In this “Three Minutes Max” video, Kyle Hamrick shows off some of Illustrator’s 3D tricks, including recently introduced options. He extrudes and twists a logo and even maps textures onto the objects with the built-in texture libraries. Lastly, he exports to a 3D format for use in other apps, such as After Effects.
Three Minutes Max comes from a fun—yet very competitive—session at our annual CreativePro Week conference. Speakers have three minutes to wow the audience with the tip and win a prize for a lucky conference attendee.
