Then I want to animate it, and it is super easy as promised. Now we can zoom back out, maybe even fit it to the screen, and then I'm going to switch back the visibility of the background, so now we actually seeing the result of the stroke effect. So in this case, I want to take this as low as maybe 5% in order to mimic the original artwork as close as I can, and then I need to sample the yellow color which is kind of problematic now because we actually hidden the original artwork, but we've already established this color in the previous step, so I can choose this eye dropper and sample the color of the layer itself in order to match it to the original design.
The second reason is of course ease of use.
Now we can see some of the original artwork drifting by, and this is because of this value, the spacing, so if you're using the stroke effect, you can actually determine the amount of spacing and achieve this unique look which is not appropriate in this design, but I just want you to see that you've got plenty of options using this effect, and this is one of the reason that I've chosen to start with it. Hold down shift and use the upper arrow in the keyboard in order to move in full increments, and I've found out that the value of eight pixels is going to work quite fine in this example, so I'm going to click away in order to approve the result. Now I'm going to click over here where it says brush size. Now I can return to the stroke effect, and I'm also going to zoom in so I can better see what I'm doing, and you can do it by pressing command plus or control plus on the PC. Now, in order to get myself a little bit of a reference, I'm going to switch off the visibility of the background which will expose underneath the original Adobe Illustrator document. This is basically where we left off in the previous movie, and in order to see where we are, I'm going to also click on the toggle mask and shape path visibility button over here. So I've saved my progress, and I'm going to select the first layer over here, yellow solid number two, and then I'm going to fold it down as well as open up the effect and double click on the word stroke, and this should open up the effects controls and also select the word stroke. In this movie, we'll match the design of the original artwork and use the stroke effect to animate the path.
