Hi all,

Is there a plugin already out there that automtaically add bezier lines with the shape of your alphas after keying? *Not working with image sequences.

After working with lousy green and blue green assets, I started wishing that the alphas created can generate pen outlines simultaneously.

Any comments will be highly appreciated!

Now---"What if" Composition Applications can do this:

Just wondering and thinking with innovative intentions, is there a plugin already out there that automtaically add bezier lines with the shape of your alphas after keying?

Huh? Layer --> Auto Trace? Imagineer motor? Silhouette FX?

The rest is confusing and of little real value. You clearly have not investigated the intentions and underlying principles of the Puppet Tool (or other AE core functions for that matter). Image based geometry extraction is much more complex than determining a few outlines and it won't compete with ZBrush, anyways. I also don't quite follow why you go on forever about 2D pose-morphing - you can already do that with plugins such as RE:Flex, you just have to buy them.
