pretty much the same as the last post but with added depth of field and motion blur… I think it looks a lot better…

Another R Mutt experiment… again…

00306

Yet more animation in the line shader and then turbulent displacement in AE to make the background drawing look animated. I’ve then added a matching displacement on the character to mess with the outer edge of the ink line because noise driving the line width varies the width from the outer edge of the model inwards but renders the outer edge as the smoothed outline of the model.
As before the Drawing is by Shaun Belcher also known as Moogee the art dog and this set of experiments are for a paper presentation that Shaun will be doing in New York later this year.

Yet another R Mutt / Shaun Belcher experimental render…

A little more complex shader… feeding 2 levels of coloured noise into the smoke that I’m using for the line colour, whilst driving the ink width with noise as well, this removes the need to add the colour in After Effects, motion blur replaces some of the gaussian blur in After Effects too…
