About the Instructor

Emir Ayouni

Emir Ayouni is the owner of Growcase and affiliated with The Forefathers Group™, a global design studio franchised in Tulsa, New Jersey & Gothenburg.

Emir's love of illustration and design started as a kid.

"I drew my own Garbage Pail Kids cards and MAD Magazine Covers and just dreamt about one day getting to do something like that for a living. So I guess I was always into design, just not professionally."

"Fast forward, through the teen years (when beer, moonshine and friends were far more exciting than pencils), to 1997, when I was studying in Stockholm and all the computers there had Photoshop installed. So on my off time, I started to learn it by myself and from there, I schooled myself on the various Adobe software available and made the transition from pen and paper to mouse and monitor."

    Good advice

    Some good advice from a talented designer. I noticed that the references to his Pinterest boards aren’t currently active.

    So much good info!

    I'm an experienced graphic designer, but most of my professional work has been at an agency where I've made pieces for existing brands rather than focus on a responsive branding package. This webinar was insightful on both macro and micro levels. To get a view of the process and see questions answered and the astonishing amount of bonus content is incredibly helpful. As always, RetroSupply has gone above and beyond to provide excellent information from an accomplished pro. Highly recommend!

    Great for newbies, not so much for professionals.

    I think this course has a great amount of insight on the process of creating a great brand presentation, and Emir is a fantastic designer. However, if you're already doing this professionally, I don't think there's too much to gain from this course.

    If you're a designer looking to start working professionally, this would be a great course, otherwise I'd probably pass on this.
