How to Transform Effects While Drawing in Illustrator
In this Illustrator video, Mark Heaps shows how to set up effects ahead of time, so that transformations occur as you draw! Using the Layers and Appearance panels, he shares a clever way to see the effects as they’re created. This is a gem of a Three Minutes Max tip!
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.
