Video Transcript
Hi. My name is Alex Cecilio, and I'm going to show you how to distort in Illustrator. So, I'm going to start by drawing a star because it's going to be really easy to distort it and make is noticeable. And I'm just going to fill it real quick with just a gradient of some kind so we can really get the idea of how much it's being distorted. OK. So, you're going to select your shape. You're going to go to effect, and there's actually a couple of ways you can do this. I'm going to just show you, the Illustrator comes with distort and transform, and then it comes with warp. I would recommend distort and transform because it has some more interesting method of, free distort is basically when you can distort it anyway you wish, according to your you know, the angles of box, surrounding box. So, like that. My name is Alex, and this is how you distort in Illustrator. Thank you.
