Class introduction


This is a class for beginners in Photoshop & Illustrator that contains only the “essentials” you really need so that you can start designing today. The Dihara class focused on just the essentials so that we could start designing right away from today. In addition to simply creating by following examples, we prepared classes from a beginner's perspective so that you can understand and use the basic concepts of each function.

Even if you have no design experience at all, you can naturally complete various design works and learn how to design in a trendy way while taking classes. Master the “easiest and most fun way to design” in a short time with the Dihara class!

2 reasons why this class is special


❶ Practical curriculum perfect for beginners

  • “Why use this feature?” Here are some points that beginners are curious about.

Most courses aimed at beginners often explain the features of the program without an accurate explanation. However, in this class, I focused on accurately grasping this concept of why this function was used here and how this function can be applied. If you only understand the concepts, you will be able to freely handle the program even after attending the course.


  • We've prepared trendy and useful examples.

What if the examples you try to make during the course are boring? Even after listening to the end of the class, it is difficult to apply it later. The Dihara class consists of examples reflecting the latest design trends, so feel free to use them!


  • I've prepared examples that you can use right away in practice.

The fundamental goal of the class is for you to apply your own style directly after attending the course. However, if the topic itself is out of touch with practice, or if it is an example that is difficult to apply, the learning ability is poor. Dihara classes are designed only to be used directly in practice to enhance usability.





❷ A guidebook that will improve work efficiency and quality at once

  • The main shortcut files that will speed up the work, even if you are a beginner like an expert

It provides a file containing the main shortcuts of Photoshop that are actually used in practice. If you look at the shortcut file for the first time, “When do you memorize this many things...?” You might think about it, though. Don't worry! Because I'm going to mention shortcuts over and over again throughout the class! If you use shortcuts while listening to classes like that, most of the shortcuts in the file will naturally fit in your head and hands.

(*Available as a PDF file.)




  • An incumbent designer's best font & color guidebook, full of essentials

What font should I use for my title? Would this color match? We provide a guidebook with the best font and color combinations for each situation that eliminates design concerns once and for all.

(*This guidebook is provided as a PDF file, not a physical book.)
