    Posted by Donna Li on February 1, 2012 at 4:49 am

    Halo everything,

    I would like to know how to make the effect in 04-05sec of the following video.

    https://vimeo.com/17707515

    The smoke(?) fade in on the face,
    the smoke is very smooth and like real painting stroke! (the shape of the stroke is very clear for every movement cause I think could I use the opacity to make it, but seems not that simple lol…. ) how to make it??

    Please kindly tell me if you know it 🙂 thanks so much!

    That effect is so quick in your sample it is hard to see what it is. Take a look at this TV show open:

    Is this what you are after? Where it looks like the images comes on from paint or smoke?
