hi there! i was wondering what your settings are when you sharpen/blur your gifs? they're all super clean and smooth and look really nice. if you don't want to show them, no worries feel free to ignore this!
awww thank you <3 ofc i don’t mind sharing!
SURFACE BLUR:
for the threshold, i switch between 3 and 4 depending on what i’m giffing.
SHARPEN:
MINIMUM *when i want thicker lines*
sometimes i adjust the opacity of the blend mode to 80-90% if i feel like the scene doesn’t need the full amount (like when i want the lines to be bolder, but there are lots of details in the scene i need to keep? idk how to explain it).
when i do minimum sharpening, i will also add a smart sharpen filter afterwards (settings shown below). imo minimum sharpen alone can make the image fuzzy, so adding a smart sharpen will help make things more crisp without overdoing it. i haven’t found a more efficient way to achieve this.
SMART SHARPEN *my normal sharpening*
if i’m using smart sharpen alone, i set the blend mode to darken at 100% (sometimes i don’t for scenery).
