Video Pencil Script
Video Pencil Script for purchase, or you can download the Free Evaluation script. This script batch processes a folder of JPG images and saves them into another specified folder. It produces a similar effect to the Video Pencil for Images, but streamlines the process for converting the hundreds of images which make up a video sequence. When you have a folder of images, our Photoshop script will batch convert the entire folder. This batch script is designed for use with video frames and as such converts the folder of images to 72 DPI. Image sequences must be in JPG format
The inspiration for this effect came from one of the greatest music videos of its time, A-Ha's 'Take on Me' from the 80's. It was made through the process of rotoscoping. This process takes live action (video), and going frame by frame, traces over the images with some artistic effect to give moving objects a more animated feel and look to them. About 2005 this technique was used in a series of Chuck Schwab commercials. They used a color vectorized effect, but for me, the pencil drawing style of A-Ha's video was the call to action, or Script in this case. Rotoscoping hundreds of frames is not the answer - A script was developed to simulate a pencil texture that would closely contour the image, but at the same time create a variance over the course of frames that would mimic the human impreciseness of multi-frame rotoscoped drawings.
This Art Script effect works on a wide variety of visuals generated from a sequence of video frames and creates a simple pencil effect that is rougher than our Fine Pencil Script. It also creates a higher contrast tone for more separation from backgrounds.

This script is also very usefull for making visual storyboards from different types of photography and clip art, making them visually a seemless and more detailed display. This result can also be achieved with our Video Pencil effect for images. However this script provides a batch processing method for images that is convenient for video image sequences. Here is an example used on CONAIR for Men®'s iStubble Men's Grooming commercial.

With a little imagination, the CONAIR commercial was inverted and used with a screen mode in Final Cut to achieve a moving background effect for animation.
Soon Pencil Pixels will have more batch processing scripts for video use. In the meantime, you can always use our Script effects within your own batch file processing.
