    Anyone know of a way 2 get that hot new 2D animated look for video footage without exporting frames to Illustrator?

    I need it for an opening to a TV pilot.

    Thanks!

    I’ve worked a lot with Illustrator and – maybe it’s me, who knows – but I just can’t understand what you mean by “getting that hot new 2D animated look for video footage“.

    (Won’t kill you to write “to” instead of “2”.)

    Don’t understand your question. I’m working with a series with rigging photoshop characters/animals out of stills. Look at the tutorial on animating a walk cycle, but don’t look at it for the walk cycle, look at it for the RIGGING/animation aspect.

    “getting that hot new 2D animated look for video footage”?????????

    can we compare it to anything? its ENTIRELY to open ended of a question.
    also, look into MOHO — i haven’t had the time to really work with it, but some examples are AMAZING

    I’m going to assume you’re talking about the look used in the upcoming film “A Scanner Darkly.” If that is the case, there is no simple filter that will do it. What you need is a very patient and talented rotoscoping artist.

    The film uses a proprietary software application called “Rotoshop,” and was first used in the movie “Waking Life.” You can find out more about Rotoshop at the website of the man who developed it: https://www.flatblackfilms.com/Rotoshop.html
