there is no skill shared , just walk through of his portfolio though it is very interesting but nothing to practice.

Aburridísimo, dos de tres unidades son él hablando de sus viajes y de como era el diseño en su época. Dice y se nota que es autodidacta porque no sabe explicar nada. Si eres diseñador y buscas un repaso de editorial, esto no te va a servir de nada.

I do not recommend. It might be interesting for a people passionate about history of the design, but it's not actually a course where you will learn a skill. Oscar talks about everything at one, is not prepared and the lessons were not well tought out. His tought process is all over the place the place and it's hard to understand him.
