Illustrator Induction

Today I had an Illustrator induction on how to use the software to create mastheads and titles for my music magazine.

The outcome of exploring Illustrator

I used the type tool to type 'Origin'. To get the black and yellow outline I used the stroke tool and I could increase the stroke to a higher pt. I used the colours yellow, black and grey as this is my colour scheme for Origin magazine. I then was able to use the type tool to type 'contents' and right clicked the text to 'create outlines' this allowed me to move the text closer to each other.  I then used the brushes tool and started searching for interesting things and ended up using the border around Origin and then I was able to use the border as a paint brush tool to draw and write something. 

Illustrator is not as hard as I thought it would be, it is just like Photoshop and InDesign.
