Read more…Is anybody making a copy of all the material in the Tutorials Forum
Since the Forum is going away in June, has anyone started to make a copy of all the stuff in the Tutorials forum?I've made copies of some of the tutorial material on the main site, but haven't looked at the Tutorial Forum yet.I'm going to continue copying as much as I can for my own personal use anyway, but if anyone else is doing it, or has already started doing it, please let me know.Maybe we can co-ordinate our efforts. ps can't ..... believe John, would let this happen without so much as a…
Read more…Studio Artist is in Italy!
I was crawling the streets of Matera, Italy today and may have discovered where SA is hiding! (see attached photo). Not meaning to make light of this great, sad mystery. But I just couldn't resist as I try to make sense of what's happening. Losing my connection to SA, Synthetik and John has been a great sadness... and if real, ends a monumental era in my creative life. love,~Victor

The post and discussion on this process is invaluable. And you've given us some neat stuff here to play with and to de- and reconstruct.
One question though. You outlined the way to colorize the movie frames relative to the source colors, but in choosing your images to go into the movie [brush] do you usually try to get an assortment of images that range light to dark, or does it seem to matter much? Some of the edge definition of your subject that you've gotten recently really [to my eye] is keeping the subject accessible without drowning it in the technique, and this to my way of thinking is a good thing. My own attempts at movie brush/mosaic paintings have been unsatisfying because of that problem and I think you've shed some very helpful light on how to get beyond that [problem]. Tanks again.
You could do something like an adaptive block regionize and then pile on top some additional regions using normal path start sampling and the 'grow region from start point' path shape and the region as brush pen mode. Or a second path start regionize pass with Paint Fill Apply Nib Masking set to local image range to get more edge definition.
Another thing i've been doing recently is adding a vectorized black outline with 40-60% transparency. You can use the outline vectorizer technique, or you can generate an edge outline with some other technique and then vectorize that.
And as i mentioned in the recent paint strategy news blog post, i have various finishing techniques i always use to fine tune images before saving.
I am in the process of exploring them.
Didn't work for version 4 ?
I import brushmov, then not appear and so PASeq and preset
Just worked for me fine using SA 4.06 on a mac. When you download brickMovieBrushEx.zip file, after decompressing the zip file you get a brickMoviebrushEx folder, containing the movie, a paseq, and several paint presets. the paint presets and the paseq preset all work for me, i just ran them.
The mac's idiot gatekeeper security barks a stupid warning message when you try to open them on recent versions of osx, but you can manually override that by going to the Security panel in the main mac System Preferences and hitting the button that says open them anyway.
Are you on windows by any chance? Maybe an issue with the mac zip compression not decompressing properly on your windows system. We have seen that before.
