In this lab, I used Adobe Illustrator to create the following objects from Chapter 2's pages 31 and 32 of https://s2.jupiterfiles.com/p1/36460875/1/844430766/Adobe_CC_Design_Basics_v18.pdf. First I opened up Adobe Illustrator CC 2017. Next I clicked on the pen tool at the toolbar to the left. I dragged my mouse onto the top left hand corner of the Illustrator document. I clicked on the selected point of the Illustrator document. After that, I dragged the mouse pointer to the right at a 0 degree angle until I have the desired length. I pressed enter to confirm the line. I then gone above the drawn line and clicked at the desired point. I dragged my mouse pointer from the desired point to the bottom until the selected length was acquired which intersected with the previous line. Afterwards, I held on the rectangular object tool which showed a tab allowing me to click on the ellipse tool. Once selected, I dragged my mouse button onto the Illustrator document at the top left side of the two lines. I clicked, held the mouse button and shift after holding the mouse button, and dragged the mouse button from the top left side onto the lower left side of the two lines. I made a circle on covering the two lines. I used the arrow keys to make the circle cover the entire two lines. After that, I clicked on the top hand corner of the Illustrator bar and clicked on Object. I clicked on Arrange from the Object's tab. When the Arrange panel opened, I clicked on send to the back to have the ellipse on the back with the two lines covering the ellipse. The first part is done with the arrangement looking like a crosshair. Now for the second part! First I clicked on the Line tool. I dragged my mouse pointer onto the Illustrator document below the crosshair. I clicked, held my mouse button, and dragged my mouse from one point on the left to one point to the right. I released the mouse button. I clicked on the color panel and clicked on red to make the line red. I set the line to 8 pt next to the Stroke above the Illustrator document. I clicked on Stroke and made the line curved, dashed, 12 point dash, and 18 point dash. I clicked on the selection tool to confirm part 2. I clicked on the Rectangular tool to start part 3. I first clicked, held down the mouse button and shift, and dragged my mouse button from the upper left hand corner to the lower right hand corner. I clicked on the Direct Selection tool. I clicked on the point at the top hand corner of the square. I dragged the corner until the square looked like an arrow. Part 3 is finished! I did the same exact steps in part 3 to make another arrow. I clicked out of the square once it has been created to confirm it and in once the confirmation was completed. I clicked on the color panel and turned the square to green. Then I made another square using the Rectangular tool. I clicked on the Direct Selection tool. I clicked outside the square to confirm it. I clicked in the square at the lower left hand corner to dragged the point to make the square look like an arrow. I clicked the color panel to change the second arrow to red. I clicked on the Selection tool to dragged the arrows perpendicular to each other. I was now done with part 4. I clicked, held my mouse button, held down Options or Alt, and dragged the arrows to the right mirroring part 4. I clicked on the Line tool to draw a line connecting the two arrows. I undid all the line settings and had the line thickness wider. I finished part 5 after that. Now for part 6, I created a what was supposedly a dog using the Illustrator tools that I have learned so far or used. First I clicked on the Rectangular tool. I clicked and dragged the mouse from the top left to bottom right to create a square. I selected orange from the color panel to make the square orange. I did the same thing again to make a second orange square. I clicked on the Ellipse tool. I created one yellow circle as the face of the dog, two white circles as the dog's eyeballs, two black circles as the dog's pupils, one magenta circle as the dog's mouth, and one red circle as the dog's tongue. I clicked on the Rounded Rectangular tool. I clicked and dragged the mouse from the top left to the bottom right. I clicked on the Direct Selection tool and clicked outside of the rounded rectangle. I clicked on the points of the rounded rectangle and dragged them upwards to make a dog nose. I made the nose black also from the rounded rectangular tool. I clicked on the Text tool. I clicked and dragged my mouse from a top left hand corner to a lower right hand corner. I typed in "WOOF" to create dialogue for the dog. I saved the Illustrator document as I was done with Lab 12. Knowing how to use Adobe Illustrator is useful for web designers so that they can create images, art, and logos for their website.
