  Morphing an image into text

  Posted by Todd Schmidt on February 22, 2009 at 6:07 am

  Hey all,

  I’m looking to render an image into a text logo. I was messing with the reshape effect but even when I create outlines or use auto trace on the text I’m not getting a mask, or it doesn’t show up. Is there an easy way to do this?

  Thanks,

  Todd

  Yes, actually I did this tut before and morphed using it. Came out nice. Just had trouble with actual text after making masks out of it. After reading the tut again alot came back to me and I figured out something that has worked! One problem is, adding correspondence points became very difficult. Even zoomed all the way in they wouldn’t add. Nasty buggers!
