today I have a quick but informative tutorial based around the illustrator
perspective grid you will see how to use it in conjunction with such things as a
local designing in Adobe Illustrator if you want to skip the intro you can move
to the time stamp in the corner
what is that people welcome back to you to Satori graphics the home of graphic
design content right here on YouTube the perspective grid can be annoying at
first and I feel some designers don't utilize this awesome tool enough in
Adobe Illustrator so let's take a look at the illustrator perspective grid tool
in Adobe Illustrator you can find the perspective grid tool right here in
tools panel as soon as you click here a grid will appear automatically I will
show you how to hide it later in the tutorial with the perspective tool still
selected you can drag the handles at the side to adjust the angle of the grid up
to the top apex here in the bottom you can raise up or lower down the base
level of the perspective on the grid
I advise that you spend a few minutes playing around with the different
handles on the grid seeing what adjustments you can make
you can click ctrl command Z to go back a step if you change the perspective
grid in a way you didn't I intend to
you can even separate the two sides here if you ever need to be doing that for
your graphical designs
if you accidentally open the grid oh you didn't want to see any more simply go up
to view perspective grid and then hide
now I'm going to show you a simple design using the perspective grid in
Illustrator here's the grid I'm going to be using for my simple logo design and
you'll want to choose a stroke in the color palette take the pencil and start
to draw in your design I'm going to draw a block change the shape to a feel and
then to another box in the middle
then select both squares by holding down shift and then I put up the Pathfinder
tool using the minus front option we're going to cut out the middle section
for the second section of my design I'm going to continue the same methods
before drawing in my design with the pen tool if you're designing a logo so it's
best to sketch out your ideas on paper first and then bring them to a digital
form the logo here is just a random design I'm making up showing you how to
use a perspective grid in Illustrator
when you're finished hide the grid and then edit your design as you see fits
