Stylizing Timelines

Graphic Pen






Full Colour Poster Edges


Grey scale with poster edges



-50% Desaturation of colour with poster edges






Maya standard 3D





I have spent this afternoon investigating and comparing some graphical styles using photo shop filter to find the atheistic for the timeline world with suggestions from Phil in mind. When comparing the images side by side, -50%desatutrated image style feels more natural for this piece, the saturation could possibly be pushed further, and the shadows cast (particually across the sails) need to have a more sublte edging, with more experimenting needed, solutions should hopefully be found. However, the effect of the poter edges in photoshop does give the same effect in after effects. This is a problem to look into.

  1. I like the graphic pen aesthetic - because it creates elegance and a strength of shape - but be wary of using After Effects, because it can 'flatten' and 'submerge' animation - you should also investigate ways of texturing that create similar qualities - no doubt you're already doing this, but just for the record...
