High there in this tutorial we're going to create this jewel tone effect in Adobe Illustrator plus would
do a kind of a halftone option over here as well.
Transforming this image into these guys.
Now this is not an official jewel tone that you're going to create separations and send them off to
your commercial printer.
It's more like the effect of jewel tone.
All right let's go and learn how to do that now in Illustrator.
OK so first up open up jewel toned.
I don't need to use this file but if you want to it's in your exercise files Why.
Because get a pink background.
And I've got some sneaky takes over there.
You may not have these fonts so I've got two versions in outline version and one that has the fonts
that you can go and modify to your own font.
And one thing with this one is going to make sure documents on IGB some of the things we're going to
do requires it to be IGB uses and go to follow newsmakers IGB or over file document.
Just make sure it's in G.
B.
Let's bring in an image.
So Commanche if the full file place is one of they called two options here we're going to bring this
JP again.
It's called the cathedral of Holy Trinity.
It's an amazing church here in Ireland and in Waterford and it just looks amazing as the main main point
that I've used it.
And so I'm going to bring it in right and I'm going to drag it out.
I'm going to working now.
I could carry on with this.
My problem is that I want the sky to be and that you saw that first version in the intro.
I didn't have a Sky and so often I want to kind of just you want to trim all this stuff back to do it
illustrate it just doesn't do it.
It's Photoshop strops English jumped to Photoshop for a quake and to show you how to quickly remove
say the sky.
And so I've got it open here.
I'm going to use this tool here.
He's the magic tool the quick selection so if you haven't used him for a long time he's got amazing
over the years.
What's this going to click and drag and just kind of click and drag this guy in.
Amazingly got much this guy has a few little issues but nothing that's going to hurt my job OK.
And well you need to do is click on this option he says make lemme ask and this is the kind of wrong
thing selected so all I need to do is before I click that button to select invis I clicked on this guy
now I'm going to same as 7 was p SD and I'm going to add that no sky hyphen which I've already done
is going to close them down and save.
So you might just tidy up an image a little bit in Photoshop and because we're going to kind of destroy
this so much you don't have to be special about it.
So now we're going to go for a place and illustrator is pretty good at just bringing MP past days.
There's no reason to save out punji or anything.
I'm going to bring him in to make him the right size because it's Dedge right.
When you make Camma are perfect and haven't done the bottom rights and first thing I need to do is convert
him into like a vector shape.
Kind of gives us the kind of printing look so that Slichter going to go over here Essie's image trace
it's up there as well.
Kaysing and click on it and the option I want in this case.
You might play around with a few different ones.
I found it looks good just converting it to shades of grey because they don't get to see you at times
just two colors right.
So I'm going to use the color of the background and a color for the Churchill cathedral.
So I wanted to be black and white.
Then we'll get to recolor it once it's finished its little thing.
All right.
So when really they are right and we need to cool already.
I need to get the background you know the Becher disappeared again.
I.
So to get rid of it or the why are Cayley's doesn't have clouds in it is going to kick off from the
background while I click on the sky and just hit delete.
Don't do that before I do any of that.
I need to hit the expand button on the top here.
I can forget that.
Then with the Y Erica from the background color sky.
Hit delete all right as the sky's gone.
It's all kind of lovely vict.
If I go to wireframe mode pretty complex.
Next thing I want to do is recolor.
So we did recoloring in an earlier video.
Same principle works here.
Black error.
Click on the sky and I go to it it's the go to it it is going to go to re Kalat work.
I actually going to jump to this pre-sets.
This is the exact same thing except it's going to kind of save some time when I say one college place
opens it up.
Is this click OK.
And what we want to do is we want to change all of these gray colors to the new color which is going
to double click on this and pick a color what color we want to kind of purposely color.
Now what you might find is that it didn't quite do it the saturation down he finds easier.
OK grab this guy right it's up a little bit
down.
Misson about too much now.
Maybe for people.
All right so once you get your colors Let's click OK and now we need to do is kind of get rid of the
white you could do this sort of dual tone K using the white paper and these two colors but it kind of
looks nicer if I start playing with my blending modes now because it will last detail here.
Cade's really hard to actually see now.
The shortcut for getting rid of all those lines is so right come on h.
Ok back on later on but for the moment just turning it off it's still there but at least I can see what
I'm doing.
And he is going to kind of work my way through like Dawkins kind of cool good and direct with a background
you just work your way through it and figure out which wine kind of gives you the ific that you are
looking for.
I'm going to jump back to Daryn Kagan.
That kind of traditional Jotan look.
Last thing we will do is just bring in that text saying zoom out here is over here and get these two
guys.
I've laid this out already.
I hate the layout.
You can go and adjust it.
And the one thing I might do though is I need to be in front so I'm going to arrange and bring different.
Q One more thing will do you sort of the beginning that halftone look so grandma up or to hold down
the key on a PC option make.
OK.
And what I'll do is I'll slick this and on and affect and slide where you pics.
There is Keela halftone looks quite cool and you might have to undo come back to this quite a bit.
There's no preview.
OK.
It's going to give me the kind of effect what you might play around with it because of the car.
Old school newspaper were exaggerated it a bit.
But yeah it's kind of cool exercise.
Now that's exercise.
We've done together.
Now it's time for your exercise.
OK so there's homework for this one.
What I'd like you to do is I'd like you to find a monument in your town doesn't have to be a cathedral.
It could be anything.
I'd like to see it.
Case of find something online quick and easy.
Find something in your local town the kind of significant building could be anything can be a dog.
I'm happy with the dog.
OK but I'd like you to play around with both.
Different colors different fonts and play around with this kind of look.
And I'd like you to send me copies of it.
So use the Web site here ok to post your projects or you can send it to me.
But actually and send it to me send it to me on Twitter.
And Dan loves Adobe and Instagram.
Bring your own laptop.
So I'd love to see what you're doing.
Yeah I'd love to see a little bit about your town hall right.
That's going to be this for the tutorial.
See in the next one.
