Text Stacking

We went in a different direction with this latest project. We did not use any of the previous tools we had used in Adobe Illustrator. Before we had been working with tools like the pen tool and shape tool, however, in this project we used the text and grouping tools. This was a very educational project. We learned about text stacking, figure ground reversal, and typographic ligatures.
Tools Used
  1. Text tool
  2. Outline tool
  3. Grouping tool            
Self-Reflection 

This project introduced us to a whole new and glorious side of Adobe Illustrator.  We finally strayed from the annoying pen tool and childish shape tool and advanced into the majestic world of manipulating text. I definitely like these types of projects a lot more.
Participation/Project
  • I would give myself a 10/10 because my final product looked great and I was a consistently hard worker throughout.
