Five Realism Tricks That Compound
DKNG has taught thousands of students how to make flat vector art leap off the page. The five techniques—gradients, clipping masks, custom brushes, the envelope tool—aren't exotic. What makes them powerful is how they layer. A gradient becomes a shadow becomes dimension becomes believability.
If you're new to Illustrator, you get the fundamentals. If you're experienced, you get fresh angles. Either way, you leave with concrete methods to test immediately on your own work. It's the kind of class that pays dividends every time you open the app.
