TYPOGRAPHY
We then opened the scan up in Adobe Illustrator so that we could draw over our own drawings. This was half of my scanned in drawing from the typography session we have.
Firstly we renamed the background layer to 'bg layer'. Then we created a second layer so that we don't damage the first background layer and so that when we tried other effects, we could hide the other layers.
Then we used the pen tool to outline our letters and because I had holes in my letters I needed to use an effect to cut out the hole in the centre of the letter.
We used a blog brush tool and traced inside the block letters. We could increase the width of the line however, as the thickness of the line grew bigger the less it looked like block letters which I didn't like.
