Cartoon / hand drawn filter possible?

Hi motion graphics / illustration experts!


I am working on a project where I want to create a simple cartoon style effect in a piece of footage and wondered how would be the best way to create something like this (reference): Watch Bleacher Report UK vine "today 10 years ago, Liverpool were about to lose the FA Cup final until... #Gerrard '


I would like to hand-draw the sequences, but the only problem I have is that my client has more than 50 clips they want to create "convert" in the animated cartoon style shorts short line.
The film is a mix of action sequences, and nothing can be "re-shot" on green screens, etc., that there is no budget essentially (obviously).

What would advice everyone to approach such a project?

Is there any good custom or built in plugins in After Effects, which could help me to achieve this type of look?

Thanks in advance!

Robbie.

There is a variation of ToonIt included as part of the universe of the red giant, too, if I'm not mistaken.

After effects has a cartoon included also.

Whatever you use, you may need to change the settings to get the look that you're looking for and you may need to do some color correction effects quite involved in the cartoon effect to get the lines where you want MUCH. For example, if you get raccoon eyes, you may need to track movement of the eyes with a levels effect to brighten them so that the cartoon effect gives you the lines instead of black holes.

You can also duplicate your film, blurred at the top layer and give it to darken (or multiply, I forget which) and it will look a little pictorial.   Then you can add some edges to it with the find edges effect or a cartoon effect. I mean, you can't have steak on a hamburger budget, then they will have to make compromises.

Another alternative would be making your own cartoon with effects of Posterization effect, find the effects of edges, and stuff piled on each other with the adjustment of the colors below.

  • Effect of hand drawn

    Hello world

    Does anyone know if there is a plugin/extension for Photoshop nc6 that allows you to create an effect similar to hand drawn as the example attached?

    hand-drawn-sketch-of-a-lion-vector-987915.jpg

    I'd be surprised if you find a filter or a plugin that will do it automatically, because of the clever way that the strokes follow the appropriate angles.  You could certainly prepare the original image so as to make the easier to apply squiggles/hand-drawn lines, but it will go down to apply some drawing skills.

  • How to describe the hand drawn type made of multiple shots?

    I created a logo for a few friends of the family and the main part of the logo is drawn by hand, and it consists of several (a TON) of shots.

  • Troubleshooting of hand drawn Animation (image)

    I am after several tutorials for an effect of the end of a hand or writing tool that seems to draw a picture. I try to have the hand pull the image of first taking the photo and using an edge effect and followed it with the pen tool. However, I have a few problems with it so far, namely:

    1. I vectorize the image I want drawn using the edge effect. I copy the mask produced from tracing and then paste in the keyframe of the position of my hand computer. The problem here is that it masks the section of my hand.

    2 get the hand to follow the mask created on the image path. The alternative in the video tutorials for this type of effect often manually keframes the hand in position. I was hoping that the mask path by pasting in the hand position keyframes, it would automatically follow the drawing.

    Please see the image below as an illustration (click to enlarge), thanks for your time

    smileyface_comp2.jpg

    You paste the masks in the layer and not in the position of the layer property.  Make a first keyframe to the position, highlight and paste into the first mask; It will come in with a default duration of 2 seconds.  Go beyond the last keyframe pasted in, making an another position keyframe, highlight and paste in the following mask... and so on.

    Carefully consider the sequence in which you paste these masks.  And get ready for a large number of keyframes to get the timing right.

  • Simulating a hand-drawn illustration

    Hello! Does anyone have ideas how to simulate the following image drawn by hand with Illustrator brushes and fills?

    The situation would be... someone would create a new vector drawing (i.e., a reference to the photo) with outlines and fillings. With a few easy steps, it should be able to turn it into a vector drawing that looks like this style. It should be easy to do... maybe 2 or 3 as follows. It might also work with modules or plug-ins or something (should work with CS4 upward). Any ideas? Thank you very much for your help in advance!

    I don't know if there is a plugin to transform a fill in traits. I tried blends between paths with effect to scratch like a more automated to create a pattern of lines and then expanded their and manually hit the edges and inside with the tool eraser to make it look less uniform, but I don't like how it looks compared to manually make some designs freehand with the artistic brush (at the bottom of the image) who also took less than dealing with the approach of mixture. So, if it's me I would just do it by hand.

  • Which product in creative cloud is the cartoon above software?

