Adobe Creative Cloud is a massive collection of professional desktop and mobile applications and web-based services. The software is updated continually throughout each year, receiving new features, performance improvements, and other modifications. Additional connective services like Libraries, file sync, and cloud documents tie everything together in a way that is just not possible through standalone applications. Whether you’re designing with industry-standard applications like Photoshop or After Effects or experimenting with new offerings like XD or Dimension, Adobe Creative Cloud provides everything you need to express yourself creatively across all media.

Your Adobe Creative Cloud subscription delivers a breathtaking collection of state-of-the-art creativity tools―for web, print, video, interactive, digital marketing, UX/UI design, and more. With so much power, where do you start? If you're familiar with one or two of Adobe's tools, how do you extend your knowledge to make the most of the entire Creative Cloud, choose the right tool for each job, and do amazing work? Start right here, with the only classroom-proven guide to the entire Adobe Creative Cloud suite: Adobe Creative Cloud Classroom in a Book.

Authored by leading designer and instructor Joseph Labrecque, this guide reflects his experience teaching hundreds of students at the University of Colorado Boulder College of Media, Communication & Information. Each chapter combines an overview of a Creative Cloud app with well-crafted hands-on practice. Labrecque introduces the software, explains essential concepts and design principles surrounding its use, guides you through basic tools and workflows, and then walks you through executing a project from beginning to end. You'll learn how each tool works in real life, and how to apply design concepts and theory in your own creative practice.
