in this tutorial, we’ll dive into using edge fx in touchdesigner to layer stylized outlines over video footage—creating an experimental, motion-driven visual aesthetic.

we’ll walk through combining monochrome base layers, displace and noise-based motion, emboss details, and finally edge extraction to build a layered, expressive look.
