While a few years ago a Graphic Designer was someone sitting in front of the Computer all day creating logos or a Corporate Identity for her customers today there are many more ways and tools (you no longer need Adobe Illustrator but you can also use Affinity Designer) to earn money.

A Graphic Designer no longer "just" works for customers but also

• designs,

• paints,

• illustrates

• or draws her own designs

• and licenses them on websites such as Society6 or Redbubble.

On these websites a Graphic Designer can sell T-Shirts, Bed Covers, Mobile Phone Cases or Laptop Sleeves (just to name a few) without having to deal with the production or customer service.

Graphic Designers can also work in niches and design for needed products in the scrapbooking industry or sell graphic sets and templates for social media. What is necessary is that they have mastered a graphic design program such as Affinity Designer.

Luckily, today there is not just the industry standard Adobe Illustrator a graphic designer can use but also a program called Affinity Designer, its little brother! This program can keep up with Adobe Illustrator because it also has many of the functions the big brother has. Beside that, Affinity Designer is much cheaper and the designer doesn't have to pay a monthly subscription fee.

In this online class we'll have a look how you can successfully use Affinity Designer as a Graphic Designer. You do not just learn all the functions of the program but you also get video tutorials to try your hand on different projects. And while doing so you'll learn effortlessly how to do anything in the program!

Affinity Designer supports you with its intuitive handling and its many useful functions.

Especially if you have just decided to work for yourself and escape the 9-5 wheel Affinity Designer is a very good start. With all the functions the program offers it also allows you to use Adobe Illustrator if it will ever be necessary.
