RE: FLASH: question about jonninitro

[Jim Antonopoulos :: Creative Access ::]

I LOVE the JonniNitro concept and i also think that it's design has a

wonderful feel to it...

I spent a few days working on a job that i felt needed a type f jonninitro

look about it and taught myself how to do that effect.

It may seem longwinded but it worked for me....


I actually had to capture some video - saved sections of it as .flm (film

strip) and imported that into photoshop.

Gettting a clean black and white effect could be done in two ways.... either

with kpt 5's 'smoothie' filter ... or adjust threshold in photoshop until it

smoothes out to a nice b&w look.


I did this to the entire film strip and exported back out and into premiere

where i saved it as an .avi..


easy.

Adobe Streamline is made for this.  Takes some learning, however. But it's

not very expensive. You can also use Photoshop to help Flash achieve this.

Play with Levels to get a high contrast, then convert to gray scale, then

to bit map. Export as gif, bitmap, or pict, and autotrace in Flash.
