Why did you choose to do this in Indesign not in PowerPoint - PowerPoint or excel maybe a good solutions

[@cryestudio]

Hello! InDesign is created specifically for graphic designers to create complex layouts and designs and prep them for digital or print. Designers don’t create ad designs in Powerpoint.

[@EmiwayKazama]

it was not that useful. over simplistic design.

[@Rio-by1eh]

The problem is anybody can describe what they are doing on the screen, that’s that is as far as this presentation goes, is DESCRIBING WHAT IS HAPPENING ON THE SCREEN… there is NO EDUCATIONAL VALUE HERE about Indesign …one can do the same thing talking over a PowerPoint layout …and it is misinformation

[@lardgoddess]

Everyone learns in different styles ...for some of us seeing visually someone completing a practical task and the workflow behind it can be extremely useful ...
