Join Me in Las Vegas in March

February 2, 2016

I looked at my calendar yesterday and realized that in less than a month I’ll be in front of a group of CorelDRAW users in Las Vegas helping them improve their skills. Will you be one of the users in the audience?

If you have any questions at all, please visit the page for the International Awards & Personalization Expo as it has a wealth of information about my sessions and many others.

Below are the descriptions for the two sessions I will be teaching. There is a fee for each of the sessions that varies depending on your membership status. These sessions are relatively small and I highly encourage those who join me to ask questions.

Vectorizing Bitmaps in CorelDRAW

3/1/2016—8—11 am
CorelDRAW users are often asked to convert crummy bitmap logos into perfect vector versions. This seminar will show you ways to perform these conversions in CorelDRAW and Corel PowerTRACE. You’ll learn to identify fonts used, techniques for cleaning up a bad trace, how to use the Bezier tool to manually re-create artwork quickly, and ways to avoid conversion nightmares by getting better artwork from clients.
Maximum: 55 attendees

Graphics for the Web and Social Media

3/2/2016—1—4 pm
Create graphics using CorelDRAW and Corel PHOTO-PAINT to boost your business online. You’ll learn the three essential formats used and the best way to create them using CorelDRAW and Corel PHOTO-PAINT. Coburn will walk you through the specifics to create properly sized files for use online and how to optimize the images for popular social media sites such as Facebook, Twitter, Google+, and more. This seminar covers the gamut from online profile photos and cover photos to engaging images embedded in posts for each of the social media platforms. Be prepared to turbocharge your online marketing images!
