For Anime in Blender - Vibes 3D model

Hey all!

Anime shines in it's rich visual language. In so many ways, it adds comedic elements and emphasizes the emotions we see in the characters. Anime would truly be lost without these.

This post processing tool gives you, what I like to call, vibes. I've seen this many times in the form of an aura - which is quite clever, since it plays on something we see, but can't physically see - how people are feeling. Sometimes we can pick it up without it showing outside, but this demonstrates it for us on-screen!

The purple usually refers to a controlled rage, or spite, as well as envy or disghust. It can also be used to show a character smells (good - gold or pink; or bad - green or dark brown), is a ghost or again, emphasizing emotion. I've seen sickness in one of Jaiden Animations' videos shown with blue - haha!

For this one, I set it up with a set of really cool features and I think you're gonna love it all!

• Toon vs Soft vibes
• Offset control to make animating trailing an option
• Scale control for the noise texture used for the effect
• Animated!!
• Saturation control for the soft vibes (toon uses the straight color)
• Foreground masking to remove any excessive bluring where it doesn't make sense

This is _a fantastic addition _to the For Anime toolbox and I'm super ecstatic to share it with you guys! :D

To use:

• Append the node group using File - Append - Downloaded file - NodeTree.
• Find in the compositor under Add - Groups - For Anime - Vibes.
• Mask (Objects) is to tell it what to apply the effect to.

NOTE: This is for Eevee and for Cycles! It works with cryptomatte, so regardless, you can use it.
