WEBVTT 00:03.660 --> 00:10.110 High there and this video we're going to take this kind of hand-drawn done with a pain so in real life 00:10.110 --> 00:17.040 drawing and go and do this where we fill up with color easily making it all kind of victory and nice. 00:17.040 --> 00:21.690 All right let's go and do it now in this tutorial case it is going to be three different types is going 00:21.690 --> 00:26.630 to be a hand-drawn one where if I don't then you can see like it's just kind of a pencil drawing and 00:26.640 --> 00:29.670 and these guys here we drew earlier in the class right. 00:29.670 --> 00:32.190 And all of the pros and cons we can with these. 00:32.400 --> 00:36.220 So for this guy here we need to first of all vectorize him. 00:36.330 --> 00:37.850 Basically it's called Live trace. 00:37.880 --> 00:42.290 OK so image trace if you select on him and over here there's one image trace. 00:42.300 --> 00:46.710 If you're using a earlier version of illustrator of the top their image trace it doesn't matter a click 00:46.710 --> 00:47.280 on it. 00:47.280 --> 00:53.400 And best results try different ones but normally it's just black and white logo will work. 00:53.430 --> 00:56.920 And the thing about it if I zoom in now it's actually vector shapes that I can fill. 00:56.970 --> 00:59.350 It's not quite ready because you need to expand. 00:59.370 --> 01:00.810 Otherwise it would work. 01:00.820 --> 01:02.220 K now it's lots of pieces. 01:02.220 --> 01:06.820 If I go to outline view command y control line and PCTs actually Victor. 01:06.870 --> 01:08.770 Now I need to color it. 01:08.790 --> 01:13.620 We're going to use our super resourceful shape a little easier for lots of things. 01:13.710 --> 01:15.600 So with it open let's do a couple of things. 01:15.630 --> 01:17.770 Open up our window and swatches. 01:17.880 --> 01:22.740 Now you might what I've done for us and this is where it is IVD cleaned up Milborough never the thing 01:22.740 --> 01:26.540 we learnt in advance to color tips and tricks I've cleaned up our switches panel. 01:26.590 --> 01:28.170 We've got the basics in here. 01:28.170 --> 01:31.500 You might get start with stop mixing colors that you want to color with. 01:31.530 --> 01:33.380 You can do them on the fly. 01:33.510 --> 01:38.230 And another thing you need to double check is if you double click this tool is that you want to make 01:38.230 --> 01:40.550 sure the fiction is on small for the moment. 01:40.560 --> 01:45.240 We'll look at that in a bit more detail in a second and make sure this I turn this off earlier in the 01:45.240 --> 01:45.870 course. 01:45.870 --> 01:50.910 Basically it's the color that appears just above your cursor and I'm not a big fan of it. 01:51.000 --> 01:54.270 So we need to do is click on it and color it's going to pick a starting color. 01:54.390 --> 01:54.960 OK. 01:55.020 --> 02:01.470 And when I click on it once and it's filled with that kind of off I should pick a slightly more specific 02:01.470 --> 02:03.300 color that you can actually see. 02:03.420 --> 02:05.130 So I've clicked on that and it just fills it up. 02:05.350 --> 02:10.410 And if you're running into problems with the hand-drawn type double click this and play around with 02:10.410 --> 02:12.310 the get detection. 02:12.390 --> 02:12.840 OK. 02:12.930 --> 02:17.340 Because you can see in here there is gaps that I've got there any gaps in this one there's a gap right 02:17.340 --> 02:19.430 there at the top right. 02:19.470 --> 02:23.190 And because I've got get protection on it's going is going to fill it for you. 02:23.190 --> 02:24.260 Don't worry about it. 02:24.570 --> 02:25.460 Thank you. 02:25.470 --> 02:31.230 Couple of things I want to do to speed this up is one is the short cut that you weren't short is that 02:31.230 --> 02:38.400 useful back in an earlier video member command on a Mac or control on a PC and it gets rid of all of 02:38.400 --> 02:44.280 that and good points everywhere you know which is just to your police and other cool little shortcut 02:44.310 --> 02:45.630 when you're coloring is key. 02:45.630 --> 02:52.020 See just above my cursor there there is actually three little dots the three little squares the middle 02:52.020 --> 02:53.230 one slightly bigger. 02:53.430 --> 02:57.210 If I go over here close to this panel he can zoom right in back. 02:57.210 --> 02:59.080 Can you see over here my curses. 02:59.130 --> 03:04.950 It's telling me that's the one I have selected but what I want to hit my left to right are you see I 03:04.950 --> 03:09.870 can kind of toggle through the available switches so it kind of makes it nice to kind of have one hand 03:09.870 --> 03:10.570 on your keyboard. 03:10.620 --> 03:16.240 Actually I want this to be this color and then I'll go or duck a color in here for this. 03:16.260 --> 03:20.660 I'm just kind of using my left and right killed the pieces. 03:20.660 --> 03:26.060 If you find it very hard to click zooming in I find that the kind of closer you are zoomed to the easier 03:26.060 --> 03:28.540 it is to get into some of these gaps so I'm using left and right. 