Introduction to Illustrator

Shape tool useful

Effects e.g. blur, 3D

Able to upload JPEGs and convert it to vector using live trace = stylised look

Text tool - Use selection tool to move, re-size, rotate etc.

Window - Type - Character - Experiment! Manipulate e.g. tracking spacing

Right click text - creates outlines. This creates anchor points which allows you to isolate and edit smaller parts of text.

Pen tools allows you to add and alter anchor points

To export: file - export - PNG File
