I had fun with some video processing today. I took a video of my youngest riding on the Boomerang at Elitch Gardens in Denver and converted part of it to a video painting. I used the Pixel Bender filter OilPainting on it.
In theory, I think I should have been able to load the video into Photoshop, converted it to a smart layer, and applied the filter to that. It didn't work right. Instead, I exported the video to a series of JPGs and then used the automation feature of Photoshop to apply the filter to each JPG. Once I finished with that, I loaded the frames into Premiere and played them sequentially.
The original video was recorded at 60fps, but I played back most of it at 30fps. It just didn't look right at full speed. The only part I left at full speed is when the coaster stops at the midpoint of the ride, just before reversing.
To make the audio sound intelligible, I brought it into Audition and doubled the duration while keeping the pitch the same. The ride noises sound weird, but it works much better than the sound did when it was slowed down but not pitch corrected.
The video is http://vimeo.com/26517218. To really see the effect well, you need to watch it full screen.
