1

00:00:00.00 --> 00:00:02.04

- [Narrator] In this movie,

we're going to turn our attention



2

00:00:02.04 --> 00:00:04.08

away from the Extrude and Bevel command



3

00:00:04.08 --> 00:00:08.03

and begin a detailed look

at the 3D Revolve effect,



4

00:00:08.03 --> 00:00:11.06

which is quite powerful once

you come to terms with it.



5

00:00:11.06 --> 00:00:14.08

And so ultimately, we're going

to take these path outlines



6

00:00:14.08 --> 00:00:16.07

over here in the middle of the document.



7

00:00:16.07 --> 00:00:18.08

And we're going to combine

them with this logo



8

00:00:18.08 --> 00:00:22.07

in order to create this

vivid soda can effect.



9

00:00:22.07 --> 00:00:24.01

But first, I want you to understand



10

00:00:24.01 --> 00:00:26.06

how the 3D Revolve command works.



11

00:00:26.06 --> 00:00:29.02

And so in this movie,

I'm going to go ahead



12

00:00:29.02 --> 00:00:32.02

and turn off the logo and soda layers



13

00:00:32.02 --> 00:00:34.01

here inside the layers panel.



14

00:00:34.01 --> 00:00:36.04

And I'm going to turn on this top layer,



15

00:00:36.04 --> 00:00:38.05

which goes by the name ring.



16

00:00:38.05 --> 00:00:41.01

And we're going to take

this very plain circle



17

00:00:41.01 --> 00:00:45.06

and transform it into

this lustrous golden ring.



18

00:00:45.06 --> 00:00:47.02

Alright. So first thing you want to do



19

00:00:47.02 --> 00:00:50.01

if you're working along

with me is select the circle



20

00:00:50.01 --> 00:00:51.04

with the black arrow tool.



21

00:00:51.04 --> 00:00:54.08

And notice that it has

yellow stroke and no fill.



22

00:00:54.08 --> 00:00:56.09

Next you want to go up to the effect menu,



23

00:00:56.09 --> 00:01:00.03

choose 3D and then choose revolve



24

00:01:00.03 --> 00:01:04.03

in order to bring up the

3D Revolve dialogue box.



25

00:01:04.03 --> 00:01:05.07

At which point, I'll go ahead and turn on



26

00:01:05.07 --> 00:01:09.07

the preview check box so we

can see what's happening.



27

00:01:09.07 --> 00:01:13.07

Alright. So I'm going to drag

the edge of this box downward.



28

00:01:13.07 --> 00:01:15.05

Notice that it's a red edge.



29

00:01:15.05 --> 00:01:19.02

Just so that we can see

this circle revolving



30

00:01:19.02 --> 00:01:21.06

around its left side.



31

00:01:21.06 --> 00:01:23.08

So notice that we've

got this offset option.



32

00:01:23.08 --> 00:01:25.06

We'll check that out in just a moment.



33

00:01:25.06 --> 00:01:28.01

And then it says from left edge.



34

00:01:28.01 --> 00:01:30.03

If I were to switch it to right edge,



35

00:01:30.03 --> 00:01:33.00

notice in the document

window that we're now



36

00:01:33.00 --> 00:01:37.00

revolving the circle around

its right edge instead.



37

00:01:37.00 --> 00:01:39.05

Alright. I'm going to

switch it back to left edge



38

00:01:39.05 --> 00:01:41.02

so that you can see what happens



39

00:01:41.02 --> 00:01:43.04

if I increase the offset value.



40

00:01:43.04 --> 00:01:46.08

Instead of there being

no room around the circle



41

00:01:46.08 --> 00:01:50.02

as it gets rotated, the

offset value gives us



42

00:01:50.02 --> 00:01:52.08

a hole in the middle of the ring.



43

00:01:52.08 --> 00:01:54.05

And just for the sake of demonstration,



44

00:01:54.05 --> 00:01:58.01

I'm going to set this

offset value to 200 points,



45

00:01:58.01 --> 00:02:01.04

at which point you can drag the box around



46

00:02:01.04 --> 00:02:05.02

in order to rotate that ring in space.



