Import preset

Hi Mr. Dalton and all of the community.

Is there the possibility to import a preset make from another user?

I mean. I wanna make an effect like these two videos:

https://vimeo.com/14867772

https://vimeo.com/groups/synthetikstudioartist/videos/111775003

I know they are different effects. I like both.

I just wanna know is someone could make a preset for this kind of animations and then send me the preset so i could use it in my video project. Because I really can't reach out this levels of perfection and I feel kind of frustrated.

  • Hi Dan... I tried to upload a file earlier for you... this should do it... see attached

    Tho, as I mentioned earlier, "The key to this animation is not so much the preset I used... but that I hand drew the paint paths as keyframes along the entire duration of the source movie.  I use sequential key framing and, created keyframed paths that aligned with the various shapes in the source movie."

  • here is a tutorial about sequential key framing  that might help: http://www.synthetik.com/tips/2010/07/sequential-keyframe-recording/

    • First of all thank for your answer!

      Well, I'm tryng to do some test but i can't have a decent result.

      I upload the preset you send me. Then i do some draw with the "pen" mode. But the final result is an undefinied mess. Of course i am doing a lot of mistake. Actually i'm not really able to follow the tutorial. My english is bad. I mean: i understand the main part of the concept but when i try to do something i fail. Maybe a video tutorial will be helpful but i know that is hard to make one. So i will test around untill i found a solution :)

      • I understand. The main thing to understand is that my work uses Studio Artist's amazing tools... but almost none of it happens in an automatic "plug-in" sort of way. Typically it either involves manual drawing, using a tablet and pen... or it involves "paint action sequences" with multiple drawing and image operation steps... almost always custom designed for the particular source video's is, complexity and motion. I have been suit Studio Artist for about 15 years. I can honestly say that I spent the first year experimenting in 1000 directions until I began to get a sense of what tools SA had that excited me. I still am learning more each day.  Be patient and have fun.  I always thought of SA as a wild horse that takes me places I can't imagine.

        • Yeah Victor, I like your words :)

          I will test around untill I will do something extraordinary! :)

Interdimensional Coincidence Control

Hi everyone, I am glad the site is still here! Here is a new short video I made. All made in Studio Artist, several separate videos with alpha channels, then combined in layers with the music in Blender. A lot of MSG running through brushes, with several of the brush Path Starts being controlled by the MSG Scan Generator in the Generator part of the Path Start in the Paint Synthesizer. Also some MSG running through a brush, then making a video of that with an alpha channel, then making that a…

Whats going on with this site?

Has anyone else gotten a warning about this site disappearing? An email form just popped up, asking me to contract the owner and leave a message to let them know that they may loose their "network"Did Synthetik forget to pay it's bills, or is something else going on?I think 8 months is more than enough vacation time. Is anyone at Synthetik doing any development work at all?

Having difficulty exporting canvas as image

I'd like to export a canvas as a .tiff/.tif image file to a folder I made on my desktop.I select that from a dropdown menu, I can name the exported file, change the extension, etc, and I press save but nothing happens.It's always worked until now. It seems like a simple task. Any ideas?I'm on Mac OSX 12.6, if that matters, and my system hasn't changed since the last time I was able to export successfully.Thanks
