Someone recently asked about how to generate a progressive wet melt effect applied to a movie file. So that as the processed movie plays, the wet melt effect applied to the movie gets progressively more extreme over time. This is actually pretty easy to achieve in Studio Artist, by key-framing your wet melt effect over…
In yesterday’s post we discussed how to build a simulation of pouring paint, based on hand editing an older Wacom pen tilt sensitive air brush preset. In that post, we mentioned that you could do additional hand editing in the paint synthesizer to build various kinds of wet paint effects to add additional complexity into…
Someone recently asked me for some advice on programming the paint synthesizer to emulate paint pouring out of a hose, where the user could control the direction of the flow. And i’m assuming there’s some form of gravitational force associated with the paint movement as well. We’ll take a look at one approach to doing…
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…
