What do the various apps do?
InDesign
Adobe InDesign is a desktop publishing software application used throughout the publishing world.
Use it to create media such as posters, flyers, brochures, magazines, newspapers, presentations, books and banners. These can be for print or for screen use.
Photoshop
Adobe Photoshop is the powerful industry standard image editing package. It not only allows you to correct images but you can create amazing compositions too.
Photoshop is used for print, web and even video. It will ensure your images look their best.
Illustrator
Adobe Illustrator is the vector design package of choice when it comes to creating media such as logos, infographics and graphic artwork.
It can output artwork either print or screen ready or the files can be taken directly into Adobe InDesign.
Well structured and easy to follow.
Ally was very accommodating allowing us to cover not only InDesign, but also some simple elements of Photoshop that we wanted to learn.
The courses, led by Tim, are always well structured and easy to follow. Tim is also very accommodating repeating information that you may not have heard or understood.
I would not only highly recommend the 2-day InDesign course, but also the customised for those looking for more bespoke training.

I learnt more efficient ways of working in InDesign and picked up some new techniques
Tim’s training was excellent. I had a good level of knowledge using InDesign, however, I was completely self-taught so I wanted to brush up on my knowledge and learn some new skills. The Level 2 InDesign course did exactly this. I learnt more efficient ways of working in InDesign and picked up some new techniques that I’m excited to implement. I would definitely recommend Red Rocket Studio, and I plan to complete more training with them in the future.

They have helped me become a whizz and I’ve now been able to design our Company Brochure!
I would highly recommend this company for InDesign Training. I did my level 1 & 2 and it was very organised and well thought out. Tim was excellent and answered any queries the group had. I have struggled with InDesign for a long time but they have helped me become a whizz and I’ve now been able to design our Company Brochure.
They offer a very reasonable price unlike other companies and provide help after the sessions whenever you need it so what more could you want!

It was very hands on, perfectly timed and cannot rate the training highly enough.
Tim was absolutely wonderful – really impressed with the amount covered in the Indesign course. It was very hands on, perfectly timed and cannot rate the training highly enough. Gave real practical insights too into the print world which was exceedingly helpful for me. Before the course I really didn’t get on with InDesign but now I feel very differently about it. It is very evident that Tim has used this software for years – he was so knowledgeable.

A very enjoyable and rewarding experience.
After a 2-day intensive course with Tim I walked away with much greater confidence especially as we had focused on design / content work that was relevant to my business.
Red Rocket’s admin is great, and Tim is an excellent instructor who seems to possess limitless patience. Overall, it was a very enjoyable and rewarding experience.

I really felt at ease with the speed.
I was trained by Tim in InDesign on a one to one basis over 2 days in my office. As a complete novice, I really felt at ease with the speed at which Tim taught me. His teaching method is clear & concise and I enjoyed it very much. Tim knows his subject very well, and I would not hesitate to highly recommend both him, and Red Rocket Studio. I had a couple of queries beforehand, and Alyson answered them really quickly.

By the end my skill level had clearly improved dramatically …
It was a pleasure to be trained by Red Rocket – they worked around my work schedule to come to my home and provide a bespoke training program based on my needs and requirements. The trainer, Tim was both very patient and knowledgeable and by the end my skill level had clearly improved dramatically and was able to undertake projects that I previously would had to pass by.

It was one of the best courses of its type I have ever done … I wish I had done these courses years ago!
It was one of the best courses of its type I have ever done. The trainer – Tim – was superb; knowledgeable, clear and passionate about the subject matter. I booked on the course to help me with aspects of my job and I am delighted with the results, so much so that I am going to attend the level 2 course in a month or so.

I have been so impressed by the service from beginning to end. The team have been extremely accommodating of our needs and created a tailored course that was delivered perfectly. The training session was relaxed and flexible with the ability to pivot as needed.

He explained everything very well whilst catering for all abilities within the group.
Myself and five other colleagues completed a 2 day course on In-Design with Paul, who was an amazing trainer. Paul was very knowledgeable about the software and when teaching, explained everything very well whilst catering for all abilities within the group.
The course as a whole was well organised and enjoyable while learning new skills and tips/shortcuts to improve the way I work. I believe we all feel confident to complete all the basic tasks within InDesign that were covered in the 2 day course.

His teaching style was fantastic – ensuring that before we moved on, everything was clear.
Red Rocket Studio are amazing! I would recommend them to anyone. We wanted to get a base understanding of Photoshop and InDesign to help us amend and create simple graphics. Thanks to Tim my colleague and I feel so much more confident in Adobe. His teaching style was fantastic – ensuring that before we moved on, everything was clear. He was incredibly patient and nothing was too much trouble.

I now feel so much more comfortable creating assets for my company, and as a junior Graphic Designer.
A wonderful, educational experience! I thought I knew everything there was to know about Photoshop and… I was wrong! Over a course of three days I learned so many things about working with the Adobe Suite, with Tony as a wonderful and understanding teacher.
I now feel so much more comfortable creating assets for my company, and as a junior Graphic Designer – it means a lot!
Highly recommend! You will learn a lot and be cared for by Ally and the team at Red Rocket.

I now feel much more confident using InDesign.
I wasn’t sure what to expect from the course, but I am really glad that I chose it. Tim the instructor was really nice and very clear with explaining everything. He was very patient with all of my questions and asked me what stuff I’ll be using InDesign for so that he could tailor it to my needs. I now feel much more confident using InDesign.

There were a myriad of hints and tips that will help enormously.
Tim is an excellent tutor. He combines knowledge, experience and patience. I benefitted from a one day bespoke course on Adobe Photoshop. Besides the big building blocks there were a myriad of hints and tips that will help enormously. I would thoroughly recommend Red Rocket Studio.

Helpful problem-solving to overcome specific issues.
Highly recommended. They provided practical helpful problem-solving for someone (me) who did know Adobe InDesign basics but needed assistance to overcome specific issues and gain confidence. Tim and Alyson provide great service at reasonable cost with the minimum of jargon.

The 2-day Adobe InDesign Beginners’ Course was excellent.
The 2-day Adobe InDesign Beginners’ Course was excellent. Tim is a fantastic tutor. He is friendly, patient and very clear to follow. Having never really looked at InDesign until then, I now feel confident enough to create some very professional looking documents, so thank you very much Tim. The course is also very well organised-thanks Ally. I would recommend this course as brilliant option for any beginner.

The post-training help as part of the deal is another added bonus.
I completed the two-day Introduction to InDesign training and can highly recommend it. The pre- and post-training communication from Alyson has been very efficient, and our trainer, Tim, was excellent. His gentle, patient manner put me very much at ease and I felt free to ask any question, even about things he had already explained more than once. The post-training help as part of the deal is another added bonus. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Red Rocket in the future.
