Well, hello and welcome to the vlog. It is Monday. It's the last Monday of October. It feels weird But anyway, I already had my doctor's appointment. I am still working at the moment But I thought I'd take like a little couple minute break and say hey So yeah, hello. Hi. I just printed out my smart money tickets for tonight Jody and her husband and I are going to the Dave Ramsey Show what is it conference? I don't know. It's like one of their live events So I believe it's gonna be him and Chris Hogan, but I just saw on Instagram that Rachel crosses in town, too So maybe she'll be there. That would be kind of fun but I think Dave Ramsey and Chris Hogan are the ones scheduled to speak but maybe maybe I'm mistaken I know Dave Ramsey is scheduled to speak but anyway, so we are gonna go and do that and then Jody and I are gonna Go grab some pizza beforehand. I'm meeting her at about 4 30. So that'll be good But this working from home thing is actually pretty good. However, only downfall is this one right here That guy He has been whining and crying because he wants to go outside because I'm here and he does it all weekend when I'm home And he just wants to go and this is not like I don't know It's 1144. So maybe we can go outside for like five minutes, but Doyle seriously buddy He just wants all the walks guys. He just wants he wants all the walks. Hi, buddy I know I know don't give you any attention because I'm busy working. I know I know how it is Okay, we're gonna go on a quick walk and then I will be back in a little while I also need to grab some food for lunch and then I'm gonna bring my food up here So yeah, I got a bunch of stuff for salads yesterday So I think I'll just throw one of those together real quick and then I'll come back up here and keep working on my projects. Hi Doyle Hi Are you gonna work for me? Are you working from home? Well, you work from home every day Okay, I will see you guys in a little bit. So I just got done walking the doodle dog and threw together a salad for myself So this is what I got going on. Wow. Sorry. I can't I can't vlog. I'm a professional y'all So there is lettuce a little bit of grated cheese I've got tomato cucumber and a hard-boiled egg and then I put on Catalina dressing because that's my favorite dressing. So anyway, I'm gonna eat this I need to respond back to some emails and get back to work And then I am going to meet a co-worker at a local coffee shop at about one o'clock And then we're gonna work for a couple of hours together. So That's what's going on here. And then I will just check in with you guys Probably when I'm with Jody, I think I think that's the next time I'll check in but anyway, I will see you guys in a little bit We're in like the moonlight Moonlight lovers We're just leaving the Dave Ramsey event Yeah, it was good good refresh. We're gonna talk about that good refresh We decided to leave a little early because We both have a long way to drive I've only got like a half hour, which is odd. Are we down this way? I think we're down the next one. Yeah Jody's got like an hour drive. I'm at a half hour. I'm usually the hour and she's usually But we both have to work in the morning and Rachel Cruz was here, which was kind of cool. She was kind of like a little surprise guest Which was kind of awesome. I Hopefully have shown you guys a little footage before this. I don't know what future Emily's gonna do But we'll go with it. I did get to meet Jody's husband Chris, the enigma is what I called him.  Oh Goodness. All right. Here's our cars. All right. We gotta go. Bye Well, hello, I am home Finally, it is 10 15. I'm gonna have an interesting day tomorrow. Yikes I am currently filling up my teapot with all the water. So it's good to go for tomorrow morning because I Actually did that last week where I didn't have hardly any water in there and got back from the walk and had a little breakfast and realized I Didn't have enough water in there for my Caffeination station so that kind of sucked, but we are good to go for tomorrow, which is half the battle But yeah, the Dave Ramsey thing was really good Like I said, we left a little bit earlier, but it was good We got a like packets of Information and we didn't go to marriage in money. That's just like a our money in marriage That's like it's an advertisement for them. And then when we left there was people handing these out, so I don't know some sort of like DVD maybe I don't know and then we got these really cool leather embossed things that say Ramsey solutions on one side and then the other side says Live like no one else. So I actually I'm like really into this. So I will keep this for sure Doyle is currently drinking. I have my water here as well Which I need to finish and I need to take my medication before I go to bed as well so yeah, that is Sorry That is it for the day. Hope you guys enjoyed a look inside of my life And I will see you guys tomorrow for another vlogtober. Thanks for watching guys. Bye Well folks it's time to kick it old school


