What they’re saying:
Thanks to Ilene & CreativeLive, I now have a comprehensive understanding of typography and a critical eye for all things typographic which I will apply to all of the design elements of my business. I’ll also never look at a menu or book cover the same way!
Ilene was fantastic! She was very thorough and detailed in her lessons, while bringing her personality and humor to the subject of typography – which might be a dull topic if taught by someone else.

Ilene’s courses on Typography are jam-packed with excellent information that will elevate the quality of your work in print. She knows what’s current, but also what’s important in long-time standards, and why. Just an incredible amount of information! You will enjoy watching, but you will want to purchase because of the sheer amount of useful content.

This was a very informative and helpful class. I’ve worked in graphics for more than 10 years and there was still so much I was able to take from her lesson. Many thanks for making this happen, this was very inspiring!
