Pencil Sketch Effect Tutorial (Turn Footage to Animated Drawing) - After Effects

Template Description:
This template includes eleven ready-to-go presets with which you can imitate a range of cartoon or drawing styles like colored pencil, charcoal, line drawings, doodles, rough sketches, photorealism and more. Each preset can be customized with easy-to-use slider controls to get the perfect look for your project.

Even After Effects beginners will be able to convert footage to a cartoon pencil drawing from their footage.

Looks interesting. The stop-motion addition
is simple but really helps selling the handdrawn look.

I'm loving it! Quick question though: I'm new at After Effects, does 2 hours of rendering for 15 seconds clip sound normal?

Hi again! The plugin has been wonderful. Still, I need some little help.
Curretly I´ve been using the colored pencil for both 2d and 3d animations. Now, I´m having some difficulties in 2D animations, where the line ends up vibrating too much, and also the colors way too distorted from the original intent. Is it possible to achieve the colored pencil, mostly in the texture sense more than changing the colors and line movement too much? Thanks in advance!

Dunno if you check this. I actually use adobe premiere a lot, how can i take a clip from premiere and export it to after effects to use this template? (say my premiere timeline has 100 clips on it, and I only want to convert one of those clips to this effect, is there a way to click the clip in premiere and *magic* it into after effects to use this template?)

Hi Noel. Great package but AE render is way long. 500+ hrs for an 8 minute H.264 on a CS6 platform. OSX and Ram are good, so I don't think it's the CPU. Any tips for a quicker export?

Hello there. Through my friend Gustavo I finally bought the plugin, which I found fascinating. Now I´m having a situation I´m trying to figure, and probably is quite simple. My footage in this case is an animation PNG sequence with transparent background. I´d like to place the colored pencil effect but I don´t know how to do it without losing the transparence. Would you please help me?

you probably get this question a lot: do you have to pay for this? I’m broke atm so if it isn’t free i’ll start saving up

Does this work on AE CS6? I´m VERY interested.
