Corel painter 2020 animation12/30/2023 Apart from the fact that the Adobe interface is intuitive and easy to navigate, one can work on layers in Photoshop as well as view the timeline in frames at the bottom of the screen. However the studio artists, when given a choice between using Painter and Adobe Photoshop for the painted animation, chose Photoshop for its easy interface. I painted one frame in every shot of the film - all the characters and their lighting - and this was followed by the team, frame by frame. I do not paint backgrounds myself but I do paint the characters. On Bombay Rose, I used the software to make the entire animatic as well as key colored frames. Unlike paint on glass, here you could go back and put in-betweens or delete extra frames. I used it to paint progressively frame by frame. The only limitation was (and still is) that you cannot maintain your layers as FRM files - they have to be flattened into a single layer.Ĭoming from the times of 35 mm, this was not a problem for me. It had four layers of onion skins and that was more than enough. And it had the Frame Stacks feature, which allowed you to make and see your animation at 25 fps at the click of a play button. At the time, it was still marvelous because of the authenticity of its few but brilliant brushes. Back then, around 2002, it was called Metacreations Painter. I used Corel Painter for the first time way back when it was introduced as a free software along with the Wacom Intuos tablet. Rao’s chosen tool is painting and design software Corel Painter - specifically its Frame Stacks animation feature, which she has used on almost all her films (including Bombay Rose). The director’s previous work includes the animated shorts Printed Rainbow and TrueLoveStory, which won at Cannes. This week’s guest is Gitanjali Rao, whose debut feature, the acclaimed Bombay Rose, debuts worldwide on Netflix in early 2021 (read our review here).
