Oil transitions between two clips while creating the look of an oil painting.
Setup
Set the paint color properties and then set the smoothing and shading to define the painting style.
- Color Shift shifts the colors around the color wheel, for example so blues become greens and greens become yellows. This is useful to effect a subtle (or not so subtle) change in the color palette.
- Color adjusts the color richness, or saturation of the image. Turn this down to remove color; turn it up to enhance the colors.
- Brightness sets the over all light level of the image.
- Brush Size sets the size of the paint brush strokes. Turn it up for large, bold strokes. Turn it down for small, finely detailed strokes.
- Smoothing rounds the brush strokes into soft blobs instead of hard rectangles.
- Tempo sets the speed at which the effect changes the image. For a sudden change, set the Tempo high. For a gradual change, set it low.
- Attack controls how fast the transition move from start to full effect.
- Release controls how fast the transition moves from full effect to end.
- Cross Fade sets the percentage of the transition that includes a cross fade of the from one clip to the next. Turn down Cross Fade for an abrupt switch between images. Turn it up for a gradual mix.
