HOW TO: Do A Crystallize Gif Transition
Hi! I was asked to explain how I did the transition effect in this gifset, so here's a quick tutorial! Disclaimer: This tutorial assumes you have an intermediate understanding of gif-making in Photoshop using Video Timeline and requires the use of keyframes.
Tumblr media
PHASE 1: THE GIFS
1.1 – Determine how many frames you need. Since you need at least 2 scenes for a transition, consider limiting the amount of frames you'll use per scene. For a transition between 2 scenes that's 540x540px, I would recommend no more than 30 frames per scene (for a final gif that's 60 frames). Even that may be pushing it depending on your coloring. Just be sure to consider the dimensions and colors of your gifs in relation to the amount of frames to keep your final gif under Tumblr's 10MB limit.
1.2 – Import frames, crop, resize, convert to smart object for Video Timeline, color, blend, etc. Do this as you normally would! If you need a tutorial for the basics, here's my tutorial. :) Please note, the methods in this tutorial only work with gifs that are converted into smart objects in the Video Timeline workspace.
Tip A: I recommend using scenes where there's a lot of one color (or scenes where you can manipulate it to look like that). The crystallize filter on a gif creates A LOT of movement that can feel a bit chaotic. Having your gif be primarily one color reduces the eye strain a bit imo.
Tip B: I like how this effect looks with blended scenes because it allows me to use different "crystal" sizes (more on this in Step 2.2). Check out the USERGIF Resource Directory for plenty of blending tutorials!
1.3 – Move all your gifs into one document, group into folders, and arrange. Once everything's in one doc, keep everything organized in a group folder! I have just two scenes, so that's Folder 1 & 2. Within those folders are the gifs I blended, which I labeled by gif color. Then, simply drag Folder 2 so it continues right after Folder 1. (Make sure none of your adjustment layers from Folder 2 accidentally affect Folder 1! You can do this by clipping your adjustment layers to match the length of the gif as I did, or using clipping masks.)

(Ignore that lone Hue/Saturation layer lol. I decided last-minute that I wanted my gif to lean more pink than red.)
PHASE 2: THE FILTERS
2.1 – Duplicate each scene. We're going to use opacity keyframe animations on these duplicated scenes that allow it to go from "normal" to "effect" and vice versa. The filters will only be applied to the duplicates. In the screenshot below, all of my duplicates are highlighted:
Tumblr media
2.2 – Apply the Crystallize Filter. Above your sharpening settings, apply this filter by going to Filter → Pixelate → Crystallize. On the pink gifs, I made the crystals bigger (cell size: 45), and on the black and white gifs, I did a cell size of 25.

The different sizes help break up the uniformity of the crystals imo, creating more of a mosaic-like look, which is what I wanted to match my gifset concept.
Tumblr media
2.3 – Apply the Oil Paint Filter (Optional). Filter > Stylize > Oil Paint. Here are my settings (they're the same for both crystal cell sizes):
Tumblr media
Brush – Stylization: 0.1, Cleanliness: 8.6, Scale: 0.1, Bristle Detail: 0.3 Lighting – Angle: -60, Shine: 0.7
This filter helps soften the cells a bit while adding some texture (left: no oil paint; right: with oil paint):

2.4 – Repeat steps 2.2 & 2.3 on all duplicated scenes.
PHASE 3: THE KEYFRAMES
3.1 – Add opacity keyframes. The very start and end of each scene needs an opacity keyframe set to 100% opacity. Move 0.09 seconds from each of those points, and place another opacity keyframe, this time set to 0% opacity. We're basically making the crystals fade in and out. Please reference the screenshot below for keyframe placement:
Tumblr media
If you need more info on opacity keyframes, check out Phase 2 from this fade transition tutorial I did on usergif.
3.2 – Repeat step 3.1 on all duplicated scenes. All the keyframes in Folder 1 should line up exactly and all the keyframes in Folder 2 should line up exactly!
PHASE 4: THE DUPLICATES
4.1 – Convert back to Frame Animation. If you're not sure how to do this, I've written out the steps here. I rec the action linked in my general gif tutorial which I shared earlier!
4.2 – Delete duplicate frames. Whenever you use keyframe animations, you'll get duplicate frames. That's just how it works, unfortunately. If you follow my steps exactly (specifically the 0.09-second spacing, which follows my tried-and-true 0.03-second rule), you'll have a total of 12 duplicate frames exactly — 3 duplicates per keyframe section. Just manually delete them! You can spot the duplicates by eye, but with this spacing, it's usually the 2nd, 5th, and 8th frame for each transition section. The selected frames below were my duplicates:
Tumblr media
If you want to learn more about why there are duplicates and the math behind it all, I explained it in more detail in this ask.
4.3 – Export and you're done!

I hope this tutorial helps! Let me know if you have any questions :)

(I didn't include posting gifsets or peoples comments cause I'm curious about your least favorite part of making gifs)
I also submitted a poll about your favorite part of gifmaking so maybe check out that one as well

I'm sorry, Eddie said "you're not thinking about jumping ship" and "you ain't getting past me" and then Buck kissed a guy and freaked out about lying to Eddie, and Maddie said "if there's something you need to tell Eddie you will, just in your own time", and Eddie was the only person Buck volunteraly came out to, and Buck was in the room when Chris left, and Tommy broke up Buck because he was his first not his last, and Eddie was denying himself joy, but then found some joy and let Buck into it, and Buck went crazy because Eddie was moving and then pulled a grand gesture to let Eddie go back to Chris, and then they had a goodbye in the rain with a hug that was framed like Every Romance Movie Ever, and then Buck said Eddie's name 15 times in the same episode, heavily implied he used his basketball anniversary present with Eddie, and then Tommy called Eddie the competition, and then Buck said the only reason Eddie isn't the competition is because he is straight, and then the gay man, who by the way knew Buck was queer before Buck, scoffed at the concept, and then Buck said "I don't have to want to sleep with everyone I have feelings for" about Eddie and escalated to "everyone wants me to be hopelessly pining for my straight best friend" when no one had ever implied that there was something going on between them, and Maddie said "it wouldn't be so crazy" about Buck being in love with Eddie, when Tommy never said anything about love, he just heavily implied Eddie would swoop in eventually and Buck would let him, and then Eddie called buck after every inconvenience, and then Buck picked a fight because he needs Eddie to want him and Eddie escalated the fight because he wants Buck to need him, and then Eddie flew Chris back from Texas to cheer Buck up, and then Buck asked "where are you?" and Eddie replied with "right in front of you" and then said "ready when you are" and moved back to LA, and yall think it's not happening??? There's no way out of this narrative that's not Buck and Eddie making out sloppy style. They wrote themselves into a corner they cannot get out unless buddie gets together.

i am trying to sign up for a yoga class and saw that they offer "couples and friends" memberships (slightly discounted memberships for two people) so i am envisioning buck roping eddie into pretending to be a couple to get a discounted membership at the fancy new gym and them going through all these hijinx to convince the employees they are together and being overly flirty and touchy during their workouts to really sell it and the entire time they literally didnt need to be doing all that, the discounted membership is valid even if you are just friends
