WHAT IS PROCREATE?

Procreate is what’s called a raster graphics application. This means that it deals directly with the pixels that form the image, combining them into layers to increase its power and versatility.

Every raster graphics painting application has limitations imposed by the application itself. This is where this course shines because you will see how to overcome most of these limitations by discovering tricks, tips, and insight acquired through real-world experience in the industry.

Understanding the theory of images is the first thing you need to thoroughly learn if you want to master a raster graphics application. You should be aware of the diverse options you have at your disposal, so you can solve problems.

Comparing the curriculum of this course with other courses, you will see this is the only course that teaches you about image theory such as pixels, color models, pixels, color depth, alpha channels, mattes, selections, and not just that.
