2. Upload a sample advertisement/poster developed through CorelDRAW and spot the different special effects used that make it a professional artwork.
* Their own logo is a very good example, based on my perception they used the shadow drop tool as you can see the logo looks like it is floating from the surface. They also used Transparency tool, making the logo glossy. Use a special fill tool for the blending, used text Tool for the product name, also used rectangle tool with a little touch of shape edit tool, etc.
