today I have an illustrator tutorial for
you where we make a folded lettering
logo design in a matter of minutes this
is satori graphics
what is up people welcome back to satori
graphics home of graphic design content I
hope you're doing well today if you do
enjoy my tutorial let me know by leaving
a like and a comment as it really does
help my channel for a folded lettering
logo design we first need to select a
fill in the color palette the color
doesn't really matter at this stage and
then make a rectangle with the shape
tool if you're making numerous letters
you want to keep a copy of the original
shape so the thickness will stay the
same throughout so hold down alt and
click and drag to duplicate. Now with the direct selection tool, hold down
shift and select the top two points of
the rectangle you can press the left
arrow on your keyboard to notice them
over or you can track a guide from the
ruler to the top we select them and move
them over like so you can adjust where
these points are but make sure you move
them together by selecting both at once
once happy use the alt / option key to duplicate
again and then reflect the new shape
like so. you can select both shapes and
then align them are using the align tool
this will make sure they're perfectly in
place making the V of our folded
lettering logo design perfect
I want the shape on the right to be
behind so I'm going to send it to the
back now select the left hand shape of
the V and add a gradient appear like so
you can choose whatever color you wish
I'm going to use shades of blue the
trick is to have a dark shade at the
bottom that goes up to an almost white
at the top but make sure it's not
completely white
once you've done that and grab the
eyedropper tool you can use this to copy
the gradient on the first shape onto
your second one this time however we
want the lower shape to be darker and to
go a little bit higher up this will give
the illusion of being folded paper
lettering and it will create a shadow
effect our folding lettering logo
design is almost complete with new shape
selected flick the gradient fill over
to a stroke and then select the ellipse
tool you will make a circle around our V
logo mark you can hold down alt and
shift at the same time to generate the
circle like I'm doing here make the
stroke weight a little thicker until you
feel it looks best for you illustrator
logo design here you can change the
direction of your gradient
once you're happy select the circle and
outline the stroke ultimately making the
stroke circle a shape now all you have
to do is add some logo type and your
Foley lettering logo design is complete