Live from Denver, Colorado, it's theCUBE.  Hey, welcome back to theCUBE's coverage of Commvault Go 19 from Colorado. I'm Lisa Martin with Stu Miniman. Stu and I are pleased to welcome somebody new to theCUBE and to Commvault. We've got Tom Broderick, VP of Strategy and Chief of Staff at the CEO of Commvault. Tom, welcome to the program. Thanks for having me. So, I like your on-brand, the new Commvault Venture metallic, very nice. That's right, I had the head of the jacket on yesterday. Wow, all right. So, lots of change at Commvault. You're new as well.  Now, this is your third different company working with Sanjay Burjandani, the CEO. Talk to us a little bit about your short time here at Commvault, there's been so much change that he's driving, cultural change, metallic was something that was conceived, designed, built in a very short time period. Lot of acceleration. Your first few months here, what's it been like? Yeah, it's been obviously a ton of activity, right? And, you know, one of the things that we know and I think it's obvious, Commvault as a company has been in this, you know, state of transition, right? This is, you know, you bring a new CEO on and we've got a new leadership team that is merging well with the core leadership team of people that have a lot of experience at the company and it's working really well. You know, from the beginning, we knew we needed to focus on three areas, inside the company and outside. So, it's really around, as we talk to folks, around simplifying our business. And when we say that, you know, normally in an event like this, it goes towards how do we simplify working with our partners? How do we simplify working with our customers? How do we simplify our products, that kind of thing? But, you know, from my perspective, one of the things that I focus on is also how we focus on simplifying ourselves on the inside, right? Because this is an area where we can be much more efficient in how we bring our technology to the marketplace. And so, I'm focused on breaking down silos. I'm focused on driving effective communication in the business so that we can deliver that technology to our partners and to our customers. So, simplifying the business. Innovation is the next big key, right? So, obviously, our technology, and this is one of the things before coming on, I did a lot of research on Commvault technology. I'd been out of this part of the market for quite some time. And, you know, the core technology, super solid. But we needed to innovate further, right? And shoulder out into different areas. And that's where you see things like Metallic come into play, the acquisition of Hedvig, right, where we're using our balance sheet in a way that's very different for the company. This is our first acquisition as a company, right? And then, of course, all the new features and functions that we put into SB17, which is just released in the core product. And then lastly, it's around execution, right? And so, simplify, innovate, execute. And when we talk about execution, a lot of that falls on the go-to-market side, right? And so, this feeds right into some of those leadership changes that we announced this week and that we announced earlier, bringing folks like Ricardo de Blasio on. And that's how we think about things. So, that's been a structure that's allowed us to do so much change in such a little amount of time. So, Tom, I'd love to dig into that a little bit. So, you know, we've talked to, Commvault Traditiony has done a decent job of trying to move a little faster. So, if you talk about the core product, it's on a 90-day release cycle. It's better than it's not the, you know, nine to 18 months train that many of us that have been in the industry a long time is like, okay, we got to get on the train, jam everything into it, hope we get to the end that we actually release something that we're happy with and it's supported and it works.  Very different mindset. I'm curious what you learned there and how that is really permeating the whole industry and therefore, and what changes need to happen into Commvault to live in this new SAS world like Metallics going to offer and, you know, if you're not delivering code, you know, what are you doing? Yeah, so it's a great question, Stu. And, you know, the thing is, obviously we're living in a different world than what we were 20 years ago, right? Agile methodologies have, you know, sped everything up and people are used to faster release cycles and, you know, how do we get new features out to customers in a much more expeditious way? The challenge, though, and I'll bet, you know, if folks are watching this, you know, the challenge internally is how you do that