Transform Images into Cut Files: The Ultimate Silhouette Studio Tutorial

preview_player
Показать описание
This is a no frills, no fluff tutorial that will show you the easiest way to convert images (jpeg, png files) into cut files (svg, Silhouette files). Images are typically saved as a raster file, but you NEED a vector file in order to have cut lines. The cut lines tell your Cameo, Portrait, or Curio where to cut, so a vector file is absolutely necessary.

Most times, we can find a vector file on sites like Creative Fabrica or The Silhouette Design Store, but other times. we need something completely custom, and THIS is how we get it.

I have broken this process down into the simplest terms. It's easy peasy... I promise!

You just need the Image Effects Panel and the Trace Panel - and I even show you how to open them both at once so that you can work more efficiently.

If you have any questions or just want to show off your latest project, hop on over to Facebook and join the Silhouette group!

When you say "this will act as our bottom layer" - what does this mean? These tutorials never show the end product and how each layer is composed from software to cut to assemble. It's hard to visualise what you're doing without seeing what you're trying to achieve if that makes sense. Thanks for this tutorial, learnt a lot - just needed to see what the end product looked like with the layers/details and colours. Thanks

I have the Cameo 5. My Trace panel only has "Select Trace Area, " not trace by color. Also, how can I ungroup something I've created this way? Copy and paste it, and erase what I don't need?

Very nice! That would be a nightmare to have to weed all that out after cutting it.

So I’m not scratching my head, could you please help me understand why you traced the bones then took spooky vibes and traced it too and put over it. I know I’m confusing lol

How did you add the files to be converted in the first place? I missed that step!
