I have seen an advertisement of a telephone company that have done some cool and interesting artistic effect with lots of poligonal shapes, lines and colors, and I was wondering if this nice effect could be possible to be made in some way with Filter Forge, I have been looking in the filter library but there is nothing tha can be compared to this, also have searched in the forum for unpublished filters, but found nothing useful either.

found this crossed lines

The only possible similar reference, although is NOT the same, could be only this one hereA "Stones"-like noise with triangular forms?


I am refering to this examples here













I do not know if with FF would be possible to convert a source image into these examples shown above, if not possible perhaps would be possible in some other way with another software or plugin.

Thanks very much for any help you could give, will be much appreciated

I forgot to say that I have already tried to make something but the result is far away from this and totally random and without any control.

This is suppossed to be the FF built-in kingfisher bird, but is only possible with transparency and without any black border edges on the poligons as I do not know how to do it.

and this is the FF lifesaver that also has transparent poligonal shapes because I can´t make them solid and keep looking good.

I saw a couple filters that might get you started on this

http://filterforge.com/filters/223.html



http://filterforge.com/filters/10983.html

maybe something like those and also run a pass through the edge filter to get the black lines?

Thanks Burt, the first one is not what like the ones above, BUT the second one has very good the fine black or color border edges as the ones above and this could be useful and interesting.

Oh, yes, I have also thought about this and I am going to try it.

You can get somewhere reasonably close.

This shown here in this thread is an example of what I am asking in this other thread

How do you know what components to choose to do what you want in FF ?

I mean, how have ThreeDee been able to know what components he should use to be able to make such good examples as shown above?

I improved upon the method some.

The slowest part if the outlines, for I am doing them with "Detect outlines", not the fastest component around. Without outlines, the filter renders 5x faster.

But here are some samples from the reworked version. The previous version had 6 selectable colors, this one has 9.

The results are interesting at lower "vector" frequencies:

I'll make a dropshadow option and a couple of tweaks, then it will be ready for the queue...

The filter should arrive soon to the library under the name of Polygon Fill.

This is what I chose for the default preset.

In fact, you can make patterns without an input image.
