HDV:What You NEED to Know
|
This effect uses two video tracks containing the same
video events, which are composited together in a parent / child relationship
using a Bump Map with near maximum Intensity and Bump Height. Here are the
step-by-step instructions: Step 1: Select the event you want to make a pencil sketch Step 2: Add a Black & White Video FX to the event and select the 100% Black and White preset Step 3: Duplicate the video by copying it to the track above it. Step 4: Enable the Make Compositing Parent relationship between the two video tracks Step 5: Change the Parent Overlay Mode of the upper track to Custom and select Bump Map. Step 6: In the Bump Map dialog, increase the Intensity and Bump Height to close to maximum (depending on the image). Fine-tune these settings for the effect you want. This should give you a pretty convincing pencil sketch look. For extra bonus points add a Brightness and Contrast filter after the Black and White filter and you can really control the amount of detail that's left in the Bumped image. You can get it down to just outlines if you'd like. If you don't use the Back and White filter it will look more like a pastel painting.
In these before and after shots you can see how you can bring out a nice textured effect as if a pencil was used on parchment paper. Those two handsome people are my Mother and my beloved Father dancing at my wedding. Man, they loved to dance! Happy Editing, John |
