00:01.950 --> 00:05.580
High in this video we are going to look at more blending modes.

00:05.580 --> 00:10.170
We're going to look at gradients along strokes and where they can start overlapping and doing fun stuff.

00:10.170 --> 00:16.650
We also look at jamming a gradient inside type and and just so you know it so that you can kind of do

00:16.650 --> 00:16.890
this.

00:16.890 --> 00:21.990
You can see how they start interacting with each other you can see kind of cool unexpected colors and

00:21.990 --> 00:23.400
awesome stuff happening.

00:23.430 --> 00:25.910
All right so that's what we're going to do in this video.

00:26.000 --> 00:26.770
Let's jump in.

00:26.800 --> 00:27.260
All right.

00:27.270 --> 00:31.080
First up open up gradient color mixes from your exercise files.

00:31.080 --> 00:34.360
This is a mockup I made there's actually an x d.

00:34.470 --> 00:37.800
Kev you haven't used x D is great for prototyping Web sites or apps.

00:37.860 --> 00:39.900
I've got a course on that go check that out.

00:39.960 --> 00:44.580
But so I made this but I want to add a kind of a flurry of color like you saw on the side here and we're

00:44.580 --> 00:49.190
going to use blending modes something like XTi doesn't have this why you'll end up swapping between

00:49.190 --> 00:53.540
XTi to do that kind of core stuff like buttons and navigation stuff.

00:53.550 --> 00:58.560
And then out to illustrate it do some slightly more advanced color things like color blending more color

00:58.560 --> 00:58.990
blending.

00:59.010 --> 00:59.650
Yes.

00:59.840 --> 01:06.540
OK and so I'm going to use the coach told to kind of make that first spike click once click again and

01:06.540 --> 01:08.480
then kind of make a shape.

01:08.590 --> 01:09.970
OK.

01:10.410 --> 01:16.150
Now what I would like to do is and by default it will probably have a black line you might have a fill.

01:16.230 --> 01:17.680
Get rid of the film be white.

01:17.790 --> 01:18.820
OK and no stroke.

01:19.200 --> 01:22.260
And remember in an earlier to Troy you might not have done it but.

01:22.530 --> 01:26.690
So what we can do is first of all the with two kinds this guy here.

01:26.920 --> 01:33.930
I grab this and kind of make it and it gives me my nice even kind of pokey pointy thing and next thing

01:33.930 --> 01:41.040
I want to add stroke gradient cane is kind of new for a new version of Illustrator under strokes.

01:41.040 --> 01:45.960
If you using this particular file I've got all these great things already loaded in here for you if

01:45.960 --> 01:51.270
you don't he can use the gradient to kids and the window gradients.

01:51.270 --> 01:54.040
There it is there and make your own box.

01:54.090 --> 01:57.180
I'm going to click on one of these.

01:57.180 --> 01:59.520
Decide which one I want to use.

01:59.580 --> 02:00.420
No right or wrong.

02:00.570 --> 02:02.030
OK you might use gradients.

02:02.040 --> 02:07.760
Now the one thing with gradients though is if I open up grading options or go to a window gradient OK

02:07.800 --> 02:11.170
the player to a stroke you can either go left or right because that's what it's doing.

02:11.190 --> 02:15.430
Or the second one and this is what I want I want to kind of like follow the line.

02:15.450 --> 02:16.870
This one he goes left to right.

02:16.870 --> 02:17.640
Following the line.

02:17.640 --> 02:19.480
This one was strict down the following line.

02:19.530 --> 02:24.290
When he just goes like left or right regardless of where the story goes.

02:24.750 --> 02:25.870
Hopefully that makes sense.

02:25.980 --> 02:26.760
You can flip it.

02:26.830 --> 02:30.500
There's an option to flip K deciding on how you want to do it.

02:30.570 --> 02:35.580
Now all I'm going to do now for a second is let's speed this up because all I'm going to do is kind

02:35.580 --> 02:37.590
of rotate them and spin them round.

02:37.590 --> 02:39.230
So let's go speedy version

02:58.630 --> 02:59.470
OK we're back.

02:59.470 --> 03:02.650
And if you had to watch that in real time it took me for ever.

03:02.650 --> 03:04.260
I don't know why I'm just trying to.

03:04.490 --> 03:06.360
No no not flowing right.

03:06.550 --> 03:07.600
OK but you get the idea right.

03:07.600 --> 03:09.320
We get some kind of kids with gradients.

03:09.380 --> 03:15.370
I a select all of them at the top here and basically all we do is we go to the plaining mode OK which

03:15.370 --> 03:21.790
is an opacity and go to normal and just kind of play around with the ones that we like instantly duck

03:21.790 --> 03:26.510
and looks kind of cool and go wherever the interaction with this navigation will fix that.