47

00:02:05.02 --> 00:02:07.03

Now you also have the

option of determining



48

00:02:07.03 --> 00:02:09.09

how much revolution is going to occur.



49

00:02:09.09 --> 00:02:13.08

By default, the angle value

is set to 360 degrees,



50

00:02:13.08 --> 00:02:15.05

which is its maximum.



51

00:02:15.05 --> 00:02:17.07

But notice if you set it to zero degrees,



52

00:02:17.07 --> 00:02:19.01

and then press the tab key,



53

00:02:19.01 --> 00:02:21.04

that we lose the shape entirely.



54

00:02:21.04 --> 00:02:24.09

And that's because we're

doing no revolving whatsoever.



55

00:02:24.09 --> 00:02:27.00

But if I were to press Shift + up arrow



56

00:02:27.00 --> 00:02:30.04

in order to increase this angle

value, then you can see that



57

00:02:30.04 --> 00:02:33.02

we're getting more and more revolution.



58

00:02:33.02 --> 00:02:35.04

And ultimately, I'm turning that circle



59

00:02:35.04 --> 00:02:37.08

into a kind of noodle.



60

00:02:37.08 --> 00:02:39.08

And if I want to see into the noodle,



61

00:02:39.08 --> 00:02:42.08

I just have to drag this red edge upward.



62

00:02:42.08 --> 00:02:44.04

We also have a cap option,



63

00:02:44.04 --> 00:02:46.03

which is going to control whether or not



64

00:02:46.03 --> 00:02:48.04

we're seeing the stroke in this case.



65

00:02:48.04 --> 00:02:50.04

So if I turn it off, then we're seeing



66

00:02:50.04 --> 00:02:53.01

into the edges of the noodle.



67

00:02:53.01 --> 00:02:54.04

That's not what I'm looking for.



68

00:02:54.04 --> 00:02:57.05

So I'll just go ahead and

turn the cap option back on.



69

00:02:57.05 --> 00:03:01.04

And I'm going to increase

that angle value as well.



70

00:03:01.04 --> 00:03:03.08

So I just want you to see

that we're essentially



71

00:03:03.08 --> 00:03:07.03

turning this thing into a kind

of inner-tube at this point.



72

00:03:07.03 --> 00:03:10.09

And now, by the way, I am

once again dragging the cube.



73

00:03:10.09 --> 00:03:13.09

This time, by one of its green edges.



74

00:03:13.09 --> 00:03:16.01

Alright. So let's say we

want to make this thing



75

00:03:16.01 --> 00:03:17.07

look a little more golden.



76

00:03:17.07 --> 00:03:21.05

In that case, I'd go ahead

and drag this circle up here



77

00:03:21.05 --> 00:03:23.02

down in the lighting options.



78

00:03:23.02 --> 00:03:26.04

Of course, we want surface

to be set to plastic shading.



79

00:03:26.04 --> 00:03:28.09

I do want the light intensity

for this particular light



80

00:03:28.09 --> 00:03:30.07

to be 100%.



81

00:03:30.07 --> 00:03:33.09

I'm going to take the ambient

light value down to zero.



82

00:03:33.09 --> 00:03:36.05

I'll set the highlight intensity to 100.



83

00:03:36.05 --> 00:03:40.01

I'm looking for a highlight size of 50%.



84

00:03:40.01 --> 00:03:42.09

And just so that we get the

smoothest results possible,



85

00:03:42.09 --> 00:03:46.07

I'm going to crank this blend

steps value up to its maximum,



86

00:03:46.07 --> 00:03:49.07

which is 256.



87

00:03:49.07 --> 00:03:52.01

Now I don't really want the

shading color to be black.



88

00:03:52.01 --> 00:03:55.01

So I'll go ahead and click

on it and choose custom.



89

00:03:55.01 --> 00:03:57.00

And then I'll click on that color swatch



90

00:03:57.00 --> 00:03:59.07

in order to bring up the

color picker dialogue box.



