In this video, I'll teach you how to vectorize images in Adobe Illustrator. Vectorizing is super useful to transform images that are made out of pixels, like JPEGs and PNGs into vector files, which can be scaled to infinity without losing quality!

I never knew you could click on the handlebar with the corner tool (can’t remember the correct name) to only square-off one of the angles! That’s a trick I’m going to have to remember. I use the opacity on my original image as well, except I make a new layer and lock the translucent image into the top layer and then do all of my drawing on the bottom layer underneath. This way, what I’m drawing isn’t completely covering the original. I do this so often I changed my keyboard shortcuts so that pressing 5 will make any object 50% opacity and shift+0 puts it back to 100% opacity.

I'm too lazy to use Layers. Guilty as charged 😂 but yes, if that's something you do quite often, that's a way better way to keep organized :)

Can't you just trace bitmap the existing image and use that as a vector? Why do you have to go through all the tracing with the pen tool if the image already exists?

@AndyTellsThings 7 ай бұрын

The image that is being traced is irrelevant. For the sake of this tutorial, it doesn't matter, could be anything. It's the knowledge on the software that is important, it's knowing how to use tools and identifying when you should use what. Also, tracing produces mediocre vectors. Extra, unnecessary anchor points, and the end result is just not refined enough in the vast majority of cases.

@Andy Tells Things - no proportion maintained for letter thickness while recreating... Spacing on rounded top of A is yet more than the both sides of A. Sides of A size is yet not maintained for a bar bellow N and sides of N. I bet.... Just stopped video till this part... Thank you...

@AndyTellsThings 10 ай бұрын

You miss the point of the video. This is not a font design tutorial. It's a tutorial for beginners to showcase tools and features of the software, and I won't overcomplicate my teaching by drawing attention to something that is irrelevant for a beginner - such as consistency in spacings and sizes. I want the viewer to know they can press M to use the Rectangle Tool and that they can round the top of it. They can figure out design principles and rules in the future on their own if they wish, or with an appropriate tutorial for that.

I think you could actually make a tutorial for beginners on this if you wanted. This was way to advance using short cuts and moving so quickly. No shorts cuts for beginners please. We need to become familiar with where to find things and what they are called (by going there).

@mamat792 9 ай бұрын

Clueless as to how that vectorized the image just drawn. I thought there was saving involved? Slow down my friend.

@peterconnolly202 Жыл бұрын

this is cool and stuff but your better off using vector magic literally a click of a button and this is done lol

@AndyTellsThings Жыл бұрын

Yes. You can also image trace inside Illustrator with literally a click of a button and it will vectorize whatever bitmap you want. You can select how many colors you want, you can set a threshold for contrast sensitivity and et cetera. But I guarantee you with 100% of certainty it will never ever be as clean and look as nicely done as if you do it manually. It'll always create unneccessary anchor points, you'll have way less flexibility in editing it afterwards and in general they can look not so great. It's not necessarily wrong vs. right, I use image tracing all the time, but that's just not the point of the video. And I strongly disagree with the whole "you're better off" thinking. But thanks for commenting, tho!

This was great to show the many ways to achieve the desired result. However - your thumbnail was very misleading. If you're going to show a detailed image for an example in your thumbnail I expect to see that example in your tutorial - not just recreating simple block letters.

@AndyTellsThings Жыл бұрын

Yeah, I guess you're right. I'll change that.
