Morphing in Studio Artist


These movies are made by painting single images in Studio Artist and/or Painter, and then morphing them with Studio Artist's powerful "Morphing" features. This is opening many new avenues in my work, it helps do away with the tedious frame by frame drawing of "in between" images, something I have never liked doing (too mechanical).

Please keep in mind the fact that these movies are only sketches, nothing more.


New "movies" are posted regularly.

As time goes by, I am discovering new processes in Studio Artist which, combined with editing in Final Cut Pro HD, make working well worth getting up in the morning for.
The latest is called PaintActionSequence Sequential Keyframing .

These last three pieces are done that way.

April 4 , 2009.

Here are newer clips, much has happened since the works above were posted.
My focus seems to be more and more on "Visual Music" (see my article on the Boston Visual Music Marathon published by AWN here).

Two films, "Liaisons" and "Rupture" were made with/for the National Film Board of Canada, with composer Jean Derome

Two films were also made with composer Michaela Eremiasova, "Shade Lost" and "Shade recovered" (more on the way), with the amazing Eastman Triana trio.

O
ne film was made with composer Wilfried Jentzsch ("Mugenkei"), and several other pieces are in progress (as with "La Folia" done with the magnificent Quadro Janas ensemble).

Most of the recent pieces have a dual existence: they are "films," and they are also silent videos presented as visual support/"argument" of live concerts.

I am also increasingly getting involved with live performances, improvising visuals alongside improvising musicians (see Pierre Hébert's report on such an event here).

I hope to be able to integrate the two approaches, studio and performance, into a combined process that will yield new films.
