Hope it’s a useful tutorial and one that you can use in your own design projects in the future. We’ve created this unique 3D long shadow-style text effect in a matter of minutes. And then we’re gonna head back over to Objects. And then we’re simply gonna select both of those layers, head over to Objects, select Blend Options, and we’re gonna change it to become Specified Steps. And then we’re gonna change the foreground color to become black, so it matches the same color as the canvas. And then what we’re gonna do from there, we’re gonna right-click and select Arrange, Send to Back. We don’t want it to touch the text underneath. And what we’re simply gonna do is just slightly just drag it down ever so slightly. We’re just gonna add a stroke to our text, a black stroke of one pixel, and then simply just going to copy our text, and then Control V to paste, or Command V for a Mac.

From there we’re gonna select Object, Expand. And I’m just gonna select the text, center it into the middle of our canvas. And we’re just gonna change that text to become white. We’re gonna type out creative nerds and tutorials as the third line.

So, we wanna start off by selecting the type tool, and we’re just gonna type out some texts in the middle of our canvas. In today’s Illustrator tutorial, we’ll be showing you how you can create a unique long shadow, style text effects using Illustrator.
