  • Introduction (1:45)
  • Lesson 1: Revolve (4:07)
    Before we truly explore creating 3d objects, see how Illustrator CS4 allows you to take a 2d object and revolve it in 3d space.
  • Lesson 2: Extrude and Bevel (4:57)
    We will explore creating real 3d objects, first by using the extrude and bevel effect. This effect actually creates a dimensional object, that can be manipulated in a 3d environment.
  • Lesson 3: Rotate (3:01)
    3D rotation allows you to create more complex 3d objects.
  • Lesson 4: Creating Symbols and Mapping Art onto 3d Objects (5:56)
    Say you made a 3d bottle and want to put a label on it. In this lesson, we will explore creating symbols and how to map them onto your 3d object.
  • Lesson 5: Editing 3d Objects and Applying Other Effects (4:04)
    Once a 3d object has been made, you can continue to edit it and apply some of IllustratorÕs other effects to it.