03:26.510 --> 03:30.760
But I'm looking for these kind of like joins were things that are overlapping and doing cool stuff.

03:30.770 --> 03:33.730
Now it'll depend on the colors that you're using.

03:33.730 --> 03:39.400
OK so have a work your way through to see watch you know some cool interactions here with that shortcut

03:39.400 --> 03:46.480
command h k command H just kind of hides all the lines because it's quite hard to kind of see how they

03:46.480 --> 03:50.550
interact with those lines they just hides all the same bits.

03:50.650 --> 03:54.780
Turn it back on Multiply Culbert Kelvins quite nice.

03:54.780 --> 03:55.500
OK.

03:55.710 --> 03:57.220
We're not sure with that one.

03:57.390 --> 03:57.920
OK.

03:58.030 --> 04:00.070
Now I'm just missing about and I added some cropping.

04:00.070 --> 04:02.640
You can skip onto the next video if you like.

04:02.740 --> 04:07.420
I'm going to do some just tightening up and I'm finished once of clicked every single one of these if

04:07.420 --> 04:11.030
you know a shortcut from going through these I know and Photoshop been here.

04:11.050 --> 04:13.390
I can work it out in Illustrator.

04:13.420 --> 04:15.540
I have to click on every single one

04:18.290 --> 04:26.630
all rights Yodok and Co and I come to things I want to do is I just want to kind of crop it in and will

04:26.740 --> 04:28.160
let you into the text as well.

04:28.160 --> 04:29.070
So do hang around.

04:29.270 --> 04:31.600
OK you have disappeared already.

04:31.640 --> 04:35.320
No sorry about that as I'm going to grab the rectangle toe.

04:35.350 --> 04:39.230
I'm going to draw a rectangle that's the whole size of the thing.

04:39.360 --> 04:41.060
And basically his job.

04:41.200 --> 04:44.700
Going to hold shift grab these guys as well.

04:44.710 --> 04:50.370
Look all of them combined to turn those back on command 7 to turn it into a clipping mask.

04:50.420 --> 04:54.140
Now going to click on it and send it back.

04:54.340 --> 04:54.740
OK.

04:54.760 --> 04:55.860
On the navigation.

04:56.000 --> 05:00.710
What I'll do for the navigation do I want to be on the navigation.

05:00.710 --> 05:04.760
Do you want a behind the buttons but maybe not the actual nav bar.

05:04.760 --> 05:07.830
What would do for the nav bar is we'll pick a greeting for you buddy.

05:07.890 --> 05:13.290
C'mon you're going to be one too much.

05:13.840 --> 05:14.270
OK.

05:14.270 --> 05:15.650
And same for down here.

05:15.680 --> 05:21.560
I go over to and what I might do is stick them this guy drop a tool click on him and into my gradients

05:21.650 --> 05:26.810
with hand-selected fill at the front for most of us he's kind of bounced out.

05:26.810 --> 05:29.930
Now what you might want to do is a gradients to text while we're here.

05:30.040 --> 05:33.810
Of outlined this text works just as good for regular types.

05:33.980 --> 05:38.240
But I've outlined it because you all have this font and I'm quite precious about this font.

05:38.510 --> 05:45.090
And so what I'd like to do is it's Museo and or reporter who can help.

05:45.180 --> 05:49.970
Anyway we're going to add a gradient to it but if you're a gradient to either text or like this one

05:49.970 --> 05:55.130
kind of outlines of text look what happens if I get a feel buddy and I want you to be that kind of same

05:55.130 --> 05:59.150
gradient it does it individually OK per thing.

05:59.340 --> 06:04.090
OK an easy way to get round that is just to go to object and command 8.

06:04.190 --> 06:07.880
But if you're going to object as a combat path there it is there.

06:08.120 --> 06:14.900
So you make an object combat path make nothing really changes except now when I say give you a gradient

06:14.990 --> 06:16.480
it makes life easier.

06:16.600 --> 06:22.190
And you the color coded You can say it kind of goes across all the text rather than kind of starting

06:22.190 --> 06:23.540
and stopping all the way through.

06:23.570 --> 06:26.500
It might be hard to see because it's quite thin blue at the side.

06:26.610 --> 06:27.780
Yeah right.

06:28.610 --> 06:30.350
All right so that's going to be it for this video.

06:30.350 --> 06:35.270
More color blending I guess is want to show you lots of kind of things that happened just with blending

06:35.270 --> 06:35.790
modes.

06:35.840 --> 06:37.230
So many cool things.

06:37.250 --> 06:38.980
All right I'll see you in the next video.
