| Hi, Sorry for being a bit dim but are you shooting real-life elements that you want to make look water coloury? Or are you shooting genuine watercolours? I have a watercolour-style transition on my website: http://chriszwar.com/wordpress/2009/02/watercolour-wipe-revised-updated/ I made it so long ago it would take me a few minutes to decipher it, but the basic approach was to have a few layers distorted with vector blur, and then texturise the whole lot so it feels as though the image is part of the paper, and not just stuck on top with a blending mode. Have a play with vector blur that uses slowly animating fractal noise as the source. Is that what you're after? -Chris -----Original Message----- From: scott.aelist [mailto:scott.aelist@gmail.com] Sent: Friday, August 17, 2012 11:53 AM To: 'After Effects Mail List' Subject: [AE] [OT]: tips for shooting watercolor elements? we have to shoot some elements for a watercolory-looking spot. I imagine I'll be using a bunch of stills and scanned textures, but it would be nice to get some footage as well. Does anyone have any tips on how to get the ink to 'move.' I remember trying this myself in the past, and i couldn't really get the ink to do much of anything. |
