This 10 minute video would've been much better if my teacher showed me this instead of her pretending like she knew pen tool. Another great video once again man! Keep it up, tutorials are looking better! Should show how you bring your handlettering to vectorized life! One of the most popular suggestions. Thanks bro
Bruh, you just saved my day. Your video was straight forward and to the point and exactly what I needed. I haven't used the pen tool in so long, I completely forgot how to make curves. Thanks a million!
Thought I had the Pen Tool figured out for the most part. Clearly I wasn't using it as efficiently as I could have been. Well done, mate. Brilliant video.
THANK YOU sooo much! This really helped a lot! I've been struggling with these little annoying things and you really helped me out. Great video! One of the best I've come across!
This has been an extremely helpful video thank you for putting it up I was having a lot of trouble in class with it and after watching this a few times I think I will have an easier time with it.
Well, actually you might use holding Control(windows) or Command (mac) to get the handle straight with the opposite handle. However, it will also change the direction of the opposite handle. So, just be careful when doing this. Just in case you want straight handles on an anchor (6:36 to 7:40) Have a good day :)
Very nice tutorial, easy to follow. I'd just lower the music volume a bit. Most tutorials always assume that you know how to use the pen tool, so now I can finally follow on more advanced tutorials!! THANKS A LOT!!
Hi, Great video and its very helpful. One question, I noticed that when you move your pen tool you have the line that trails with it. Is that has to do with the settings?
Hi bro. Want to ask something. When you move your pen after a point you have a line just like a 'preview' line. Is there anything to do with the settings? Thank you
+zamree BM This has drove me crazy coming from photoshop to illustrator where there is this ridiculous preview line following the mouse where you go. Go to setting in the pen tool (Ctrl +k, then selection, Select or clear the Enable Rubber Band for Pen Tool checkbox. Hope this help anyone else.
+timothyzc is the setting available for cs6 version? im using cs6 before until i download the cc2015 recently after seeing some comments says this features only available in cc2014 and above. anyway thank you
You could record a program that shows what keys you press? Not knowing English would be much easier for me to understand what you're doing. great tutorial. ;))
i literally feel like im never gonna get this i drew the most complex thing and watched like 50videos i watched yours and finally i was able to trace my picture
Hi. I press "p" to start using the "pen" on a box using "M". When i go to the left upper corner of the box, the pen tool is changing in (-) and appears a pink text "anchor" what is this? PLease help me. I need to start using the pen (with "*") startign from the corner... Heeeelp :)