91

00:03:59.07 --> 00:04:03.00

And I'll set the hue value to 270 degrees



92

00:04:03.00 --> 00:04:04.06

which, by the way, is violet,



93

00:04:04.06 --> 00:04:07.04

in order to more-or-less

match the background.



94

00:04:07.04 --> 00:04:09.04

I'll set the saturation to 50%



95

00:04:09.04 --> 00:04:12.01

and I'll take the brightness down to 10%.



96

00:04:12.01 --> 00:04:13.06

And something I want you to notice here



97

00:04:13.06 --> 00:04:17.02

is that Illustrator is

not previewing the color



98

00:04:17.02 --> 00:04:19.08

until I click okay.



99

00:04:19.08 --> 00:04:22.05

At which point, I will

see that color applied.



100

00:04:22.05 --> 00:04:24.03

Alright. Now I'm going to

add another light source



101

00:04:24.03 --> 00:04:26.04

by clicking on the little page icon.



102

00:04:26.04 --> 00:04:28.05

And I'll drag it up to

the top of this sphere.



103

00:04:28.05 --> 00:04:31.04

And I'll click on the

little page icon again.



104

00:04:31.04 --> 00:04:33.03

In order to create a third light source,



105

00:04:33.03 --> 00:04:35.07

I'll drag it down to about here.



106

00:04:35.07 --> 00:04:39.00

And then I'll click on this

icon in order to move the light



107

00:04:39.00 --> 00:04:41.08

to the back of the shape.



108

00:04:41.08 --> 00:04:44.03

Alright. Now let's adjust

the angle of the item here



109

00:04:44.03 --> 00:04:46.06

by changing this first value, the pitch,



110

00:04:46.06 --> 00:04:48.02

to negative 40 degrees.



111

00:04:48.02 --> 00:04:51.00

And then I'll change

the yaw to 20 degrees.



112

00:04:51.00 --> 00:04:54.02

And finally I'll set the

roll value, the Z axis,



113

00:04:54.02 --> 00:04:58.08

to negative 60 degrees to

produce this effect here.



114

00:04:58.08 --> 00:05:00.06

Now obviously if we want a ring,



115

00:05:00.06 --> 00:05:03.06

we want to revolve the

thing all the way around.



116

00:05:03.06 --> 00:05:07.06

So I'm going to set this

angle value to 360 degrees,



117

00:05:07.06 --> 00:05:11.00

and we'll end up with this effect here.



118

00:05:11.00 --> 00:05:12.06

And then finally, I'm going to increase



119

00:05:12.06 --> 00:05:14.00

the perspective value.



120

00:05:14.00 --> 00:05:16.02

Notice if I crank it up here,



121

00:05:16.02 --> 00:05:19.02

then the ring appears to bend toward us.



122

00:05:19.02 --> 00:05:21.09

Now once again, we end up

getting that wire frame effect.



123

00:05:21.09 --> 00:05:25.00

So I'm just going to set this

value to, lets say 70 degrees



124

00:05:25.00 --> 00:05:26.08

is going to work out nicely.



125

00:05:26.08 --> 00:05:30.04

And then, just to get

rid of the wire frame,



126

00:05:30.04 --> 00:05:34.05

I'll the angle value, let's

say down to 350 degrees



127

00:05:34.05 --> 00:05:35.05

for a moment.



128

00:05:35.05 --> 00:05:38.03

At which point, I get a little

bit of a break. Notice that.



129

00:05:38.03 --> 00:05:42.02

And then I'll set it

back up to 360 degrees



130

00:05:42.02 --> 00:05:45.01

in order to complete the effect.



131

00:05:45.01 --> 00:05:47.00

And then if I press the tab key,



132

00:05:47.00 --> 00:05:50.07

presumably Illustrator will go

ahead and preview the effect.



133

00:05:50.07 --> 00:05:52.06

Not really happening,

it doesn't look like.



