Video: Arthur Rackham 2d images animated
A little video I put together using scanned Arthur Rackham prints, separated and animated. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EBVz5TjcMog It's only 37 seconds long. My first try with AfterEffects puppet tool. Please enlarge to fit screen. Dec 16 13 12:08 am Link C h a r l e s D wrote: I didn't know you could do that in AE. That's the kinda thing you want to watch sober LOL, thanks for sharing. Dec 16 13 10:57 am Link One of my favorite artists . . . who's next, Beardsley, Maxfield Parrish, Dulac, Bradley . . .  Nicely done . . . SOS Dec 17 13 08:43 am Link Thanks guys. I was going to continue with Rackham first, 'cause I collect first edition Rackham illustrated books and have tons to pick from. I'd rather like to do some line sketch animations from the really, really old children's books.

Dec 17 13 10:57 am Link I sure love those old children's books. I've got about a sixty different versions throughout the ages by different publishers of Grimm's Fairy Tales. The older the story is, the darker it is. More violent, scary, cruel, and dark. Through the years, they pussified them considerably for today's wimpy children. I did buy two Rackham illustrated Grimm's books for $50.00, but they're totally thrashed. I'm happy to have them, because the illustrations are fine, and they're what I'm really after. The stories are right in the middle of the dark to fun changeover. Dec 17 13 11:12 am Link |
