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

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.

  • Tips for creating hand-drawn animations

    Dear all

    I want to produce animations with a hand drawn feel. What is the best way to go about this?

  • 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.

  • Why can I not use an animated image on my Vista desktop as I have with XP?

    I can't use an animated image on my desktop that I could when I used Windows XP, why is that now that I'm using Windows Vista Ultimate?  I can use the screensavers, funds, all individuals in the animation, just can't use a single image.

    I miss this feature!  Is it really impossible now that I'm on a Vista computer?

    Again, david, I appreciate your response and your help.  No prob with what I am wanting to misunderstandings.  :)

    I understand what you're saying as the "work-around", it's just too much work to replace a little simple animation, LOL

    Does anyone know why a big animated image of 4 square (as shown in the image below) appears in a sensitive HTML output? Is it because I am using a trial version?

    The image below shows the result after I imported a Word file into a trial version of RoboHelp 2015 and then sent to a sensitive HTML file.

  • 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!

    mockup.jpg

    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.

  • Animated images in place when loading new QML file

    I noticed that when I insert new QML files, the images Animate into place.

    For example, if the screen contains an image at the position X, Y, and width W and height H, then the image becomes visible at the point of coordinates 0,0-0 width and height 0 and anime then in place by flying over to the X, Y coordinates and more in addition to being finally width W and height H.

    If I then click on the 'Back' button and enter this QML screen a second time, it does not animate.

    This implicit animation is intended?  While the implicit animations are pretty amazing and a great tool to have, it seems intuitive to the use of screens animations implicit when they are first loaded. It creates a rather unpleasant company and Visual distraction when loading screen.

    I thought that I could disable it by adding the following to the ImageView controls:

                    attachedObjects: [
                        ImplicitAnimationController {
                            enabled: false
                        }
                    ]
    

    ... but they are always animate.

    Thank you

  • Doubt animation image

    Hello

    I need to use the animation on some images in my screen. It's like, I have about 4 images on one another on my home screen.  I need to show a fade in/out animation on the images. I went through the tutorial animation. My code goes here

    ImageView {
                    imageSource: "asset:///images/slide768x464.png"
                    id: slide1
    
                        animations: [
                            FadeTransition {
                                id: animation

                            }
                        ]
    
                    }
                ImageView {

                            FadeTransition {
                                id: animation2
                                fromOpacity: 0
                                toOpacity: 1
                                delay: 0
                                duration: 3000
                                easingCurve: StockCurve.QuadraticInOut
                                repeatCount: 50
    
                            }
                        ]
    
                    }
    
    onCreationCompleted: {
            animation2.play();
            animation2.play()
    }
    

    But now two animations happen together, I want my first image to be eliminated then the following to come. In addition, the repeated count can be set to 'Forever '?  I could see that only a few precise values are allowed for this. I need to show the animation always.

    Could someone...

    Have 'Animation1"game onCreationCompleted. Then get a signal inside this animation called onEnded: {} to play "Animation2. Inside of 'Animation2' have the same signal onEnded play 'Animation1' to create an infinite loop of their reading.

  • 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.

  • Animated image affected by a mask

    I am trying to mask an image in Adobe Premiere so that it becomes transparent and you can see only a square of it.

    What I did: I placed a background image on the video track 1, front image on the video track 2, and I imported a mask image on the video track 3.

    Then I applied the effect 'Matt track touch' to the image before (track 2) and chose the image of the mask as a cache in the options of controlling effects.

    My problem: I want to change the position and scale of the before image along the timeline with the mask in the same position and scale, in order to simulate a moving inside a square image and showing around the background image; but when I try to zoom in or move the image before the masking moves also, ruining the effect.

    Question: Is possible to produce a masking in a way that, when changing the position or scale of the affected image (image before on track 2), masking area will remain in the same position of the display and the scale as in the original? How to do this?

    Thank you

    The animation may not be in the same timeline, it has be nested:

    first animate.

    then the nest.

    and finally add the mask to the sequence embedded in the main timeline.

    in this order, it should work.
