Working With Objects In Illustrator

[Catspit Productions]

This is only my third artwork video. This tutorial video is another preface to one we hope to upload very soon. In this third installment of Illustrator tips we take a look at a few different ways you can manipulate objects on one layer to be in front or in back of one another. You'll learn how to move objects and typesetting so you may create a design in one a layer canvas. This is a simple yet very important skill to learn for working with Illustrator vector artwork. In this video we also look at creating outlines for fonts so that we may send AI files from one computer to another without worrying about whether or not that other computer has the fonts you used. We also take a look at grouping and ungrouping objects so you can move them about the canvas as one object. You'll even see why the magnifying tool can be very helpful too. And finally you'll be ready for the next artwork video in which we will take a look at assembling very simple basic spot color art for printing tee shirts which includes film output tips.
