Join Deke McClelland for an in-depth discussion in this video Mapping a logo or other art onto a 3D object, part of Illustrator CC 2018 One-on-One Mastery.
- In this movie, I'll show you how to map a logo…or other artwork onto a 3D object.…And this applies to any object that you create…using the extrude and bevel or revolve commands.…It does not apply to rotate.…Okay, I'll go ahead and switch over to my artwork so far…and I'll press the V key to switch back…to my black arrow tool.…Now the flares layer's going to get in the way,…so I'm going to lock it down again,…and then I'm going to turn on this logo layer right here…which contains that sun symbol that I borrowed…from Photoshop, along with a little bit of text…set in Myriad Pro, and then we've got this text right here,…which is set in a font that's actually available…from Typekit, called SignPainter HouseScript.…
And House Industries, incidentally,…is the name of the font foundry.…So you could sync to that font if you want to,…but just to make things easier, I've converted the text…to outlines, but I want to make it clear, this could be…live editable text, just like this point text right there.…Alright, so I'm going to select everything on this logo layer…
