  • build an image up in strips

    Posted by Jake Martin on May 19, 2012 at 5:04 pm

    Hi

    I am trying to replicate a tapestry being woven onto the screen so that the image builds up in thin strips. I haven’t got my head round expressions so I was going do this by animating a few hundred masks but does anyone know an easier way to do this

    Thanks in advance

    Jake

    Not sure this would help but there is a “old tv” effect that allows you to control a “venetian blind” effect that might be useful. It slices an image into horizontal layers like an old tv.

    You could try a combination of Venetian Blinds, masking and maybe Card Dance.
