CorelDRAW Exercise: Realistic Reflection

This exercise guides you in creating a realistic reflection effect using text and an image.

Steps:

1. Create Text/Image: Type your text or import an image.
2. Duplicate and Mirror: Duplicate the object and mirror it vertically.
3. Position: Place the mirrored object below the original, slightly overlapping.
4. Transparency: Reduce the opacity of the mirrored object gradually.
5. Distortion: Apply a slight distortion effect (e.g., perspective, envelope) to the mirrored object to simulate the distortion caused by reflection.
6. Refine: Adjust the opacity, position, and distortion settings to achieve a realistic reflection.

Key Considerations:

• The opacity gradient is crucial for a realistic reflection.
• Experiment with different distortion effects.
• Consider adding subtle noise or blurring to the reflection for a more realistic look.

Result: A visually convincing reflection effect that enhances the depth and realism of your design.
