BSLIVE 0001 / Blender and Python TuriCreate for Style Transfer
In this episode of BS LIVE, I am sharing an idea how you can hook up Blender with external Python module called Turi Create to do IMAGE STYLE TRANSFER.
I assumed that you know a bit of Python workflow in Blender, you do not need to be a coding master in order to do this. In fact a lot of this is a good learning practice for computer artists.
The whole process:
– Create ML Style Transfer Model using Python module Turi Create, this can be done externally or inside Blender if you manage to do so
– Once the model is ready use it to apply style into Blender 3D Rendered Images
– Ideally things can run inside Blender maybe in almost real time maybe one day with Eevee
This is basically similar to Dwango Machine Learning style filter of OpenToonz app.
