Join Deke McClelland for an in-depth discussion in this video 601 Oodles of differently angled screw heads, part of Deke's Techniques.
- [Instructor] In this video, I'll show you how to create…all these ornamental screw heads,…that appear at the ends,…as well as the intersections of these inline strokes.…You may notice that the screw heads appear…at a variety of angles.…And I was able to automate that process,…largely by way of an application,…of a Dynamic Transform effect, here inside Illustrator.…I'll start by switching over to that document I…created in the previous movie.…And notice this dots layer,…here at the top of the Layers panel.…I'll go ahead and turn it on to reveal a bunch of circles…that I drew manually using the Ellipse tool.…
These circles will serve as the bases for our screw heads.…And so, I'll go ahead and duplicate this layer,…by clicking on the Flyout menu icon,…in the top right corner of the Layers panel,…and choosing Duplicate dots.…Then I'll turn off the original, and double-click in an…empty portion of this layer,…to bring up the Layer Options dialogue box.…I'll go ahead and call this guy screw heads, obviously.…And I'll change the color to something that we can…
