Other Homework Help. digital illustrator – Applying Value and Depth
In this exercise, you will be using the techniques covered in the lesson this week to add highlights and shading to create a stronger sense depth and lighting. Use the flat color Illustration (Color_Exercise_01) that you created in Module 03.
When determining where or why to add shading, the important reasons to focus on are:
- Create a mood – Use light and shadow to enhance your flat color
- Add Values – Establish light source to show light and shadow
- Show Dimension – Use color and shading to give the illusion of depth
Focusing on one shading reason can include the others. For example, shading the illustration to indicate a light source will help create the illusion of depth.
