  animating vector art

  Posted by Accountclosedduetonorealnameused on August 3, 2007 at 8:01 pm

  I am looking into an easy way to animate on floral vector art.

  The look is pretty common these days: pretty floral vector art, vines and leaves, that “grow” on and flourishes.

  trouble is, the only way I know how to execute such an animation is by hand, masking on the image manually, WAY too time consuming.

  Perhaps there is a better way?
  Maybe software that can create this? a plugin?
  I seem to remember a while back some Maya plugin for AE that did something like this.

  any suggestions are appreciated.

  There is an excellent tutorial right here on the Cow covering that very topic:

  I should warn you – nothing good comes easy. This effect does require patience, time and the willingness to do a lot of manual tinkering. No real way around that.
