this project that im working on. Im trying to create a high speed effect, like your travelling through space or racing on a race track. you have those streaks in the design to give the illusion of travelling at high speed.
Im looking to use some football players on the design so what i should use for a background. The design will be quite small and im looking to create the design as an animated gif when its done.

I had a pc crash and am reloading all my old programs including VS 4. I found everything except a couple effect. One was a crown that could be adjusted and placed on a head, another was a wand that went across the screen with sparkling bits, another had butterflies, etc.

i'm intending to make a photo calender. i've selected 12 best photos for the job, but what i lack now is uniqueness. other than the predominant filters that i can apply in CS3, playing with black/white/sepia colours, what other things can i do to make the images look more stunning/refreshed? maybe you guys can introduce some workflow techniques to me, or perhaps some nice add-ons that i can use to make this wonderful workpiece.

For an art class at my high school, I want to create a series of photomanipulated images that I would title "Be Extraordinary." Basically, I want every picture to be a picture of me doing some sort of extraordinary thing, leaning more towards sci-fi stuff.
I already have an idea for one of me wielding a lightsaber, but after that, I've run out of ideas for anything I know how to do in Photoshop. I had an idea for me creating some sort of energy shield, but I simply don't know how to really create that effect in Photoshop.

I have created a 3d object in photoshop that I want to bring into after effects CC and do a very simple 360 spin.
I have read that the 3d import is no longer available from CS6 onwards so I have downloaded Cinema 4D lite plugin for affer effects. I have managed to get the photoshop 3d object into Cinema 4d as I would expect but now I am struggling to find a way to export that object and import it into After Effects?

Applying an effect, such as a blur, to a blend seems to disable the "Smooth Color" option. I can use "Specified Steps" or "Specified Distance" to correct the look of the blend, but I am just curious as to why this happens with "Smooth Color."

I want to morph a picture of a camera in after effects so that it moves up very quickly turning into a black ball that rotates towards the left in a circular motion and morphs into another picture. How do I go about doing this. Both pictures are PNGs. This is my camera that I want to morph into the black ball. This is the shape that the black ball morphs into

How do I import 3D models into a 3D layer in After Effects? Previously this was done by exporting the model to Photoshop Extended where you could save the file as a 3D layer PSD file and import this 3D information into AE. But with CS6 this functionality seems to have been removed from what I read in the documents. So how is it done now?

I'd like to make multiple copies of a .jpg I've made rain down from the top of the screen, ad-infinitum. Like, imagine small cat's heads raining down from the top of the screen.
I have foggy memories of an effect where I can just replace the default object with my own, but am having no luck finding it.

automatic creation of 3D objects from images feature in Zaxwerks' ProAnimator? Its strengths and weaknesses?
Also: I'm on AE CS6 currently, am I right in assuming that AE CC/4D Lite does not have this feature?

I'm starting to get into video compositing a bit and I was wondering what your opinions are on the best program to use - 3ds Max or After Effects? Basically I'm shooting some live footage, solving for the camera motion in PFTrack, and I want to composite 3D objects/effects into my scene. Of course all of my modeling and animating will have to be done in Max, but which is the better program to use for actually Compositing it all together? Is it better to import the camera track into Max, set up the whole scene with lighting and cameras and everything, set the environment background as the original footage, and render it all in one shot? Or is it better to just render the models as an image sequence in Max (with alpha channel) and actually put the layers together in After Effects?
So far I've done a few test shots in 3ds Max alone, but it seems like most people prefer to composite in After Effects. What are the advantages/ disadvantages to each? It would be great to hear from people who have actually done this before.

I outlined a bit of text, and then applied Effect > Warp > Arch. What I'd like to do is cut apart parts of the now outlined letters. I tried to use the pathfinder palette, but it applies the pathfinder to old, non-arched shape.