03:28.550 --> 03:32.110 You can see a quick and easy it is to start coloring this thing on white. 03:32.150 --> 03:35.130 I want this color. 03:35.130 --> 03:38.710 He doesn't look like much of a color. 03:39.050 --> 03:43.010 And you can actually you don't have to use the swatches you can just use pre-mix color you know make 03:43.010 --> 03:43.570 your own. 03:43.580 --> 03:45.870 So double take this pick a swatch. 03:45.870 --> 03:47.440 I want to a color. 03:48.590 --> 03:50.490 My Raheel flower thing. 03:50.790 --> 03:51.380 OK. 03:51.560 --> 03:55.230 And you can click on him you can see I just picked a random color 04:00.170 --> 04:05.290 really hard to get right in there maybe go. 04:05.360 --> 04:06.070 Come on. 04:06.130 --> 04:07.540 Get to go. 04:07.840 --> 04:09.250 All right so there is how to color. 04:09.250 --> 04:13.510 There's a couple of things you know with this white border on the outside K which you may or may not 04:13.510 --> 04:16.890 want and I'm going to hold down the key on my PC. 04:16.930 --> 04:19.060 Well the option can I can just delete them. 04:19.460 --> 04:25.600 So hopefully now we're going to go to transparency and that's a shortcut we haven't learnt before command 04:25.650 --> 04:32.920 shift D or control shift D goes into that kind of more Photoshop style kind of sense of opacity or transparency. 04:32.950 --> 04:36.860 It allows you to know whether there's white in the background or it's blank. 04:37.140 --> 04:37.800 OK. 04:37.870 --> 04:41.960 And let's look at some of these other guys here. 04:42.080 --> 04:42.400 OK. 04:42.400 --> 04:43.800 Because it's going to run a few more problems. 04:43.810 --> 04:45.730 I left to get there on purpose. 04:45.730 --> 04:47.590 I've got some overlapping bits. 04:47.620 --> 04:52.990 So we want to tidy this up so we've kind of moved on from live during to kind of just coloring anything. 04:53.050 --> 04:55.630 And remember these aren't complete shapes or these big holes. 04:55.630 --> 04:57.570 This guy just kind of overlaps this. 04:57.740 --> 04:59.190 So it's like the mole. 04:59.410 --> 05:06.370 OK let's Gerbe shift him for OWL shaped a little and get to diction is going to be a little bit more 05:06.370 --> 05:07.590 important in this case. 05:07.600 --> 05:15.370 Cagas you'll find things like if I double click it and make the to large you see it's is depicted a 05:15.370 --> 05:21.550 really large gap over here in the here and it's decided that hey I can fill it in and if you are watching 05:21.550 --> 05:25.790 this whole tutorial series that drove me mad a little bit a little while ago. 05:25.980 --> 05:28.080 And anyway so. 05:28.150 --> 05:28.390 Yeah. 05:28.420 --> 05:33.460 You might have to play around with Gap detection to work it out for your particular drawing case and 05:33.460 --> 05:34.300 a click OK. 05:35.920 --> 05:41.980 So let's say I want to do this again I want to color the here and then give the green color and then 05:42.020 --> 05:47.320 a color face this color and the eyes are going to be this color. 05:47.780 --> 05:48.120 OK. 05:48.140 --> 05:49.530 But I've got all these extra bits. 05:49.610 --> 05:55.970 Ok overlap so all I can do is I can hold down the key on PC option and I can just click on them. 05:56.090 --> 05:57.880 These bits just get trimmed up. 05:57.880 --> 05:58.930 I love this mush. 05:58.930 --> 05:59.810 So cool huh. 06:00.100 --> 06:03.940 Can you decide on how kind of detail you want to get rid of these but I'm just holding out. 06:03.970 --> 06:05.560 You can drag across things. 06:05.680 --> 06:08.640 OK so there's a kind of a pile of junk here. 06:08.660 --> 06:12.070 We're going to hold an old trek across the mall to get rid of all that. 06:12.250 --> 06:14.020 You know what I wanted. 06:14.380 --> 06:17.580 Kids getting rid of everything hold and altering them to get with these guys. 06:17.590 --> 06:19.330 I said you could drink across them. 06:19.340 --> 06:21.080 It's not working very well. 06:21.130 --> 06:25.630 All right so I'm going to work my way through and keep coloring that is going to be no difference for 06:25.630 --> 06:26.230 this guy. 06:26.230 --> 06:30.880 What I'd like you to do now is you go through and do it but do some maybe some nicer colors. 06:30.880 --> 06:31.750 I picked these colors. 06:31.750 --> 06:33.220 They seem like they're going to be good. 06:33.220 --> 06:37.060 I even did a demo before I recorded this one and it looked better. 06:37.200 --> 06:40.460 And anyway so the window color themes. 06:40.470 --> 06:41.980 Can you find some nicer color themes. 06:41.980 --> 06:47.920 I want you to fill it with Gap detection delete the lines maybe get rid of the stroke add a cool brush 06:47.920 --> 06:49.190 stroke. 06:49.240 --> 06:50.990 Yeah I'd like to see what you've done. 06:51.010 --> 06:54.600 So either stick it here as the class project. 06:54.640 --> 06:55.120 OK. 06:55.140 --> 07:00.420 Oh there'll be a proper space for it here on the web site but also I'd love to see just take a screenshot 07:00.430 --> 07:05.140 and send it to me on Instagram or in on Twitter. 07:05.140 --> 07:05.590 All right. 07:05.620 --> 07:07.610 I will see you in the next video.
