Simulate Real-World Media
Artitude provides the appearance of real-world media like oil paint, watercolor, colored pencil, markers, tempera, airbrush, and more. The software enables the simulation of various styles and artists, including cartoon, illustration, Van Gogh, Warhol, graphic novel, and many others. Built with over 120 presets, the program also allows users to create and save customized presets.
Artitude is not simply a toon shader plugin. While it can do that very well, it is a general purpose artistic toolkit that puts the power of creative aesthetic control at your fingertips.
 
Non-photorealistic rendering (NPR) focuses on enabling a wide range of expressive styles for video imagery. In contrast to traditional video, which has focused on realism, NPR is inspired by artistic styles such as painting, drawing, technical illustration, animated cartoons, etc. NPR has appeared in movies and video games in the form of “toon shading”, as well as in scientific visualization, architectural illustration and experimental animation.
Artitude uses state of the art NPR rendering techniques and allows you to combine them in powerful, unprecedented ways to create organic, animated effects never before possible.
Artitude uses state of the art Npr rendering techniques and allows you to combine them in powerful, unprecedented ways to create organic, animated effects never before possible. it incorporates years of my own experimentation and research in the field and experience gained in prior Npr plugins i have written. Artitude is based on fxfactory’s plugin engine which makes use of the power of your gfX card to do its rendering, thus does not load down your CpU. it is compatible with the hosts that fxfactory supports, currently fCp 6 through final Cut X, Motion 3 upto Motion 5, Adobe premier, and After effects. it requires at least 10.7 (lion) of the oSX operating system.
