This post will discuss a simple approach you can take to help you get a better feel for visualizing how different temporal generators work. The question was actually posted in a discussion about temporal image processing effects, so let’s start by making the distinction between the 2 clear. Temporal image processing effects are…
In a post 2 days ago we showed how to modify a MSG effect so that it’s coloring was derived from a custom color palette generated from a specific source image. The effect’s custom coloring is built into the resulting modified MSG preset. So if the source image is later changed, the effect’s coloring continues…
Today’s post will discuss how to work with creating photo mosaic effects based on movie brushes that contain a series of non-rectangular shapes or objects on flat colored backgrounds. The images above show how I created a movie brush effect using the actual shapes of the objects for the individual brush nibs, as opposed to…
We were recently asked how to take an existing MSG preset and impose the colors of the source image onto the MSG preset. I was able to do this by adding an extra processor to the end of the MSG preset’s processor chain, that colorizes image streams based on a custom color palette. I derived…
Today, we will show an alternative approach to automatically building up a bezier path sketch using image operation effects. The automatically generated bezier paths will then be painted in with vector paint, with the end goal of outputting a vector file of the finished sketch, which allows for resolution independent printing of the vector sketch…
