We'll use simple methods to create precise pattern designs. And complex patterns. We'll use a bounding box method to compose complex repeat patterns. Pattern effects. We'll use the appearance panel to control blend modes and add texture. And brand patterns. In this course, we'll create object-oriented pattern designs. How to use a bounding box method to compose complex repeat patterns. We'll take flat patterns and turn them into more immersive patterns, using effects via the appearance panel, and how pattern design can be used for products or merchandise. The methods in this course will help you create any pattern you can think of, and the only limit to pattern design is your imagination. Welcome to "Pattern Design: Breaking Down the Process."