effectively, right? So one of the things that we did at Puppet was we had to get better at bringing the technology to the market end-to-end across the business, right? So inside the business. It's not enough for the developers to say, okay, code's ready and just throw it out there, right? Or is the field enabled, right? Is the pricing right? Is the packaging right? Is the documentation right? Are the marketing, you know, is marketing activated? All those elements of it. And so this is, again, this is a little bit inside baseball from a conval perspective. We're institutionalizing this as one of the core processes that helps us operate the business. I talk a lot about inside, I talk about how sometimes you have to go slow to go fast, right? And what I mean by that is the cross-functional elements of the business need to get together sooner in the process to make sure that everybody's on the same page aligned, they know the key dependencies and they know when they can make their deliverables so that when we're ready to go to market with a new technology or a new product or a new service pack release that everybody is ready to go with that because it does nobody any good. If the code's ready, you throw it over the wall and then it just kind of falls down because people outside weren't ready. But operational simplification, as you're describing, that's really challenging to do. Number one, number two, doing it at a company that's been in business for 20 years where you have different functions, you probably have some incumbent folks in there. Lot of change, how have you been able to accomplish that in such a short time period? It seems like one of the things that Stu and I have been hearing is that there was a lot of receptiveness within the incumbency internally at Combo, but that's a big operational simplification is no simple feat. No, it's really easy when you write it down on a piece of paper. It is, right? Once you get the humans involved, right? But the thing is, and this is one of the things that I've noticed at Combo that's been tremendously refreshing to me is that we have about 2,500 people in the organization. And if I was going to just give a massive generalization, we have 2,500 people that want to do the right thing. And they truly want to do the right thing for our customers. The issue in the past is that they haven't been aligned in all the same direction or set of directions. And so we were a little bit haphazard in certain ways. But people want to do the right thing. Once I started talking about these concepts and once we started implementing them and now that we're actually seeing results, it's amazing. I have so many people coming up to me saying, wow, this is, it's so, I didn't really get it at first. And, but now that we're actually implementing these kinds of processes inside the company, it's amazing the transformation that we're seeing and we're so glad that we're doing it. Can you talk to us about the decisions for the Commvault Ventures? It's one of the things that struck me when I saw some of the press releases earlier in the week, Metallic, a Commvault Venture, the Hedvig Acquisition, a Commvault Venture. It's some of the conversations that Stu and I have had this week. It's like a startup mentality within Commvault. Talk to us about the strategic decision to go that venture inside Commvault route. Yeah, sure, absolutely. So obviously Hedvig is indeed a venture, right? I mean, by acquiring a company, they were a startup. But as we looked at bringing them into the Commvault fold, internally, inside the company, we had some guiding principles that we created straight away. And number one guiding principle was don't break the business. Meaning we're not going to come in and overwhelm them with Commvault, right? Because they created a successful entity amongst themselves, right? And a great technology that we think fits really well into the family, into our portfolio. But we do want to create some sort of, some degree of separation because, you know, A, we might be talking to different customers, right? This is why I think I saw David Wigglesworth on a little bit earlier, right? And he's setting up the emerging technologies sales unit, because they're going to be taking this to market in a little bit different way, right? The development team is not being merged right into our core development team, right? They're remaining a unit amongst themselves reporting into Sanjay, right, directly into Sanjay. On the metallic side, we did take the startup approach from the beginning. And we said, look, it's easy for organizations to say, hey, we want to build this new thing to serve this new part of the market, and we're going to invest resources into it. Let's put the plans together and go get it done. But especially for public companies too, it's easy on your 90 day cycles to all of a sudden