If I had to pick one feature that most of our students are struggling with it would definitely be Masking.

This is a technique even experienced designers are not utilising enough in Adobe applications, however this is a crucial element of working non-destructively or in other words professionally. So I decided that I will cover everything you need to know about masking in Illustrator, Photoshop and InDesign in this course.

This is a streamlined, hands-on course focusing on mastering all the various masking techniques in Adobe design applications. I will be walking you through everything step-by-step and you will get all the exercise files so you can follow along.
