Apple Shares 'Mantra Collage' iPad Tutorial With Artist Quentin Jones

by

Apple today shared a tutorial video designed to walk users through using the free Keynote app to create an animated mantra collage on the iPad. Apple collaborated with artist Quentin Jones on the six minute video, which is part of a "Creative Projects" series.


The tutorial covers gathering inspiration and photos, writing a mantra, using Split View, cutting out photos with the shapes tool, using Instant Alpha to remove negative space, adding words and embellishments with Apple Pencil, creating a dynamic GIF, and more.

To follow along with the tutorial, users will need an ‌iPad‌, the Keynote app, and an ‌Apple Pencil‌, though the ‌Apple Pencil‌ is optional.

Keynote is an awesome product.
Creating mantras rather not. Sounds like some people have a lot of spare time.

In Romance language derived words letter G followed by a vowel is pronounced as a J.

In Germanic derived words it becomes a hard G.
The origin of a word is an influence on it pronunciation but not the final determiner. The accepted pronunciation of a word is nothing more than its (most generally) accepted pronunciation.

In any case GIF is not a word derived from a foreign word but an acronym where the G is derived from an English word that has a hard G.

In 2013 Steve Wilhite got a Lifetime Achievement award for both simultaneously inventing the word and getting its pronunciation wrong. 😉

As is "gift"? I always wondered why it was spelt with a G and not a J. 🤔🤣
In Romance language derived words letter G followed by a vowel is pronounced as a J.

In Germanic derived words it becomes a hard G.

The founder of GIF said it should be said with a soft G but I say gif with hard g or soft g interchangeably because nobody gives af.

Do people say NAYTO or NATO? I also say both interchangably because as an internationally renowned super spy I have to change my accent every 11 minutes.

James Bond and Jason Bourne still didn’t learn this trick.
