The Scribble Effect: FREE Illustrator, Photoshop and After Effects Tutorials

Every time a new superhero movie comes out, we all wonder what sort of hardcore fan stunt will grab our attention this time. And sure, there is Comic-Con and the occasional custom t-shirt. But highly involved fans go as far as creating their own content to celebrate a beloved character. Some fans camp outside a movie theater for days before their favorite movie premieres. Others buy all official merchandise and display it proudly. And the most creative fans, use their talents to share astonishing art pieces with the rest of us.

 

Designers around the world have been inspired by the latest release from Marvel Studios, Captain America: The Winter Soldier.

Superhero graphic design is usually one of the favorites, it shows creativity and unique views of iconic characters. Fans add their personal touch and feelings to their creations. We figured it’s always better to show than tell. So get your tablet or mouse ready, because we guarantee you’ll want to share a piece of your own after seeing these Captain America vector designs.

How to Use the Scribble Effect

Let’s talk about how to create the animated scribble effect in Adobe Premiere Pro. This scribble animation effect can add a fun and creative touch to your videos. First, open your video editor and import the footage you want to animate. Then, select the clip and go to the Effects panel. Search for the scribble effect in Adobe Premiere Pro, and download it if you don't already have it. Customize the settings like width, overlap, and spacing, and select a creative texture for the doodle effect. Play around with the pen tool to edit the stroke path and shape of the animation. Finally, show you how to create a cool neon scribble effect for your YouTube channel!

 

For more advanced users, you can also create a scribble effect in Adobe After Effects. This animation effect allows for more control over the properties of your scribble animation. Mask out certain areas to make the doodles more dynamic, and animate the path to make the scribble effect come to life. You can even create a text effect by using the scribble animation as a mask for your text. This adds a unique and eye-catching element to your videos. Check out tutorials on YouTube to learn more about creating scribble animations in Adobe After Effects.

Captain America Illustrations - The Posters

The great thing about fan made movie posters is that each artist is able to feature the character or scene they liked the most. These 3 posters found on Behance.net are proof of it. They were all made for the same movie, yet each one has a different approach. A great poster does more than showing a movie title. Designers have the responsibility to tell a story from a single image, so people will feel compelled to get a ticket and watch it. And even though these are not official movie posters, illustrators have done a pretty good job creating promotional items.
