1-How To Use The Basic Tools in Adobe Illustrator

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=UqjZR_v37K8 

After watching this video I think the easiest tool to use will be the zoom feature and the hand feature. I think these are both very convenient ways to go about what your making. I like how where ever you point you mouse, is where your art moves, it seems a lot easier then how we had it before. However, I think the hardest tool to use for me would be the process of duplicating the papers. In the video they explain how you need to be holding down all 3 buttons at the same time to duplicate your water. I think after some time I’ll be able to get this down but it seems like a tricky process.

In this video I found it very interesting how you can crop the paper on the computer. I like this because if you want a smaller price for your art board you can make the page smaller or bigger if your making a bigger project. Also, something that stood out to me in this video that seemed difficult was the window options on the top of the screen. It seems like their are so many different options and ways to do everything so I think that may get overwhelming or hard for me.

In this video I found out how to use the “type tool”. I learned that you can do many different things with the type tool including creating “area types”. All you had to do is drag a text box. I think this tool will be easy and simple to use. However, the control panel seems like it could be hard to navigate around. Although it’s nice that their are so many options i’m excited to learn how to use all of them.

Business Cards

For my business cards I wanted to make it so it really stood out. I did this by adding a bunch of different colors and adding them together. I used bright colors and decided to make a bunch of shapes to make it look very abstract. I love how it turned out with my logo. I specially love my last business card because the shape theme went with the shape of my logo. For my first business card I decided to make the color yellow the main theme and that's what gave me the idea to do a big bright yell sun. I love this idea because it looks really happy, like my design shows. Finally I really like how all 3 of them are really different from each other because I wanted to make each on its own message and theme so I am proud with how it turned out.

Autoscopy

For my autos-copy I decided to take it into a different route. I taught my self how to make this glitch effect and I love it so much. It was so cool to do and I really like how it turned out with all the different colors. To start this I put my photo into black and white, then I turned of one of the RGB's on a different layer, each separately. Doing this brings out different colors that were in my picture originally, before I put it in black and white. After I finished that part I thought it needed something more. I decided to look up different tutorials and I found this neon light one. I drew a triangle and switch up all different kinds of settings to make It look like it was glowing around me. Then, I decided to add a bright purple butterfly in and make it look like it was through the window glass. Finally I added my logo in the upper left corner and lower left corner in the same neon color I used for the triangle. I am so happy with this product and im excited to be able to do i

BW to color

This is the original image of me and my friend at the beach. I decided to make the ocean a pretty pink color to really make it stand out. Part of this was difficult like the parts of the ocean that appears in-between our arms. To complete this successfully I used the paint brush tool to touch it up. I also use the hue tool to make the color blend in more so it wasn't so bright. For this one I wanted to make it look like there was a sunset in the sky and I loved how it turned out. I really like this one because its very simple and looks very real. I also added my logo in the top left.                                                                                                                                                  Back and white version   For this image I decide to make a different look by making both our hair purple and my friends legs purple. I was inspired to do this from the picture I found online I think it brings a funny look to it. I made the whole background gre
