Elmo Graphic

For this activity, we created a drawing of Elmo. The graphic uses shapes like ellipses and rounded rectangles. We learned about fills and strokes. We learned about the pathfinder tool. We also learned about arranging items in a stacking order. We also organized our file using layers, exported a .PNG file, and took a screenshot of the outlines, seen below.

The tools I found myself using often were:

• Pathfinder

• Selection and Sub-Selection Tool

• Eye Dropper

The keyboard shortcuts I found myself using often included:

• cmd + c/v

• cmd + z

• Spacebar (for hand tool)

• V and A key for selection and sub-selection key

• Screenshot (CMD+Shift+4)

• Outlines (CMD+Y)
