OddPaintLiving Canvas for Images & Video
OddPaint is a Living Canvas for painting images and video with Image Brush, Living Brush, shared masks and damage effects. Keep pigment alive while you work, then bake it to the canvas when ready. The five modular processing engines remain in the separate Experimental Processing Studio.
How the process works
Paint images or video with Image Brush and Living Brush, use shared masks to target regions, and shape the canvas with damage effects. The processing engines run in the separate Experimental Processing Studio, which works independently of OddPaint.
Inputs and source material
Import images, video or camera clips into source wells and paint them as pigment.
Save and export
Save editable projects and export PNG, JPG or WebP stills and WebM motion in the browser. Supported browsers preserve timed-export cadence. The Windows application also supports MP4 and GIF.
