This approach immediately set us apart from other creative software training providers who claim superiority simply through their paid affiliation with the software companies whose products they provide training in. We love Adobe and Apple software, but if you have ever read any of their software manuals or training material you will recognise that they are not educators. THE PROFESSIONALS CHOICE WHO ARE WE? Adobe Certified Expert Tutors and Designers All of our courses and training material have been developed by ourselves here at Platform 39. Our course authors are design graduates with postgraduate certificates in education. Many have taught at prestigious design institutions such as the Royal College of art, the University of the arts and the London Design Museum. In recognition of our consistently high student feedback and reviews we were delighted to have been awarded ‘Trusted Provider’ status by both Hotcourses and Lovemycourse London course listing websites. Platform 39 3 Westland Place London N1 7LP 3 020 3397 4567 www.platform39.com [email protected] WHERE ARE WE? Platform 39 at Westland Place Studios, Hoxton. A unique and truly creative learning environment. We’re different Our fully equipped digital training studio is located within the historic Westland Place Studios, situated next door to Jamie Oliver’s Fifteen restaurant and just five minutes from Old St Roundabout in the heart of London’s ‘Tech City’. We know that companies don’t like to lose their staff for days at a time which is why we provide most of our courses as one day programs. Where other training companies will try to get you to pay more for two or three day courses - only to pad them out with obscure information from software training manuals that you simply would never use - we keep things concise and focus purely on what you need to know, the skills you actually wanted to know and that you will regularly use in your day-to-day working life. Each one-day course is a comprehensive learning package which includes full course notes and a certificate of completion. Because we offer each subject at three levels - from introductory to advanced - it’s easy to find the right level and, if necessary, continue your progression to the next level at a later, convenient date. After more than twenty years, Westland Place Studios is one of the oldest established art and design studios in Hoxton. A hive of creativity; our studios are home to an eclectic mix of designers, illustrators, painters, printmakers, photographers and sculptors. Their work spans a large range of art disciplines and creative approaches making this an exciting creative environment for all working in the building as well those visiting.

Platform 39 3 Westland Place London N1 7LP 5 020 3397 4567 www.platform39.com [email protected] Learn from the CREATIVE PROFESSIONALS Visit us and learn from the creative professionals Effective learning guaranteed Our Adobe certified expert tutors are also professional designers with active practices, this is something that we absolutely insist upon. If I tutor hasn’t used the software he or she teaches in a professional context, they simply won’t be knowledgeable of real-world situations and problems encountered that the Adobe/Apple software manual just won’t have answers for. This is just another example of what sets Platform 39 apart and above other training providers. We are so confident that our proven design software training methods will not only deliver the results you need but exceed expectations that we introduced the Platform 39 Learning Guarantee. In the unlikely event that you should ever feel that you didn’t learn everything as described in any of our course listings, you are welcome to come and retake the course again for free - any time within the following six months of your original booking date.

Its uses range from creating intricate photo-realistic montages, digital paintings and drawings to time saving complex editing of large batches of photos. Peoples image editing needs have inevitably changed over time, the internet and social media channels didn’t exist when Photoshop was first created. Upon it’s launch it made an immediate impact on the creative community. Suddenly, for the first time, designers and photographers were able to perform image editing tasks without resorting to high end, prohibitively expensive equipment. Adobe Adobe Photoshop is the go-to application for image editing and graphic design. It’s used for image editing, enhancing or manipulation and is also widely used for website design. Platform 39 offers three courses in Adobe Photoshop CC. The industry standard image editor for over 25 years, Photoshop still remains the industry standard program in its field. The word “Photoshop” has come is used in common language as a verb as in “to Photoshop an image,” “photoshopping,” and “Photoshop contest,” etc. Photoshop enables you to edit and compose raster images (images made up of a grid of pixels) in multiple layers and supports masks, alpha compositing and several colour models including RGB, CMYK, Lab colour space (with capital L), spot colour and duotone.

