It\u2019s our mission at Adobe to bring creatives around the world together, regardless of what life throws at us. That\u2019s why the theme of the latest virtual event in our \u201cMake It\u201d series of workshops, designed to show what\u2019s possible with Adobe\u2019s mobile creative apps, was all about collaboration. We invited 26 global digital artists from all walks of life to connect with each other online \u2014 their Make It mission was to work together to express how they found joy in unlikely places over the last year, using the iPad versions of Photoshop and Illustrator as well as Adobe Fresco, our focused drawing and painting app. The timing was perfect \u2014 today we\u2019re celebrating the release of our Design Mobile bundle available via the Apple App Store, which includes these apps and more to get creating, on mobile, right away.<\/p>\n

The virtual creative summit kicked off with some inspirational keynotes, which included designer, performer, and educator Meg Lewis, followed by a rundown of the latest still unreleased features we\u2019re adding to our creative mobile apps, crammed with tips and tricks to help the artists create beautiful designs. We also had wonderful presentations by our product managers, designers, and evangelists, like Paul Trani and Kyle Webster, who stole the show.<\/p>\n

The artists were then tasked with forming teams to create poster designs that illustrate magical moments of levity during this otherwise heavy and trying time. They could either work on their own individual projects and then merge them together, or collaborate on one poster. The goal was to complete each project on the iPad, using at least two of the three flagship applications in the bundle. Over the course of two days, the artists learned, experimented, and discovered what can be achieved when you collaborate and use multiple mobile apps together. The result is the amazing artwork that you see in this article.<\/p>\n

The \u2018Make It Together\u2019 workshop featured 26 artists from around the world and members of our own Adobe team.<\/p>\n

Taking mobile creativity to the next level<\/h3>\n

Adobe\u2019s mobile applications have come a long way over the last decade. Mobile is no longer just about mobility and being able to create anywhere. It\u2019s about usability, rethinking and augmenting existing workflows, and figuring out what you can do uniquely on mobile leveraging the incredible power of iPad Pro and Apple Pencil. Some of the features on mobile are stronger, more performant, and easier-to-use than on the desktop and all are meaningfully connected to each other and their desktop cousins.<\/p>\n

At the workshop, we showed how each of the apps works on their own and how capable they are on mobile. Many users are amazed to not encounter layer limits, even with very large files \u2014 one of many testaments to these app\u2019s architecture and the power of today\u2019s mobile devices. Photoshop on the iPad, for example, can select, mask and refine just as well as the desktop version (a lot of people don\u2019t believe it until they see it). Illustrator on the iPad, meanwhile, enables you to create beautiful patterns that you can\u2019t achieve the same way on the desktop.<\/p>\n

Then, there are live oil brushes in Fresco that you just don\u2019t get in any other app. In Fresco, today, you can replicate the look of natural media like oils, watercolors and charcoal \u2014 soon you\u2019ll be able to add motion as well! We showed a sneak peek at the workshop, and it blew people\u2019s minds.<\/p>\n

But what\u2019s really powerful is when all of these apps are used together. The interoperability and consistency across our apps and services unlock a creative freedom unique to these products. With interoperability, we\u2019re just at the beginning of this journey, but the Design Mobile bundle is a major inflection point.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s a lot of value in using all of these apps separately, but when you use them together, it really unlocks the magic.<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Many of the artists that took part in our virtual \u2018Make It Together\u2019 event went into it thinking they\u2019d be individual contributors on a team but then chose to collaborate. They worked together remotely via cloud documents and Creative Cloud Libraries. Specifically, they made use of the new Invite to Edit feature, which enables seamless collaboration with others when working together on Photoshop, Illustrator, and Fresco documents. It allowed them to send files directly to each other and add to their projects, which demonstrated just how easy it is to collaborate within our mobile applications. It\u2019s also testament to the power of connecting with other creatives who have different styles, experiences, and perspectives on life.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re co-creating our mobile apps with you. Want in?<\/h3>\n

Mobile is the future, and for some people the iPad is their only device. That\u2019s why we\u2019re always working on new ways to create and collaborate on mobile, and why we strive to be very transparent about our plans. When you launch the home screen in Fresco, Photoshop, or Illustrator, for example, we\u2019re going to show you what\u2019s coming next, so you can\u2019t miss it. And we don\u2019t just tell you, we also show you how to use new features, so you can validate and critique them.<\/p>\n

The focus is on the good stuff of course, but we also want to know what doesn\u2019t work, so we can make our products better. That\u2019s one of the reasons we run events like \u2018Make It Together\u2019. We know it\u2019s critical to pay very close attention to the feedback we get from our users and have conversations with them, which is why I\u2019m happy to share my email address (it\u2019s bhughes@adobe.com). Just get in touch with me and my team and tell us what you want to see so we can continue to create better, together.<\/p>\n

Special thanks to Pollyanna Macchiano & Bailey Sharrocks for another amazing Make It event.<\/p>\n

Photoshop on the iPad, Illustrator on the iPad, and Fresco on the iPad are part of the brand new Design Mobile Bundle, available from today on the Apple App Store, which also includes Adobe Spark Premium and Creative Cloud mobile app, alongside access to services that enrich these apps, like Adobe Fonts, Adobe Portfolio, Behance, Adobe Color, and Creative Cloud Libraries.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
