This video shows German-born, California-based graphic designer Nicole Jacek using Adobe Comp CC to design a cover for Good Magazine. Jacek begins the project with her iPad on a flight, right on her tray table (with room to spare), and then, back at her desk, sends the work to her desktop, where it opens up in InDesign automatically (no hunting for the document through a file hierarchy). All of the objects and text that Comp CC prepared are live and native to InDesign (had she chosen to send to Illustrator or Photoshop instead they would be native to those apps), so she’s able to seamlessly move into production. This is not a case where the process has been simplified for dramatic effect; Comp CC really works like this.
