Bezier Encapsulated Paint Animation

One advanced feature of Studio Artist is the ability to take a series of automatic (or manual) paint action steps in a Paint Action Sequence (PASeq) and automatically encapsulate the underlying painting as embedded bezier paths in the Action steps that can then be keyframe interpolated over time to construct transformative paint animations.

Image above is a screen shot from an experimental animation.  It was completely auto-generated from a folder of curated source images and a simple PASeq.  Quickly figured out there is some additional work to do to make this all work smoothly the way you would expect for paint synthesizer dynamic brush effects, so that was added to the 'to do' list for V6.
