Best Photoshop plug-in or action for converting photos to a spray paint look?

Question

For a project I will be doing, the client will be receiving a bunch of photos from their employees. Traditionally, these photos are not well-composed, high-res, professionally shot images but selfies or other type images they might take with the camera on their phone.
This year, the client has asked me if it would be possible to convert these images into something that looks like it's been painted by a graffiti artist, partly because their theme is somewhat "urban" and partly because I think they think that this would gloss over the bad quality photos. However, they don't want the stencil-outline one or two colour Banksy look kind of thing. As much as I dread saying it, they want something that I can just apply to the photo and convert it to give a uniform look as there may be as many as 300 photos. I have been researching various pieces of software, plug-ins and tutorials but I'm just getting bogged down by it all and to make matters worse, they want to see what it could look like before they will agree to it, so it's not like I can go on a software spending spree. If someone does have a solution that I think works, I will be happy to pay for it -- I'm not looking for a freebie -- but I can't afford/the budget doesn't allow purchasing multiple products for testing purposes. When the photos do come in, there won't be budget or time to painstaking handcraft them all, either. They will not be used in a print application so resolution is not an issue.
Which is why I'm here. I was hoping that someone might have been in a similar situation and has a suggestion. I've already looked at

But there's so much out there these days it's hard to keep track and Google returns a lot of um... interesting results that have nothing to do with what I'm looking for.
Also, if there is an AfterEffects plug-in that would do it, I'm fine with that too. I haven't looked at the filters I have yet.
Thanks!

First you need to make sure that the offline files location on client PCs will change location once the new server comes online. This depends on how you push these settings out in the first place, generally it is best to use GPOs to achieve this but you may or may not be doing it this way.
You could cheat and create a CNAME which points the location of the old share to the new, but this is messy and not a great solution.
When it comes to the actually copying files, create a Robocopy script and have it run out of hours, probably over a weekend would be the best time.
Make sure you sure that any scripts/GPO/Applications which point to the old file server are changed to the new location before you go live with the migration.