say, you know what, we have to rebalance or take those funds that we were going to put there and move them elsewhere. And we said, no, we can't do this. This is super strategic to us. We have to ring fence it and we have to let them do, build this product in a different way. And so I was talking about business readiness before in terms of the process that we institute. They were actually the first group to implement it within their small team and it created a great proof point for the rest of the organization to see how it works. So, Tom, we've had some great conversations with a lot of the new leadership this week. You mentioned we had the conversation with Wigs. He's starting to hire some of those sales people. Are we, we know there's always change and going on in the environment, but is Commvault mostly through with the strategic leadership hires? And now it's kind of down to the next layer as to things like the overlays and some of the new initiatives or is there still more work to be done on kind of the structural piece of things? Good question, Stu. Our work is never done. I think it's the same with any organization, right? I think most of the major parts and pieces are put in place like where we want them. One of the things that you mentioned earlier that I've, this is my third tour of duty with Sanjay and I'll say one of the really powerful things that he brings to an organization is the ability to build a strong, well-functioning leadership team. And I say well-functioning, right? And he did it at EMC, he did it at Puppet, and he's doing it here. And we now have, we've got that senior leadership team in place that is going to be continuing down this path of positive momentum that we've got. Yeah, one of the challenges making through this big move, we said that the team definitely was receptive. We know that they're ready, but clear communication. Any, just without getting into too many proprietary things that you've done, what tips can you have to make sure that an organization of this experience and this size isn't just going to get like, oh my God, whiplash, they're changing management, I don't know where I fit or anything like that. How do we make sure that you get everybody pointing towards the true north and ready is, I think the word we've heard over and over, so make sure that everybody in Commvault is ready to move forward? It's hard and it takes a lot of discipline, right? I do think you need to be as transparent as you can be with the workforce and with your employees. They need to understand where we're going with this because if it's just a bunch of change for change's sake, that's a difficult environment to live in. And we're certainly not that, right? We have objectives and goals and we know what we want to get to. Obviously there are strategic elements of it that we can't necessarily discuss all the time, but at least directionally, we have to be able to explain the moves that we're making in such a way that makes sense to people, right? And if we believe it, right, and we've done our diligence, then it should be transferable and we should be able to make it so that it's clear to everybody on the Commvault team. And so we are focused on making that happen. Internally, we do a lot of communication, right? Sanjay writes a lot of blogs internally. Sandy Hamilton writes a lot of blogs. Ricardo is constantly talking to the teams, right? And that just permeates down. We need to continue to get better at it. It's hard, right? Organizational communications are hard, but we need to lead from the top as well, make sure that as we demonstrate what it means to communicate that all throughout the organization, we're creating that sort of culture. In the last few seconds here, Tom, I would just love to get your perspectives. What's one of the biggest thing that you're going to take away at the last three days of your first Commvault Go? Wow. Two minute account? It's exciting. I'll say that. Very specifically, walking through the metallic booth and the head big booth is inspiring to me. I mean, the amount of traffic going through those two booths. That's exactly. That's probably what that applause is for right now. In fact, it is. I see it. It is. They invited me over at four o'clock. I said, I couldn't make it. It's been truly inspiring. And I think people are excited. And for me, obviously you want your customers excited. You want your partners to be excited. But for me too, it's just as important to have our employees excited. And that's a major takeaway that I'm bringing from this conference. I think we would echo that. We've heard a lot of excited folks. Well, Tom, thank you for joining Stu and me on the program. We look forward to Commvault Go 2020 already. Thank you. Thank you very much. Excellent. For Stu Miniman, I'm Lisa Martin. You're watching theCUBE from Commvault Go 19.


