suite. You know it has amazing potential but you’ve barely had time to explore the last upgrade.

During this pro tricks course Daniel will show you the best, fastest and most efficient ways to support your design work flow. You’ll also have a chance to ask all the tricky questions of New Zealands most certified Adobe trainer.

This class is not for beginners but aimed at competent users who want to really make use of Creative Suite 6. In this demonstration you will be shown all the new CS6 & CS5.5 features. In addition you will learn lots of power shortcuts and hidden tricks which will cut hours off your working week.

One of the best parts of this course is that it allows you to ask all the hard questions. The ones that have been annoying you – you know the ones!

You know there must be a simpler way. Come in and let Daniel share with you the tricks and shortcuts in InDesign, Photoshop and Illustrator.
