AI Image Live Tracing

October 8, 2020 By Poonum Mehta

I’ve been slowly working on an image live tracing training for a few days. Through this training, I learned how to make a detailed outline of an image, change the coloring and effects of that image, and turn it into a custom shape.

This is the original image I used:

 

I played around with the different image trace effects for a bit and created three different thresholds:

Finally, I created a work path to define a custom shape for my design, which is now saved on photoshop for later use. I added a color overlay and this is the final result!

 

This training was pretty fun and taught me the use for a bunch of small psd and ai tools that I’m familiar with but never really put into practice. Definitely looking forward to using the other image trace settings to create some cool outline graphics and maybe logo designs.
