Graphic Design for Lunch™ is a series of short video courses you can study in bite size pieces such as at lunchtime. In this course you'll see how to make a custom calendar in Illustrator featuring patterns you have made (or downloaded). You will learn to use grids to layout a design and for text and how to assemble the final calendar ready for printing. You'll also see how to apply a three color color scheme to your design in a way that it can be changed quickly and easily. Although this class was designed for a 2017 calendar you can change the dates and year to make a calendar suitable for any year!
