Illustrator: Digital Graphics Basics

It enhances visual appeal and conveys information.

It only makes images brighter.

It is not important in digital graphics.

It is used only for backgrounds.

Resolution, color management, size, file formats

Brightness, contrast, saturation, hue

Layers, filters, gradients, masks

Animation, transitions, sound, video

High-resolution images have more pixels and appear sharper, while low-resolution images have fewer pixels and appear blocky or blurry

High-resolution images use more colors, while low-resolution images use fewer colors

High-resolution images are larger in file size, while low-resolution images are smaller

High-resolution images are only used for print, while low-resolution images are only used for web

Pixels are tiny squares from which digital images are composed

A normal photograph contains millions of pixels

Each pixel can display multiple colors at once

An individual pixel is a single color

Altering the number of pixels in an image

Changing the color mode of an image

Adjusting the brightness of an image

Cropping the image to a new size

Pixels

Inches

Centimeters

Megabytes

Vector artwork is converted into another form

The color mode of the image is changed

The file is compressed for storage

The image is cropped to a new size

Are made from pixels

Can be infinitely scaled without loss of quality

Are often called bitmaps

Have a limit to the size they can be enlarged before appearing pixelated

Raster images are made from pixels, while vector images are made from paths and mathematical formulas.

Raster images can be infinitely scaled without loss of quality, while vector images become pixelated when scaled.

Vector images are captured on a digital camera, while raster images are created using anchor points.

Vector images are always larger in file size than raster images.
