I have been messing around with creating “painterly” look for a still image and came up with this one.
It is created through a combination of Photoshop’s Artistic Brush tool, After Effect’s Twixtor and a whole bunch of loops and nested comps to get the whole thing as smooth as possible.
As an unexpected side effect I also figured out how to make pretty convincing fake hand-drawn text in AE.
