TOON SHADING and STILL PICTURES

For the advanced users:

I placed a still picture which was vertical into CB PAINT. I used the MAGIC WAND tool to highlight the black borders.

After DELETING the two black borders located on each side of the still picture, I introduced a background from the PATTERNS GENERATOR located on the toolbar to the second (bottom) layer.

I then located the TOON SHADING in the FX stack and applied that setting to the actual picture in LAYER#1.



The effect is stunning. It gives a flat picture excellent depth!!!


If you want to get fancy, use your MOTION>KEYFRAMER and ROTATE the above picture from small to NORMAL so as to SPIN into the scene with the TOON EFFECT visible.

Lou, I think Roger was implying "post the picture so we can see it"

The below is a jpeg of the scene with Toon Shading with a CB PAINT background. The scene was rotating into the screen. Notice the roundness of the picture.
The jaggies are from the frame capture.
