How did they do that?

Has anyone seen the newest line of Charles Schwab commercials? They look like real film/video that has been "cartoonized" ... do you think they did that with something like Photoshop and did it frame by frame?

Or do you think (know) there is a program that would do that to the entire film/video?

hhi,
well i am just a novice/ hobbiest but i do know you can apply that kind of effect either to a entire clip or on a just frame by frame bases depending on how the project is layed...

although you can do that with photoshop, again depending on the project, but overall that very laborious although using action and batch processsing speed things up a little.... but ... it best , I think , to use a good movie editor program... they have filters that will do that!! and that a lot faster.....!

and of course... what your seeing on the tube , there using a high end expensive program to do it!!.. smiling..... which one I don't know maybe video toster or something equilivent...

now I can do something like that with my ulead visual studio 9 (heck a lot cheaper then toaster...lol) maybe not as good as your high end but for my purposes works for me... also programs like pennicle and adobe premier should be able to do it also .... and maybe proshow gold.. but not sure... all of these programs are good and are relatively inexpensive...!!

hi,
keep in mind there at least appx 24 pictures/frames per sec!! a 20 or 30 sec clips... a lot of frames....

now you can do do that with photoshop... develop a action and do batch processing to to make things a little faster....

however... I be willing to bet they used a very expensive movie editor program.... smiling... with tons of special effects...

my ulead movie editor has a "cartoon" effect that does something similar....!! and a lot easier and faster than trying to do it in photoshop...
