In this Illustrator Tutorial we will be using Illustrator CS4 to draw this nice little 3D box which can easily be edited for use in tons of different ways! The beauty of this box is that it is all vector and very easy to use in a wide number of different editing programs! We will take a look at mapping artwork, using the 3D effect, effects in general, creating a reflection, and a bit of masking as well. A bunch of cool stuff to learn as we build a nice little box!

We will learn how to make some comic styled text in this video! You will learn how to break text down and add gradients, you will also learn how to create a fake 3D effect as well as some stroke options. All of these techniques will come together in the end as we create a comic book cover worthy logo.

Have you ever seen those looping, swooshing, swirling rainbow graphics used in all kinds of graphics ranging from logos, and sketches, to grungy and retro illustrations? Well we are going to create one of them in Illustrator and learn how to export it to a program such as Photoshop as a smart object to utilize it as a smart object so we can both retain vector scalability while giving us the option to use Illustrator to edit the graphic for us!

Use the Appearance panel to manage attributes such as effects and fills. Use the Graphics Styles panel to reuse combinations of attributes.
