Summaries from Lydia



Lydia Summary
Two things about colors: CMYK = Cyan, magenta, yellow, and key (black). These colors are made for print. RGB = Red, green, and blue. These colors are made for web and screen graphics Fills and Strokes video was about exactly that: Fills and strokes. Fill is pretty much everything within an enclosed path while stroke is just the color of the path line. Next was paths which is the skeleton of any shape/design and anchors which are that skeleton's joints that connect everything together. In that part of the video assignment I found it cool that while you are creating a shape such as a star, if you hit the up arrow you can add more points to the star. Very awesome! Then the man moved on to joining and averaging paths which are pretty much the same thing  (merging two anchor points together to just make one joining path. Last but not least was the scissors and knife tool. That was just review since the professor went over it in class. scissors is more percise while the knife tool is more free flowing for things like curves.
