This tip discusses how to automate the generation of encapsulated bezier paint animation. This is done by constructing a PASeq that generates the desired bezier paths. This PASeq is then automatically run multiple times for a series of recored source context keyframes to generate a bezier context. The bezier context is then automatically converted into…
This tip discusses how to create a keyframed paint animation from a series of freely sketched pencil sketches. Each sketch can have an arbitrary number of pencil strokes. Each sketch is encapsulated into a single paint action step recorded in a Paint Action Sequence (PASeq). The final animation is generated by animating the keyframed single…
This tutorial tip will discuss how to select an area of the canvas in Selection Mode. Once you have selected an area of the canvas you can then use your selection or it’s inversion as a mask. There are a number of different ways you can select portions of the canvas. Selection is performed while…
Directed evolution is a powerful technique that can be used to create an infinite variety of new abstract procedural art images or image and video processing effects. The Evolution Editor palette shown above is where you can perform directed evolution of MSG presets. Each of the 16 small images in the Evolution Editor is a…
There are several Sketch image operations (ip ops) in Studio Artis. These sketch ops are sophisticated processing effects that can be used separately or together to build a wide range of different black and white sketch effects. The Sketch ip ops can either be used to directly create raster or vector sketch effects or to generate bezier paths that…
