A person stands back to us, in front of a wall with design artifacts tacked up on it.

I’m in a User Experience Design MPS at MICA and a few people in my cohort are switching careers and haven’t ever worked with design tools or in graphic design before. I put together my playlist of basic classes I thought would be good to learn from/gap fill and some Sketch resources I use, and thought I’d publish it to share with everyone.

Lynda.com (free for MICA students)

For those that are interested in Game Design
My Lynda Design Class Starter Pack (60-ish classes on Design, Adobe XD and AI, Sketch, Invision, etc)

Skillshare (30 day trial!)

Draplin classes (all super GREAT):
- Wordmarks that Work
- Logo Design with Draplin
- Circular Logos
- Illustration with Draplin: Iterating with Shape, Style, and Color
- Design Like Draplin: 21 Tips for Speeding Up Your Design Workflow

MICA MFA Graphic Design Faculty Basics of Graphic Design (REALLY GOOD)
