💡Tutorial

A tutorial is a set of instructions or guidance on how to accomplish a specific task. In the context of this video, the tutorial is focused on creating a simple vector art, which is a form of digital art where images are made from mathematical equations defining simple geometric shapes. The video script provides step-by-step instructions on how to use Photoshop to create vector-like images, starting from opening the software to saving the final product.

💡Photoshop

Photoshop is a widely used software application for image editing, graphics design, and digital art creation. In the video, it is the primary tool used to demonstrate the process of creating a vector-like image. The script mentions opening Photoshop, creating a new canvas, and using various tools within the software to achieve the desired result.

💡Canvas

In digital art, a canvas refers to the virtual space where the artwork is created. The script specifies creating a new canvas with dimensions of 3000 by 3000 pixels, which sets the size and boundaries for the artwork being made in the tutorial.

💡Resolution

Resolution in digital imaging refers to the number of pixels per unit of length, which affects the clarity and detail of an image. The script mentions a resolution of 72, which is a standard for web images but might be lower for high-quality print work. It's a crucial setting when preparing an image for different uses.

💡Layer

In Photoshop, a layer is a transparency that can be edited independently from other layers. The script mentions creating a new layer for editing a photo and using layers to organize different elements of the artwork, such as the base color and shadows.

💡Brush Tool

The Brush Tool in Photoshop allows for painting and drawing with various brush shapes and sizes. The script refers to selecting and adjusting the brush size to match the body contour when tracing the outline of the subject in the image.

💡Pen Tool

The Pen Tool is used for creating precise paths or selections by clicking to set anchor points and forming a line. In the script, it is used to trace the body shape for creating the vector art, which is then followed by the brush for the stroke path.

💡Stroke Path

Stroke Path is a Photoshop feature that allows the user to apply a brush stroke along a path. The script describes using this feature after creating a path with the Pen Tool, to follow the traced outline with the brush stroke.

💡Paint Bucket Tool

The Paint Bucket Tool fills an area with a color based on a certain tolerance level. In the video script, it is used after selecting the base skin color to fill the traced area with this color, providing a solid foundation for the vector image.

💡Shadow and Highlight

In digital art, shadows and highlights are used to give depth and dimension to an image. The script discusses creating shadows by using a darker color and highlights with a lighter color to enhance the visual impact of the vector art.

💡Adjustment Layers

Adjustment layers in Photoshop allow for non-destructive editing of images, meaning the original image remains unaltered. The script mentions using an adjustment layer to clarify levels, which helps in adjusting the contrast and brightness to make the shadows and highlights more distinct.

💡Vector Art

Vector art is a type of graphic that is composed of points, lines, curves, and shapes, which are defined by mathematical equations. The script's main theme revolves around creating a simple vector-like image using Photoshop tools and techniques, which can be scaled infinitely without losing quality.