    Can I ask nicely a piece of advice on what software to use in the Adobe suite to create cartoons, After Effects? Is there someone who could also guestimate any beach here learning curve would be great.

    Thank you

    Another Adobe software that you could use to make cartoons is Adobe Flash in conjunction with After Effects and Premiere Pro. It s a long trip, since you have to export your .mov files, but it works very well for me. It depends on the style you're looking for.

    It was created in Flash and ended up in Premiere Pro with hearing:

  • Where to buy 2nd hand mobo for Satellite A300 - 21H

    I hope that someone will be able to help.

    Where can I buy a hand 2nd if possible motherboard for my wife A300 21 H.

    The system isn't that 18 months old very annoying it took so little time.
    I had to check the installation, and they think that it is the motherboard.

    I was quoted £300 + to fix the laptop isn't worth paying this amount thus thought, I would have a go at repairing myself.

    That s right.

    New motherboards are very high, much more in the event that it s not worth buying the new mobo.
    I would recommend a few internet auctions to pages (ebay, etc) to get a 2nd hand mother.

    Maybe you could get a 2nd hand A300 unit where the card mother does not malfunction

  • Is it possible to change the opacity of the brush?

    Let me explain.

    I just got creative cloud for a project I'm doing. Keep in mind that we are on a budget relatively tight-it is a school project, but I'm not even in high school yet. Therefore other alternatives are out - I change NOT programs.

    Well, I animate (or at least I'll learn to) in the style of hand-drawn animation. I don't like the way the computer moves the forms for me with interpolations. My main problem is with messy frames sketch - I can't do very well with the pen tool. Here is an example I did in Paint Tool SAI:

    stupid flash.png

    It's the difference between the use of pencil and pen-and-pencil PEN left, to the right. Even if it looks pretty good, it is hard to do and is not good. That would make things MUCH better, it's, as I was told somewhere, I was able to calm down the opacity of the brush. In this way, I could sketch as I do with the tool marker on SAI and it would be just as good. I use the latest version of Flash. Please help me! UNU

    Select the fill color, and then type the alpha level to use.

  • Why is it not possible to assign a keyboard shortcut to onion skinning? (Allowing you to alternate power)

    In Flash CS6 in the animation frame by frame by hand, I am constantly toggle onion on and outside, and even with the 'loop' just next button for a certain range of pictures. None of them seems to be assignable to a keyboard shortcut, which means I have to take the mouse/pen drawing and press these buttons several times per minute, really put a damper on the workflow.

    We put the question of the next update? This seems obvious, especially for a program that many people use for the hand-drawn animation projects.

    Onion skin, wide loop, etc., can now be set in the keyboard shortcuts window. A very recent addition is that once you have defined a key, the key you used shows also at the forefront of aid.

    I don't know which key makes sense right! As I'm on Mac I used ctrl-O and ctrl-L. Not that I have to toggle them too often.

  • Is it possible to draw a line under a clip?

    It's

    OS X

    Prime Minister & Photoshop Elements 9

    I want to create a line with arrowhead point out something in a clip. My preference is to have the line appear as if it were being developed, where he could be a wipe.

    I see at least one method of adding a line. Take a frame and add the line in Photoshop E, then insert the image in the sequence of the clip.

    However, I don't see if there is a way to make the dynamic line as described above. As an example of sports commentators way shoot a game to indicate the tactics that are currently running.

    My question: is there a way to accomplish a "dynamically appearing line" with pre and PE?

    Thank you

    Probably the best way to do it is to create 'line' and 'Flash' in the title. Then animate the crop effect to reveal over time, from the beginning of the line, until all is revealed. We can give the line a little more than a glance "hand drawn" by like a line on a trail with some "wiggles". [I think that before this, and you will want to choose a Style w / a stroke.] Then you can remove all attributes, as the filling, which are not necessary, but you have that Style first do a stroke].

    Personally, I create the title in Photoshop and use my Wacom to draw the line, to get the wiggles hand drawn. The resultant THAT PSD is imported in the meadow and the same animation of the cropping effect would be used.

    Good luck

  • Operating instructions for the flying Cubes?

    Hi, can someone give advice on how / where a tutorial is for the next idea?

    I would like to create cubes 3D (possibly with a hand-drawn aesthetic) flying in a group. The idea is that the Group of cubes swoop and flies like a bird.

