Chapter 3 Your No. 2 Pencil 117
In the following example, the Kaleidoscope filter is applied to a single image. The filter
is animated over time to create a moving pattern generated from the single image.
To keyframe a filter:
1 Apply the Kaleidoscope filter (located in Library > Filters > Tiling) to an object.
2 Go to frame 1 and enable Record (press A).
3 In the Kaleidoscope Dashboard (press D), set a value for the Segment Angle and Offset
Angle.
Note: You can also use the filter’s onscreen controls in the Canvas to adjust the
Kaleidoscope parameters.
4 Go to the last frame and set new values for Segment Angle and Offset Angle.
5 Play the project.