134

00:05:52.06 --> 00:05:55.02

So you know what, I'm

just going to click okay



135

00:05:55.02 --> 00:05:57.06

and see if things right themself.



136

00:05:57.06 --> 00:05:59.07

And it looks like we

still have that break.



137

00:05:59.07 --> 00:06:02.00

I'm not sure why, so I'll

press Shift + up arrow



138

00:06:02.00 --> 00:06:03.08

and then Shift + down arrow to try to



139

00:06:03.08 --> 00:06:06.06

inspire the application

to get with the program.



140

00:06:06.06 --> 00:06:08.03

But, given that that's not working,



141

00:06:08.03 --> 00:06:10.06

I'll just go ahead and switch

to the appearance panel.



142

00:06:10.06 --> 00:06:12.08

And I will click on 3D Revolve



143

00:06:12.08 --> 00:06:15.00

in order to modify my settings.



144

00:06:15.00 --> 00:06:17.07

Problem is, the angle value didn't take.



145

00:06:17.07 --> 00:06:19.06

So I'll just go ahead and take that guy



146

00:06:19.06 --> 00:06:22.03

back up to 360 degrees.



147

00:06:22.03 --> 00:06:24.08

And then I'll turn on

the preview check box.



148

00:06:24.08 --> 00:06:28.08

And sure enough, we have

an entirely complete ring.



149

00:06:28.08 --> 00:06:30.02

Alright. Now click okay.



150

00:06:30.02 --> 00:06:33.09

Now notice, if you will,

that we're ending up with



151

00:06:33.09 --> 00:06:37.03

some kind of crackly edges down here.



152

00:06:37.03 --> 00:06:39.03

And those are actual real edges.



153

00:06:39.03 --> 00:06:41.01

That's the effect that we're going to get.



154

00:06:41.01 --> 00:06:43.07

And so if you're interested

in covering up those effects,



155

00:06:43.07 --> 00:06:45.03

I have a solution for you.



156

00:06:45.03 --> 00:06:48.00

Although depending on the

power of your machine,



157

00:06:48.00 --> 00:06:50.06

it may end up being a little painful.



158

00:06:50.06 --> 00:06:52.00

But here's what you do.



159

00:06:52.00 --> 00:06:54.08

Go up to the effect menu, choose stylize,



160

00:06:54.08 --> 00:06:57.01

and then choose inner glow.



161

00:06:57.01 --> 00:06:59.07

Do not turn on the preview

check box at this point.



162

00:06:59.07 --> 00:07:02.04

Instead, just go ahead and

click on a color swatch



163

00:07:02.04 --> 00:07:04.04

and dial in these values.



164

00:07:04.04 --> 00:07:06.07

I'm looking for a hue of 48 degrees,



165

00:07:06.07 --> 00:07:11.01

a saturation of 49%, and a

brightness value of 100%.



166

00:07:11.01 --> 00:07:13.01

At which point, I'll click okay.



167

00:07:13.01 --> 00:07:15.08

And then I'm looking for a

blend mode of color dodge.



168

00:07:15.08 --> 00:07:18.01

I set the opacity to 50%



169

00:07:18.01 --> 00:07:20.06

and the blur is set to eight points.



170

00:07:20.06 --> 00:07:23.03

You want to select the

edge option right here.



171

00:07:23.03 --> 00:07:24.08

And then if you like,



172

00:07:24.08 --> 00:07:27.08

go ahead and turn on

the preview check box.



173

00:07:27.08 --> 00:07:31.06

Now this happens to be an

extraordinarily powerful machine



174

00:07:31.06 --> 00:07:33.04

at this point in time.



175

00:07:33.04 --> 00:07:35.09

So the preview occurs pretty darn quickly.



176

00:07:35.09 --> 00:07:38.09

In your case, it may go

a little bit more slowly.



177

00:07:38.09 --> 00:07:41.02

Alright. But in the end, I'll click okay



178

00:07:41.02 --> 00:07:43.05

in order to accept that change.



179

00:07:43.05 --> 00:07:45.01
