Summary
Wow, this has been a packed chapter! By now, you should have several graphics created that you can use for your business, including a profile frame, a Facebook banner, an animated Instagram story, a business card, and a magazine or leaflet advert. While you’ve been creating these, you have also learned how to correctly size a Facebook banner and that the platform compresses images. You’ve also learned how to create a profile frame using a circle element. You’ve seen two different ways to add animation to a design and how to create a business card ready for print by knowing how to add bleed marks and crop marks and how to flatten a PDF. We’ve also looked at creating an advert-style poster, which involves looking for different types of elements to use.
Earlier on in this chapter, I mentioned you could add videos to your design as part of the Animation section, so that’s exactly what we are going to be looking at in the next chapter.
