Experiment: Progressive Dissolve Image Filter

Here’s a quick demo of an image filter that I thought up during one of my last projects though it never managed to find itself in the launch.

I’ve deliberately slowed down the animation so that you have a better idea of what’s happening. Five of the six images used in the demo are sourced from the Flickr ‘Interestingness’ page.

During the same project, I came up with another interesting filter and I’ll throw the code together and show you in the coming days. (Update: this has been completed - find it here)

If you like this stuff, you’ll probably want to make sure you’re up with Adobe Hydra (AIF Toolkit) which will be released with Flash CS4 - check out Kevin Goldsmith’s blog for more info. This experiment wasn’t done using Hydra, though it probably could have been.

Nice! It reminded me of the idea I had once, to fade in JPEG by dynamically adjusting the compression quality. Yours looks very similar to this. Big up!

[…] also find the act of watching the image emerge to be quite exciting. As with my previous experiment, there seems to be a lightbulb moment where you actually understand what it is you’re looking […]
