702 Object blends and dynamic distortions in Illustrator

- Hey, gang, this is Deke McClelland.…Welcome to Deke's Techniques.…Now, this week, we're going to take that artwork that…we refined last week inside Adobe Illustrator…which contains a bunch of object blends…that are cutting through and slicing across each other,…and we're going to roughen up the edges…using what I call path wigglers,…but officially, they're known as dynamic distortions,…and a great thing about this is that…even though object blends were first introduced…in Illustrator 88 back in 1988,…dynamic distortions came along in Illustrator 9,…many years later.…

These two features are entirely compatible with each other…so we have a live, editable piece of artwork.…Now, specifically, we're going to be working with…two commands, Tweak, and Zig Zag,…and in case you've ever wondered how these features work,…I'm going to show you exactly how they work in this movie.…All right, here's the final version of…our various dynamic distortions,…just so you have a chance to see it on screen.…We're going to start off inside this file,…
