Overview

This course is for visual, creative people who need to start making HTML5 banner ads. I made this course for people that are struggling to get their heads around the new world of HTML5 advertising. This course is step by step with exercise files. I’ve saved a copy of each Adobe Animate file after every video so if you get lost you can compare your files to my completed files. At the end you’ll be able to create, test and upload standard banner ads.

This course is perfect for people completely new to the digital advertising world. We’ll cover all the basics. It’s also great for people who previously worked in Adobe Flash to produce SWF advertising.

Because this is such a new industry I’ll be around to help you with any questions. Use the forums on the pages and I’ll respond.

Thanks for considering my course. If you’re not sure if it’s right for you. Simply sign up, try it out and if you’re not happy I’ll refund you no problem. - Dan.

I discovered the world of design as an art student when I stumbled upon a lab full of green & blue iMac G3’s. My initial curiosity around using the computer to create ‘art’ developed into a full-blown passion, eventually leading me to become a digital designer and founder of Bring Your Own Laptop.

Sharing and teaching are a huge part of who I am. As a certified Adobe instructor, I've had the honor of winning multiple Adobe teaching awards at their annual MAX conference. I see Bring Your Own Laptop as the supportive community I wished for when I was first starting out and intimidated by design. Through teaching, I hope to bring others along for the ride and empower my students to bring their stories, labors of love, and art into the world.
True to my Kiwi roots, I've lived in many places, and currently, I reside in Ireland with my wife and kids.

Transcript

This course is for people that are struggling with a world  of HTML five banner ads. Uh, it's a bit of a mixed up world at the moment,  so I'm gonna kind of iron all that out  and show you exactly step by step what to do. I built this course for the visual person  for the right brain person. We'll look at the design side with all the features  that you can and can't do with HTML five. We'll look at file size and how to keep it nice and small,  and we'll go through all of the publishing,  which is probably the most tricky for people  that are self-taught to go out  to all the different ad networks,  including things like Google, double click  the Google AdWords, GDN Network and Seismic. Now, this course is not for coders or developers.

This is for creatives,  for the visual people, for the designers. If you wanna make some beautiful banner ads that work,  follow me.
