Thanks for all the feedback on the multi-cam shots! My first time trying this properly and may have got a bit carried away 😂

The rectangle behind text is very useful. Here's an issue: I wanted to make it a graphic style, but despite choosing “relative” in the “convert to shape” box, the “extra width” and “extra height” values are absolute. So despite the font size, it'll always size the box with the initial values. Is there a non-scripting way around this?

@@ForeverDansky Thanks for the reply. I'm a retired adman. The ideas part, we had departments doing mac work so I never needed to learn it. In c1990 we had 20 art directors sharing one mac. Once I retired I had time to learn, it's been fun. Now I'm learning to draw and paint (digitally) again, we had others to do that part. I'm also learning to edit film (also fun with DV) having spent a career making TV commercials.

Great video.For the puppet warp trick, why even bother in the first place? Just draw a line, expand the stroke, use handles to modify it and expand etc etc.

@ForeverDansky 9 ай бұрын

Expanding the stroke means you have the modify the path on both sides. Getting the curve looking right using the Puppet Warp trick takes care of both sides at the same time, so once you're happy and select Expand, the curve is already perfect. Depending on the design, it can also be easier to bend and sculpt a smooth curve, which may be especially helpful for beginners 👍

@voyowee 9 ай бұрын

@@ForeverDansky sorry, i meant draw a line, then expand it when you're happy with it. But it's still an interesting tip. Cheers.