I was wondering if you could draw a motion path for objects to follow. I have multiple objects(12) that all need to follow on the same path. Do I have to animate all of them individually, or can I draw a path? These objects are NOT masks. They are text imported from Illustrator(CS6).
If Microsoft Powerpoint can do it, then surely Adobe can...

I have a 9 layer Illustrator file that uses multiple transparency effects. I need to combine all the elements so that I can use the pieces with a transparent background, but no matter what I do, it requires a white background to look right. File is here:

If I have a number of shapes on top of each other, with, for example, a drop shadow on the top shape, whenever I try and select the shape below it (it is peeking out from beneath the top shape, so I click on this 'peeking' section of the shape to try and select it) I cannot - it just selects the top shape as the top shape's drop shadow is 'blocking' the shape below it. Make sense?
How do I go about about remedying this? I seem to recall being able to tell Illustrator to ignore 'effects' when making selections in CS4, but cannot work out how to do this in CS5. And is there a way to refine the 'sensitivity' or selection radius when clicking to make selections?

In the image above, the blue needs to be transparent. BUT the white strokes, white space around the example top left image, and the drop shadow effects all still want to be there. (i.e. the blue areas should `punch through` everything to transparency). Whilst keeping the drop shadows rendered in these areas which will darken parts of the transparent areas. Make sense?
The purpose is to export the image as a .png with transparency where the colour should be, which is used in a seperate application which sets a background colour behind the .png image - this allows real time changing of the image colours to whatever we need rather than being stuck with the colour in the image
Attempts with the above though usually end up with me loosing the effects, or they dilute and look different when the blue is removed, or things don't layer up propperly.

I'm new to After Effects and struggling just a bit. I tried searching this forum but found no obvious reference to my question. I have figured out how 3d Tracking works for a single object, but don't know how to handle multiple tracked objects on the same video clip. How do I go about tracking more than one object or Text Object in the same clip?

I want to rotate three objects along a circular orbit, horizontally. But I want the objects always facing camera. I added the three objects to my comp, added a circle shape layer and rotated it to lay horizontally, then placed each object along the circle shape, rotating it slightly for each new object, then parenting each object to the circle once it was in the right place. From there, I added a camera and a null, parented the circle shape to the null, and set keyframes to rotate the null along the Y rotation.
The result is that the objects indeed rotate along the circular orbit, as I want, but they TURN as they rotate, which is not what I want. I've tried applying "Auto Orient...Orient Toward Camera" and "Orient Along Path", neither of which work. I've applied this to the null, the circle shape, and the objects. They all still turn.
Here's a screen for some context: Using CS5, but have a trial of CS6 if that's useful

I work in pre-press for a Label Printing company and we do Flexo and Screen printing. I get files from designers, most files have been created in Illustrator.
I use Corel Draw X5 to do my pre-press work and some of the files I get have Lens effect objects. When I apply the "No Lens Effect" the object changes to a Symbol and it has no fill and no outline, how do I convert the Symbol object to a "regular" object?
I want to know the best way to convert these Lens and Symbol objects to regular objects that are "flattened" or do not have transparency. I need to be able to work with these objects like they are a regular vector object that can be edited for pre-press to make files to send to have films output.
OR, will an object that has a Lens effect output normally if I make a Postscript file fro the Lens effect object? Do I even need to convert the Lens effect in order to get the image to output correctly?

I don't know a lot about PS or Illustrator, but have used both a bit. However, I have a problem with bending a text. This is what I have done so far:
I imported a vector image from Illustrator into Photoshop (it's RBG), and put a text in. I played a bit with Color Overlay (I think it was) on the text.
I want to Create Warped text, and I have done it before, but now, I can't seem to mark the text at all. When I'm on the Text Tool and stand in front of the text and click, a tiny black square appears, but I can't mark it.

How I can modify this to something closer to the 2011 version. More specifically - I used to use the "camera based selection" option all the time, and would love to have it back... It would be a bonus if modifying the marking menus for specific keys, was as easy for the ones surrounding the hotbox.