All right, I have a brief public service announcement in this video, and that is, stop using i3. You don't need to use i3 anymore. i3's over, DWM is the new cool stuff. Actually, I think DWM has been longer than i3, but it's never been better to use DWM. It's never been better to use suckless software, and it's only getting better, and getting better way faster than everyone else. Okay, I wanna talk in this video about two things, two misconceptions. I really wanna talk about DWM, but this sort of applies to all suckless software. I'm actually thinking about doing a couple videos on my DWM build. I think you should all test it out. All of you who are using my old i3 config, use DWM. This stuff is way cooler, but I might be doing some videos on that. I wanna talk about two reasons. I think that suckless software is just always gonna be better and easier to use once you understand how it works. So here are the two things, okay? First thing is this. When you're, let's put you in the position of someone who's modifying, who wants to get a custom Linux set up on i3, and you wanna have all this fancy stuff, and you wanna make it exactly to your liking and stuff like that, or at least make things more efficient, okay? If you're using i3, or if you're using a non-suckless window manager, the thing about that is they're all designed with config files. That is, if you use i3, you modify that config file, and you're sort of at the mercy of the programmers whatever variables and settings they put in that config file to allow you to edit. So you might be able to change the gaps between windows, you might be able to change what kind of bar you have, or stuff like that, or specific settings, but the thing about that is that there comes a point where you can't modify it anymore. You can't, there are only so many things that are in the config file. Suckless software does not work like that, because suckless software, of course, its config file is the source code. You are intended to modify the source code, and the suckless community or whatever is built around that. So the difference is, now of course, in any suckless program, usually you have config.h, or config.def.h, and this is sort of supposed to be the config file. It's really just part of the source code, but it's supposed to look like a config file in that here's where you set a lot of the variables you use. So for example, here's the border of our windows here, see the little red border here, how big is that? Or gaps, if gaps are active or stuff like that, or your colors, or your fonts, it sort of works like a config file. But in suckless software, this is just one piece of the config file, and I could just as easily, if I want to program in a new feature, I could just as easily open up DWM.C, and edit stuff like that. No, of course you might say, oh, I'm not a programmer. I don't know anything about that. And you don't need to be a programmer. Here's the nice thing.  No, no, I'm not a programmer at all. I've never said I am. I do a lot of shell scripting for useful stuff, but I'm definitely not a C programmer. I mean, I know basically what I know about C, I learned from suckless, using suckless stuff and figuring things out and fixing bugs if I ever messed something up. But in general, you don't need to know anything about C to understand suckless software because you can just go online and get a patch and install it and you just gotta go into your little file and run patch on your patch. And let's say you pick some kind of, I don't know, let's say you pick this one and you just run it. If there are any errors, you fix them manually. It's not a difficult process to do at all. You don't really need to know. You can do it with any language. You don't need to have an intimate knowledge of C. Now, of course that is good if you wanna add new features. But in my time of using suckless, it's been great that I can just go online and whereas you might look for a feature, oh, if it exists in I3, there is no feature that does not exist in DWM. This is the nice thing because it's supposed to be modified. The core source code is supposed to be modified. So that's the one advantage. There's no border between the config file and the source code. So you're intended to modify the whole thing and the community is built around that fact. The other big advantage of suckless stuff is as follows. And this is gonna sound like the opposite of the truth, but suckless software has more features. It will always have more features. And what I mean by that is this. First off, I'm pulling up the DWM website obviously. I'm gonna go to the patches folder. Now, the first thing you need to realize is so many people are using DWM now, I'm actually very happy. You can look at the number of patches here, look at this. I mean, it's like dozens, maybe over a hundred, maybe over 200 for all I know, I'm not counting them up. But you have so many patches. One year ago, there were like maybe 20 of these. I don't know, there were a lot less, I'll just say that. And I think it's the same with other suckless software. I think it's really taken off recently and that's been great. But here's the thing, suckless software has more features. And what I mean by that is that although you get, you get the Bayer source code, the Bayer build of DWM has really basic features. It does some really cool stuff when you understand how DWM works. I'm thinking about doing another video on that soon because again, I want people to move over because I'm sick of maintaining I3, but it might come with not many features.  