Most tools in Illustrator are relatively straight forward when using them for basic things however, they can get more difficult as you use them in more advanced ways. For example, the video goes over how to use the pen tool. To simply make a straight line, all you have to do is click on two point and it will make a straight line connecting those two points. However, in order to make a curved line, it requires a lot more practice that I think will take me a longer time to fully learn.
One tool win this video I thought that was easy but useful was to hold shift while adjusting the size of text so that way it changes size proportionally. Another easy shortcut that she talks about is "Command + 2" to lock whichever object you have selected. This is very useful to prevent things such as a background from moving around. During the video, one tool that I found might take some additional practice is the merging shapes tool.
An easy tool that this video talks about is managing layers. This tool can be useful for a number of reasons including moving certain items forward or backward which allows you to control what is in the foreground and what is in the background. A tool that might take a while for me to learn is one of the AI generative tools that may help me to get a shape or an image easier. This may take a while for me to learn exactly what prompts to give this tool so it gives me the image that I am looking for.
