Today’s post describes how to build a simple crisp pencil sketch effect. The effect is painted in with 2 applications of a paint synthesizer vector paint preset that renders a smooth thin gray vector paint stroke. Rather than using the paint synthesizer’s auto-paint features, a set of bezier paths that represent the sketch strokes are…
Yesterday we used the Watershed Sketch image operation effect to build a stylized color sketch effect. Today we’ll continue where we left off with yesterday’s discussion, by using the Watershed Sketch effect to drive the paint synthesizer for painting in a more visually complex sketch effect (based on the same 2 Watershed Sketch presets we…
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.
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…