We don't have to worry if you're asking, well, just to put it in perspective. If you're asking for a feature in I3, okay, let's say you want the ability to, I don't know, some really granulated feature to change the gaps between windows or something like that. Okay, I don't know. You wanna be able to change horizontal versus vertical gaps, okay? You know, the guys at I3 have to think, okay, well, do we wanna add this feature? Is it feature bloat? Is it gonna be too complicated? Is it gonna mess stuff up? Stuff like that. The suckless guys don't need to think about that. No one needs to because they're not, when you ask for a feature, they're not adding it to every build. They're just putting up a patch on the website and most of these patches, I'm sure the guys at suckless are like, those are totally unnecessary features. In fact, some of them are contradictory. They have multiple different gaps packages. They have multiple, I think they have different auto start or refresh packages and stuff like that. Or patches, I should say. So the nice thing about suckless software is that you actually get more features because they don't have to constantly guess, do we really want to have this in our default build? Because they just have a bare bones build and you put in the features you like. And the features that are out there that you can put into DWM, they are way better than all the stuff in other window managers. Oh, I'm sure there's some stuff they haven't touched on yet. But in general, you just have much more. I mean, this is their official site. It has so many potentially installable official features. It's fantastic, okay? So that is the big difference. I think a lot of people get fixated on, well okay, I'll tell you my perspective back when I used i3. I heard that suckless software, you had to modify the source code. I thought that was totally nuts. I just assumed that compiling it would take a long time. It takes like two seconds. Let's actually do it right now just to make sure, pseudo make install, okay? There, that's how long it takes to compile DWM. It doesn't take long. It's not a complicated procedure. As I said, like they have, the reason this config file, config.h file exists is so you can modify features in the most economical way as possible. It's easy to do. It's basically the same.   If you wanna think of, I mean that could be dangerous if you're auto-installing it. You might get a broken build or something like that, but you can put checks in it. But this is one of those things where unlike in other window managers, DWM can add, like people can build just any feature for it. There's nothing keeping them from writing anything and Suclis can even officially, I don't know if it's support, but officially put these on their websites even if they would never include them as features in their actual official build. And so they can be more liberal with features than anyone else. So this is what I like. This is what I like about Suclis software. Is it difficult to use? No, it isn't. It is, oh, like there's a different mindset that goes into it, I think. But it is so, there are so many, there's so much wonkiness of I3 or other window managers you don't have to worry about DWM. As long as you're not fighting against it and you sort of know what you're doing and you'll find out what you're doing, it's not hard to do. Just tinker with it at the beginning and then you'll see where you go. Anyway, I might do some videos on DWM. Actually, just notice I've added in features for a clickable status bar.  It's up for even better. I've added in a couple of features to DWM. I might do a video just actually on those. This is just sort of me talking about why it's better. So stop using I3. Stop using whatever window manager you're using. Just use DWM. Or, can't forbid you're using like KDE or something like that, or Nome, or I don't even know what else there is. I just know window managers. All right, see you guys next time. Oh, by the way, check that out. I'm looking at my recording. Perfect E-celeb status. I just instinctually knew that I was right at 10 minutes and I would get my mid-abroad break so I could just stop the video. Wow, I'm just a professional. Anyway, see you guys next time.


Hello everybody, welcome back to another Adobe Illustrator tutorial and this one, I'm going to show you how to warp text. As you can see here, I've gone ahead and I've taken some standard text and I've made it nice and cool and warpy looking and I'm going to show you how to do this step by step, so let's get going. The first step, you want to go to File, when you open Illustrator, go to File, New and let's work with an Art and Illustration size artboard. The size of this doesn't really matter, if I'm being honest. So we've got a nice cool little white background here. The next step, I want to work in some bright colors, so I'm going to click on the ellipse. Pardon, I'm going to click on the Rectangle tool, that's the better tool. Click on the Rectangle tool in the toolbar, I'm going to hover on the top left and I'm going to create a rectangle that goes right around the whole thing. It does nothing, but that's because the fill color is set to the background color. So I'm just going to double click, I'm just going to click on the fill one time and you'll see that we get the Swatches panel