The video tutorial explores how sliders can be used to create scale copies of shapes. It begins by introducing the concept of sliders and their role in scaling shapes. The tutorial then analyzes the effects of sliders on Shape B, noting that only the width is scaled, not the height. A comparison is made between Shape A and Shape B, highlighting that Shape A scales both width and height, creating true scale copies. A second example is provided to reinforce the concept, demonstrating how sliders can be used to scale both dimensions of a shape equally.
