Project 10: Skateboard

Project 10: Skateboard

For project 10 we have to create a clipping mask so we will be using this shape here and we have to just move it over the illustration and we just have to make sure it is including the sun and if I press command or control Y I can see it in the outline view and I can align it with the arrow keys on the keyboard maybe have it somewhere around there so it's not perfectly in the center I think it's going to look a little bit more interesting. I will press command or ctrl y to go back to normal preview mode and then having this shape and the illustration in the background both selected we can press command or ctrl 7 to create the clipping mask and now that we have our clipping group ready we can add the drop shadow effect from the effect menu we can go down to stylize, drop shadow and it should be using these settings that I used before. I'm just going to add 15 pixels blur, the color you can use anything you can even use black if you want. I like to always have a little bit of color on…