and I'm going to select red. Alright, cool, we've got a new background, also keep in mind I've got my toolbar here. If you can't see anything that I click on, feel free to go to Window and then just make sure there's a check mark beside the toolbar that if I use it and you don't see it, just click there and you'll be able to see it. So there we go, the next step is we're going to create some text now. So I'm going to go over to the left side and I'm going to switch to the, we're going to go to the Text tool and it's actually the Type tool, it's called. And I'm going to left click on it once and I get the Type tool. Now I'm just going to left click anywhere on the canvas and you'll see here we've got a very, very small font to start. So I'm just going to type in Curtis, my name, okay? Or I'm just going to type in Warp. Warp. Alright, cool. And it is Miniscule. So with that, what I'm going to do is I'm going to grab the corner. I'm going to hold down Shift and I'm going to increase the size and it increases proportionally if you hold Shift down. So I just want to make it nice and big. Okay, something like that, cool. If you guys are falling along, that shouldn't be too hard. I'll move it up a little bit somewhere around here so you can see what I'm doing. Perfect. Now, if you want to, you can change the font. But for me, it defaults to Myriad Pro. And that is a very common, I think that's what it defaults to in the 2021 version. But if you want to change it to something interesting, like, I don't know, I've got, let's see, I like Railway. Let's type in Railway. I'm going to go with Railway. Actually, you know what? Let's just stick with Myriad because anybody can follow along with Myriad. So I'm going to go to Myriad and I'm just going to select Bold. So it's nice and big, okay? Myriad Bold, Myriad Pro Bold, pardon me. And off we go. Now, the next step is we want to start making some adjustments to it, but before we do that, you want to right click on it and make sure that you've selected everything. Right click and you want to create outlines. This allows us to go in there and do some hammer and chisel work. So now that we've created outlines, now we're going to go up to Object at the top. We're going to go down all the way to where is it? Envelope Distort. And here's the one. We're going to warp it, but we're going to make it with a mesh. So we're going to distort it with a mesh for this one. So I'm going to left click on Make with Mesh and it's going to load up the Envelope Mesh option. Now, you can go ahead and add as many rows as you'd like. If you want to just work on the outsides, you can go ahead with one row. If you want to have three rows and you want to work a little bit on the inside, that's fine too. And you can also change the number of columns. I'm just going to go with three and three because I just want to show you the technique, not make anything super fancy. Left click on OK, bang, we're on our way. Now, this is another important part. You'll see here we've got the selection tool selected. You want to move to the direct selection tool instead. You can click on that or you can press A. When you do that, when I hover over top of the mesh here, you're going to see that I can start making changes to it because you'll see like I'm going to left click on this anchor point here and right click on it up.  Maybe we'll click on the bottom here and we'll pull that down. OK, cool. So we're going to warp the edges. I'm going to warp this one up like the last one and then I'm going to warp this one down. Kind of in a similar pattern. OK, cool. This is how you can make warp effects. You can also go ahead and like add in like cool things like this, maybe make the art a little smaller. That's a little too small. So it's not quite as big a jump. OK, we've got a little R. We've got a medium A. You can change the handles. Again, I'm just showing you the technique. What it ends up looking like is completely up to you, obviously. But anyways, we've got a nice cool warp effect. This might be enough for all you're looking to do and you've got some nice organic warp to it. You can go a step further. I'm going to go back up here. I'm going to click the selection tool. Then I'm going to go down and you're going to see somewhere around here the free transform tool. You can press E for it. I should have said that. Left click on the free transform tool and now you can go ahead and start making some more changes. This will open up this little option here where you can do free distort. You can do perspective distort. You can free transform and constraint. I'm going to go ahead and perspective distort this and I'm going to change this outside here. So I'm going to go ahead and wobble it a bit. So a little bit like that. All right, cool. Maybe I'll wobble this down a bit. Then I'm going to go ahead and select free distort and I'm going to make some more changes. I'm going to click this and then I'm going to move it up like this. Honestly, it's completely up to you. As you can see here, I'm just sort of wobbling it the way I feel. But yeah, you can go ahead and start making all sorts of transformations. You can add it in. You can go. Let's see here. You want to maybe warp it up like that? Nah. Either way, guys. Go ahead. Make some transforms. Make some changes. This is how you warp text. Inside it will be Illustrator. Thank you for watching. I will be back soon with some more tutorials. Back to you.
