Teacher Demo (must be in class to see this)
SCANNING your ARTWORK and QUICKLY TRANSFORMING IT DEMO
When you are done with the sketching part of your design process, you will need to scan it in and digitally enhance it. You can do this with a "quick" LIVE TRACE multiple times to find a look you are going for or you can use the pen tool to trace your image and then change the style of the stroke and fill multiple times. Note: You will have to EXPORT your project to get JPEG'S of your different versions. Please ask me to come over if this doesn't make sense :)
OR just get started in Illustrator or Photoshop if you do not want to draw it by hand
