How Can I Create an Animation in this Particular Style?
polycounter lvl 9
So I'm attempting to create a short animation for my final years project in computer animation. I'm the artist on the project and we've decided on the kind of style we're looking for, along the lines of this:
Naturally modelling and texturing the model is now problem. But I'm having trouble trying to figure out how I can better do two things:
1. Creating rough pencil-like marks as an outline over the objects themselves
2. Overlaying a rough paper texture over the individual objects in scene.
I'm aware that I could technically just draw the pencil marks over the rendered images themselves, but this would be both extremely time consuming, and the reasult would be choppy and lack luster at best.
The only idea I have so far is to create a seperate version of the model whose UV's are transparent, save for some pencil marks in the texture map, rigged to the same bones, re-render the scene and overlay the pencil images over my original renders.
If anyone has any suggestions as to how I can create any of these effects, or possibly a film that seems similar that I could research it'd be wondeful.

a paper overlay would have to be done in post production as far as I know.

about the pencil lines, I was getting some good results with a plug in called pencil + 3. Might be worth a download, they have a trial

I would show you what I managed to make but I did it for work so I can't. It looked like a comic, Real heavy black shading and what not. Good luck!
