Is there any technique for generate stencil?

For making paper cut (katagami) and stencil we need vector regions with bridges on all the island, minimal parts generated with single connected objects to each other that can cut without loosing the quality, Do you know any preset in SA or any other software for helping?

  • If there is no any vector do you know any bitmap version?

  • You can use masking in Studio Artist to create stencil effects within Studio Artist. Do you just want to mask visual effects? Or do you want to generate a vector stencil image that you are using externally? Or?//

    If you explain in more detail what you are trying to do, i can comment further.

    • I want to cut it by cutter plotter and spray on wall

      • I know there are Studio Artist users who have run laser cutters and other external plotters off of Studio Artist generated output. Using either eps or svg vector files generated by Studio Artist to run the external cutters. You should do some searching on the user forum, because i think it has been discussed here a little bit.

        I'll look through my email records. I had a discussion about this with a user, and might be able to provide a little bit more specific information about how he was doing it.

        If you wanted to go the bitmap approach, i guess i'd suggest researching how commercial stencil printers approach generating a stencil off of a design image. I think they use light sensitive photo resist.

    I hope you can find a method with curent version.

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

Teenage Tongue Cult

Hi, here is the video I made back in 2010 for my song "Teenage Tongue Cult". I finally found my master folder of image sequence files for it on one of my old hard drives, and since the version I had on my Vimeo was of pretty terrible pixelated low quality visually, I re-did it yesterday. It has extensive use of Studio Artist through the whole thing. I made it by first animating the characters and scenes in Flash, against a mostly kind of muddy green background, a color I knew wasn't being used…
