Affinity Designer Tutorial #01-Getting Started Video Lecture | Affinity Photo Tutorials: Basics to Expert - Professional Skills

hey guys I'm here bringing you the first
tutorial of my affinity designer
tutorial as of this moment I have three
affinity photo tutorials up and you can
feel free to check those out but I
thought I'd also want to get a little
affinity designer tutorial series going
as well so we can have sort of a side by
side thing going on the channel now when
you open up a finish designer you're
greeted with this startup panel and
you're greeted by some artwork by these
fine graphic designers and so let's just
open up a new document you just hit OK
and affinity designer is different than
affinity photo in the fact that it's a
vector program and it feels like more
vector aspects such as less pixel based
and in the images and given things and
more based in shapes and creating shapes
and drawings now when you first open up
you're going to be greeted by the draw
persona and you're given these tools you
can do things like create shapes and and
it shapes and edit things about it you
could color them different things
there's a draw tool there's the pen tool
you can just create random stuff and
this is with the dropper so nice for
draw persona is mainly going to be used
for things in the Creative Suite so
you're going to be doing things like
creating different shapes models
together you're gonna be doing things
like creating your drawings another
persona right here is when you come to
the pixel persona and this is going to
be editing pixels inner this is where
the vector program becomes less based on
vector programs and more pixel based and
there's things like burn tools and
different pixel based tools and then
here's the export persona and you can
just export different things for so when
you come out to the draw persona here
your top bar is all based on your images
so this one allows you to flip it up and
down
dating you can align different things
together and these are other tools for
the top in the pixel persona they stay
exactly the same and there's only these
ones now in affinity designer there's
still all of these panels right here and
there's some different ones there's no
adjustments panel like there was an
affinity photo but uh there's different
swatches strokes and brushes you can
choose from you still have the effects
and some styles you have the layers
panel you're masking tools and making
groups of layers so everything you need
to do to create a sort of design or
anything that you need that is not
necessarily going to be a photo based
thing maybe you're trying to work on
drawing or anything this is the program
for you and I hope you enjoyed this