    Is it possible in After Effects or is it more a cinema 4 d / 3Ds MAX project type?

    Thank you!

    You can create cubes in AE using 6 squares 3D solid or shape layers, parent layers for a 3D no and then fly the autour null in a 3D space. You can also create cubes and add textures in C4D lite, do driving around the animation in the 3D application. If you want to add the swarming of behavior like a flock of birds using certain automatic behaviors and you are on a budget, then using a 3D opensource as Blender (http://www.blender.org) application will give you a bunch of tools. I think you want to make a single object of that kind of looks like a bird with a bunch of cubes, some for wings and maybe a few others for the body, and then to rig the cubes on 'bones' so that you can create wings will require complete application 3D as Blender or the version of complete C4D because C4D lite has a very limited tool set. All 3D approach will require some textures or tweaking or plug-ins to simulate hand-drawn effect.

    If you want a look designed to hand and you have some rudiments of drawing and want to learn the technique of cell animation then you can hand draw cells in Illustrator or Photoshop or same æ and then doing 2D animation there. There are a few software solutions to make animations drawn by hand, including Flash Professional (which is provided with a subscription to the CC), but there is no open source apps I know dedicated to hand-drawn animation techniques. Commercial applications run from a few dollars to a few thousand. Good technique depends on your skills and your experience, the time available yo got work on the project and what you want the project looks like when it's done.

    The best way to make a cube from 3D layers must compensate for the z value of the anchor of the same value as X and Y, then rotate the multiple faces of 90 ° 5. For example, suppose you want a cube that is 600 pixels high. Here is a step by step.

    1. Create a new publication using the settings of composition standard square pixels (HDTV 1080 29.97 for example) which is quite long to include the entire shot, you try to create
    2. Select the rectangle tool
    3. Select the fill and stroke to use
    4. While holding down the SHIFT key to draw a shape of rectangle anywhere in the model
    5. Press U twice to reveal all the modified properties of the rectangle
    6. You should see something like this:
    7. Set the size of the Rectangle traced 1 to 600, 600
    8. Reset the position to transform Rectangle 1 0.0 to center the rectangle in the composition Panel
    9. Click the Add button to the right of the shape 1 layer content and add paths to squirm and make some adjustments to give your cube glimpses caught something like this:

  • Press the a button to reveal the anchor point of the shape layer
  • Make the layer 3D shape
  • The anchor point must be 0,0,0 (Note: If you use a solid 600 X 600 300, 300, 0 is the anchor point)
  • 1-way Rectangle as 600, 600, that you'll want to set the z value for the anchor point to the half of the width of the rectangle then adjust the anchor of layer 0, 0, 300
  • Duplicate the layer of the form 5 times
  • Select all 5 layers and press the r key to reveal the orientation and rotation of each layer property
  • Let the shape 1 layer to the default rotation value
  • Rotation 90 ° 2 layer shape in there, 180º 3 shape layer in there, 270º 4 shape layer in there, shape layer 5 90º in x, and 270 ° 6 layer x shape so watch the layers like this:

  • Add a null value to the composition and make 3D null and name Cube 1
  • The value null is now at the center of the global space of composition and 6 layers as a group are arranged around the null value
  • Make sure that the Parent column turns in the time line (make it visible by right-clicking in the column name bar)
  • Press r or u close the layer properties, and then select all shape layers and set the parent to 1 Cube and then lock the shape layers, so your timeline looks like this:
  • Now, you can animate the position and rotation and adjust the scale of the null value to control your cube. Add a 3D camera and have fun.
    v
  • To set up a herd of these cubes or build a body unlock all layers and start duplicating. [The best way to do that is to select all six shape layers, press Ctrl/Cmnd + d then Ctrl/Cmnd +] to move duplicates to the top and repeat. When you have made all the copies that you want to lock the camera layer, press Ctrl/Cmnd + a to select all layers, hold down Ctrl/Cmnd key and select all the controllers of null and shy then all layers form like this:
  • Click the shy skin layers third icon from the left at the top) and you have only your cube controllers to animate. Now, you can size, scale parent animated and even these together to create your bird like this:
  • This should give you an idea of the creation of a bird in flight in AE. Personally, I would probably use Blender or the full version of C4D, then import the project into AE to the final composition. Mixer has some large shader effects drawn by hand and it is much more easy to rig and animate an element like a bird.
