Ink Splatter

[Michael Szalapski]

Some film ink. Some use a graphics program. It depends on the effect you’re going for.

white paper, chuck ink on it whilst filming it – adjust the levels of the footage and multiply over 🙂 much nicer than an animation of it

[Neil Young]

if ya haven’t chucked ink on paper, then don’t recommend it because properties don’t behave the way you think they might.

Ugh – I hate that style. Why copy other people’s styles? Be more creative. I first saw graphics in this form from a hack out of L.A. a couple of years back and hated it then. Then it started running rampant on web graphics on underground sites. Now I’m seeing it in mainstream advertising and on TV and wondering why people aren’t taught to do something different. At least try to improve on the theme. I can just see the porn industry jumping (no pun intended) on this style next (if they haven’t already – I wouldn’t know) and change it from paint to something else. Just my two cents.

I like to make ink trails come off my 3D strokes.

[Kevin Snyder]

That’s exactly what I wnat to do. What method do you use spockedit?

[Spockedit]

well if you want to do it I would suggest actually drawing each little trail of ink dribbling off the 3d stroke using mask on a black layer. I think thats the best way. You could also try using one of the distort filter that lets you sort animate the liquify brush. You’ll have to precomp the layer your 3d stroke is on. Good luck.
