This Dove commercial’s been circulating the internet for a few weeks now. Here’s the link if you haven’t seen it yet.

The program they use in this commercial looks like photoshop but isn’t photoshop. Anyone have any idea what they’re using here?

I think it’s a fake interface. In movies we often see computer screens with wat looks as ad hoc created user interfaces. Maybe it’s a rights matter, or the occasional BSOD’s iterfere with chroma keying 🙂

Actually there is a program that does this. I forget the name of it, it was orginally used with high-end film output machines.

Which shows you how old I am, I can remember the (inter)face but forget the name.

Quantel Paintbox was better than Scitex in it’s day.

I remember seeing Scitex announced at Print 85 in Chicago. I can’t remember if the price was $5,000,000 or $10,000,000, but it was one of those. (Of course, they included the computer at that price.)

so you’re saying this dream machine can take a 2D image (from film?) and work it over like a quasi-3D object, as seen in the dove commercial? With a similar, photoshop-esque user interface? And just 5 mil down…

Google’s either pulling up a large amount of nothing, or too much on "Scitex Stations". Someone have a link to read up on it?

chant: they were probably a QT of a screen that was layered into another movie, there was no magic to it.

No, scitex stations were a way to manipulate images in 2D (just like Photoshop)
