View 6 RepliesI tried different things, like pixel spread, shrink, etc but I don't seem to get a better key than in my screenshot...."I know there is a way in Autodesk Smoke that you can use to paint the hue underneath your faded image. Its called the wash paint if I'm correct."
I don't know how that should work though.... how to get rid off the white edges but keep the blur?

I made some motion graphics in Action and I want to turn on Motion Blur for rendering.When I press the button it doesn't turn on. It stays off.
This is inside the Action Node Prefs in the Rendering tab.why I it won't switch on?I'm using Smoke 2013 SP2.
Is there any way to turn on motion blur in Axis on the time line like you can in Action?
I looked in setup and it doesn't seem to be there, hoping I'm just missing something and I don't have to hall this text into action and back each time it gets updated.
I've got a load of text whizzing about on 3d paths and an overall camera move. The thing is i want loads of motion blur on the text but NOT on the camera move itself.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to use motion vectors that I rendered from Maya 2011 using Mental Ray's 2D Vectors for Toxik preset. The vectors work for blurring in Toxik and Nuke but when I bring them into CFX, the Motion Blur node goes crazy and shows arrows going off in all different directions. Is there a different format for rendering motion vectors from Maya for CFX or is this a Smoke 2013 bug?

I'm sure some people will call this the "Paperman" effect.
I see a lot of information out there on how to use motion vectors to do motion blur, but not much else. I'm sure they are capabable of soo much more! All that movement information from 3D in a 2D environment sounds great!
I have motion vector channels correctly exported from Maya and I'm wording which CFX combination I would use to composite a texture in a way that it was controlled by the movement information of the motion vector channel.
I know these 4 CFX can read motion vectors.
Motion Blur Node
Timewarp Node
Pixel Spread
Motion Analysis
But so far, no luck in achieving the desired effect.
I'm editing a music video, when apply time warp a one shot for example 25% for slow motion , the shot repeat the last frame, 4 frames.

How can I adjust this?
I want guassian blurred text over another layer. Using a matte, how can you blur text outside of the matte instead of just blurring the inside?
View 3 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to access the timeline within CFX ( much like in Flame ) ? I see the timing button but this doesn't seem to have the same control as a timeline for a specific clip.
Also, is there a way other then "explode one" or "explode all" to go within a CFX within a CFX ( pre comp ) ? i.e. a setup that is then put within the BG of action.
Is there a way to get rid of the play tab on the timeline?

It isn't done until it is finished.
I'm trying to do some basic motion graphic builds with logos, and mask shapes.
Is there an easy way yo bring in mask shapes, timed animation position or scale keyframes that I have in AE... Like Copy keyframes, or mask shape from AE, and Paste into Smoke...
Is it possible to grab the head or tail of the video segment and have the timeline stay stationay and you drag the edge to the timeline position?
View 6 Replies View RelatedWhile in CFX, Action, Text edit, Axis etc, is there a way to see the output of the timeline? I know while in CFX you can set the CFX output as a context but what if I have multiple CFX composites stacked up and I want to see the final output of the timeline while editing or modifying something inside a CFX or Action node?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have an edit and now I want to export as DPX sequence. A couple of questions:
First, is there an easy way to take a single edit and export it with handles? I realize that I can make a subclip but is there an easier/better way to do this?
I can't find an automated way to set handles on export. I have about 175 shots that I need to export .
It is possible to duplicate/copy a clip/gap effect on the timeline? Or do you *have to* drag/copy it to a Source Area first? In this particular case, I've got 3 gap effects that I'm essentially using as adjustment layers...for some reason I thought I could hold down F & drag them somewhere else in the timeline which would create a duplicate and drag them to wherever I dropped them. But maybe not...? In the meantime, I just copied them to a Source Area, and then dropped them back on the timeline where I needed them, which worked just fine.

Everything I do from export, Hard commit, burn letterbox all wants to start rendering the full res footage. Is there a workaround a trick to bake out a proxy res version?

I wanted to take a section out near the start, it just had V and A1, A2. There was A3-6 further down the timeline but they hadn't started yet.
For some reason I can't get Smoke to cut a track that hasn't got any media before that point. So, at the section I needed to remove I couldn't place a cut and so when I removed a section A3-6 stayed where they were.
I also tried marking in to out and extract but again it left the other audio tracks.
Such a simple thing, but I can't work out how to do it
Is it possible to move keyframes in the timelime or do I have to go into the animation curves menu to do it?
View 2 Replies View RelatedThere is a shortcut key that I have been using in FCP for years. That is to select the edge of a clip and hit "E" and the clip will extend to where ever the timeline is.
Is there a function like this in smoke 2013?
Graphics import into the library with a default length of 1 frame. Is there a way to lengthen that so I don't have to zoom way in to grab the edge of the clip?
View 1 Replies View RelatedWith PR4 the right click contextual menu for the timeline seems to have been re-arranged to accomodate new features.
As a result, when you right-click a timeline element to remove all effects you have to move your pointer up through a list of about 15 items to reach the "Remove Effect" command.
There also appears not to be an assignable keyboard shortcut to remove all effects from a selected timeline element. (apart from Option+Clicking on the effect in the effect bar which just removes a single item).
Would it not make sense to have this remove effect command at the bottom so that it appears right near your pointer when you activate the menu?A keyboard shortcut binding would be ideal as I realise the contextual menus are probably in a state of constant change at the moment.
In 2012 it was very easy to select a gap segment and click color source in the soft effects. In 2013 it appears to be much more difficult, you need to create it in a folder then edit it into a sequence. Am I missing something? I wish there was a color source option in the effects ribbon.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have got some questions:
1. How can I select many clips on the timeline? (I work with a Wacom tablet.) When I press the pen onto the tablet and move it, I can only pull the gap. In connect fx it works, when I hold cmd.
2. If I set markers in the timeline, is there a way to also see them in connect fx?
3.There is a function in Final Cut: When I I select a clip from the timeline and press "f" , I can go on working on its source clip in the viewer. Is there something similar in smoke? I cannot find the name for this function, so I cannot search for it in the keyboard shortcuts.
4. If I render something, is there a way that Smoke automatically copies the file (without copying the effects)? The reason for that question is: I applied timewarp to a clip, then I wanted to go on working on the clip in connect fx, but the length of the clip changed - it was shorter. When I went on working in action and put some lense flares and rendered it, everything was bended and looked weird. It looked great but I did not intend to do something like this.
The next questions are no real questions but rather problems.
5. When I work with audio (audio clip locked), I cannot really cut on the music, because 5a. sometimes the amplitudes do not match the music. An example: There is no amplitude, but the music goes on for 2 seconds. 5b. And when it is correct and I cut on the beat and render it, it is not sync anymore some moments later or when I restart smoke. (It only displaces 1 or 2 seconds from the sync.)
6. Since I have updated from pre-release 4 to pre-release 5, I cannot export anymore. I have read a lot on blogs, but I could not really find my problem. I cannot even press the export button.
I'm looking for the workflow for Red Footage.
In our facility, we are shooting 4k HD format. Then we can finish our final project as HD.
I installed Red Rocket and the Red Footage as Half premium debayer (1920x1080) playback in realtime at preview window of the "Media" tab.
However, I insert the same clip on the timeline (1920x1080, same as Half premium debayer), smoke automatically puts resizing effect. When I open the effect, I notice this effect doesn't do anything.
