Basil: Visitor, it’s hard to be creative if you don’t understand how the tools work.

Strategy & Advice: This is foundational material for the course and will have an impact on your long-term success. Open Illustrator and work along with the videos. Don’t just watch and skate over the surface. Dig deep and play along! Its impossible to learn these tools if you don’t use them

Hint: Virtually every video contains extra tips and tricks (even if you think you already know this tool).

Mastery: Use words or imagery to demonstrate mastery on your blog.

Warning: The Boss will recognize Fool’s Gold because your lack of mastery will be evident as he watches you work. Just posting doesn’t mean you mastered it. Be sure to understand what mastery actually means! Don’t even think of joining the FGPA!*
