This post continues the discussion about using embedded bezier paths to generate keyframed animation that morphs between a series of stylized renditions of different source images. We will extend yesterday’s black and white sketch animation example by incorporating a second animating Bezier Context action step that encodes a morphing colored backing for the animation.
I quickly threw together a woodcut simulation effect for the recent discussion taking place on the Studio Artist User Forum concerning Lynn Ward’s woodcut stylings. It’s one example of some of the different woodcut effect variations I tried out. This image was generated by a custom paint action sequence (PASeq), and is based on a…
The following image is the end frame of a simple paint animation that paints in 2 bezier paths that spell out ‘Happy Holidays’ over a specific number of frames. Someone recently asked me how to build this kind of animation effect, so I quickly threw this simple example together, which we will explore in…
The following image is a still frame from a bezier path tween animation. A series of bezier path edge sketches were keyframed to build a morphing animation that transforms through a sequence of different still images of faces. The still image sketch output shown above was generated between 2 keyframes, so it’s a sketch…
This post continues our discussion yesterday about working with Path menu commands to generate bezier paths for painting. In yesterday’s post we used a series of path menu commands in a PASeq to build a stylized woodcut block print paint effect. Today we will show how to take the stylized source image outline paths…