In addition to raster graphics, it has limited abilities to edit or render text, vector graphics (especially through clipping path), 3D graphics and video. The latest version of Photoshop CC includes a host of useful new features including the ability to easily save and share to the cloud - not only your files - but also customised tool settings, brushes, workspaces, fonts, styles, colour swatches, and presets.

Platform 39 offers three courses in Adobe Illustrator CC. Adobe Illustrator is a vector drawing program and because of it’s vector graphics based accuracy it is widely used for typography, logo design, illustration, diagrams, charts, pattern making and technical drawing. Illustrator uses mathematical equations to draw out shapes resulting in vector graphics scalable without any loss of quality. Unlike the familiar gif, jpeg, tiff, etc images – known as raster images – vector images are not made up of a grid of pixels, they are instead created by paths – a combination of a starting point and an ending point with a combination of shapes, angles and lines in-between. These paths relate to each other by mathematical formulas, allowing them to be scaled and rescaled infinitely. This lossless scaling makes Adobe Illustrator a more ideal program for companies concerned with branding than Adobe Photoshop, since they can create images and logos that can be small enough to be a tiny icon or large enough to appear on a billboard. Contrary to many people’s preconceptions, Adobe Illustrator doesn’t actually require any previous knowledge of drawing or painting. You can use Illustrator to produce freehand drawings. Platform 39 offers four courses in Adobe Illustrator CC. Illustrator allows one to import a photograph to use as a guide to trace and recolour. With Adobe Illustrator CC, you can express your vision with shapes, colour, effects, and typography. Adobe Illustrator CC is the industry’s premier vector drawing application for creating scalable graphics that scale effortlessly across media. You can work efficiently and move easily among Adobe applications and experiment freely with perspective, image tracing, transparent gradients, patterns, brushes, and strokes so you can make fast work of your most complex designs. Create your artwork in Adobe Illustrator when you want to draw smooth curves that stay sharp when scaled to any size, detailed line work, information graphics, and symbol-based artwork and patterns that you can easily update.

This one day course is suitable for those who are new to post production and will enable you to create incredible motion graphics and visual effects. Adobe After Effects is an essential tool for motion graphics and visual effects. It offers a fast, flexible, affordable 2D and 3D compositing and animation toolset to help you develop your creative ideas with speed and control, and deliver high-quality results for film, video, multimedia, or the Web. It is very popular with video makers — almost an industry standard in the mid-professional level. Only productions with extremely high demands or large budgets would need anything more sophisticated. After Effects is perfectly capable of producing high-quality compositions for television programs, commercials and even feature films. It was used in movies like Sin City, Iron Man, Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow, Stranger Than Fiction, many gaming studios also rely on Adobe After Effects to create cut scenes in their games. After Effects uses a similar general workflow as most video editing software: Each project includes a collection of media assets that are arranged in layers on a timeline. Where After Effects differs from normal editors is that it is specifically designed for special effects. Although After Effects does let you perform most common editing tasks, its real purpose is to create advanced effects and composites rather than just cutting shots together. Typically, you would do the bulk of your editing work in an application such as Premiere Pro and use After Effects to work on smaller sections of the video that require advanced tools. Adobe After Effects shares many of the same features with other Adobe programs, such as creating shapes, that are defined by bezier curves. Like Photoshop and Illustrator, After Effects can import and manipulate many image formats, filters, and adjustments. After Effects integrates with other Adobe Software Programs such as Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, Premiere Pro, Encore and Flash. It also works with third party 3D programs like Cinema 4D, Lightwave 3D, and Autodesk 3D Max.

When Tim Berners specified HTML and wrote the browser and server software in late 1990, the language HTML was only used to add structure to text. HTML is an acronym for Hypertext Markup Language.

To meet this demand, the browser producers (at that time Netscape and Microsoft) invented new HTML tags such as for example which differed from the original HTML tags by defining layout - and not structure. This also led to a situation where original structure tags such as were increasingly being misused to layout pages instead of adding structure to text. Many new layout tags such as
