VAN GOGH EFFECT
For Adobe After Effects
What is it?
The Van Gogh Effect for Adobe After Effects allows you to instantly turn your 4K footage into a realistic, animated painting - in a style that imitates master painter Vincent Van Gogh.
The Van Gogh Effect works equally well for both footage and images, and is completely customizable using convenient controls. Easily achieve the trademark swirls of the famous "Starry Night", or the wavy brush strokes of Van Gogh's self portraits. With authentic brush textures, custom paint strokes, and an unmistakable Van Gogh style, this effect will turn your ordinary footage into a post-impressionist masterpiece!
Create animated paintings in the style of
VINCENT VAN GOGH
Just drop in your HD or 4K footage or photo, and instantly generate one of two animated Van Gogh looks. Both options can be customized with controls to get the best look for your unique footage.
Even After Effects beginners will have no problem turning their footage to a post-impressionist painting!
The Van Gogh Effect was prominently displayed on the walls of the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam!
-
This template is compatible with Adobe After Effects, version CS5 and all later versions. Works in both Windows and macOS. No plugins required.
-
This template was upgraded and updated in 2018. The video tutorial was made prior to the update and some elements may look or work a little differently. Be sure to read the written instructions in the template - they are thorough and up-to-date.
-
The template includes both HD (1920x1080) and 4K (4096x2160) comps. The effects work great on photos, text, and graphics with transparent backgrounds, but it is not designed for exporting images at a higher resolution than 4096x2160.
-
The two Van Gogh Effect comps in this template are 10 and 15 frames per second, giving them the choppy stop-motion look seen in the demo video. The reduced frame rate also speeds up render times considerably. You can change their frame rates in the "Composition Settings" panel, or if you like the look of a reduced frame rate, but need to export at a higher rate like 29.97fps or 25fps, create a new comp with the higher frame rate, and place the Van Gogh Effect comp into that one.
-
Frame images, animated mattes, and alternate paint and canvas textures are included.
-
This template has been "universalized", so it will work in After Effects running in any language (CS6 and up).
The Van Gogh Effect template is not a plugin, so there is nothing to install. Rather, it's an Adobe After Effects project file, commonly known as a "template" because most of the work is already done and the user needs only to make their own customizations. This template is compatible with version CS5 as well as all later versions of After Effects.
