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…

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…

Today’s post will continue our discussion of different approaches one can use to generate vector file output from Studio Artist. Over the last few days we’ve talked about using the vectorizer to output vector art, and 2 different approaches to working with the paint synthesizer to generate vector painting and associated vector file output. Today…
