I have posted a new training video series on the Smoke Learning Channel.Mocha Pro to Smoke Interoperability
In these videos, you learn how to prepare data in Mocha Pro and export the settings into Autodesk Smoke. This includes Tracking Data, Masking Data and 3D Camera Tracking Data. It's a really good series to watch even if you are not using Mocha Pro with Autodesk Smoke.
You can view the video on the Smoke Learning Channel at URL....or you can download the video via iTunes. Just search for the Smoke Learning Channel.

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'm in CFX in the Modilar Keyer. I loaded a setup previously with GMASKs previously applied on a HD shot. I now need to scale the GMASK for a 4K HD shot (200%). I was told to go in the GMASK schematic (the one that looks like action) and add a parent axis to move all the masks at once. WHen I'm in GMASK schematics I don't have access to a node bin. Where do I add an AXIS to parent all my masks in there?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm working with 1080i50 footage. Interlaced, upper field (F1). When I apply an Axis effect to a clip in the timeline an render that, the result is wrong.
I'm not sure what exactly it is. Either the fields are inverted or somehow 'melted' into one frame. In the Axis editor the Interlaced/Progressive switch is set to Interlaced. If I set it to Progressive the rendered result is ok.
I'm trying to make a PIP in a timeline with Axis. PIP is a easy thing so I made it of course.
But the problem is When I use multiple PIPs. There's no Global axis like in Action, so I couldn't control PIPs at once. I thought make a Gap effect with axis or Container would be work, but It didn't work as I thought.
Do I have to make a mask for PIP? Is there any way to move, rotate, scale them together easily? & Axis could have only one image? In animation view, there's a Global axis and a image axis.
Using the axis transition how would I go about creating a push, it sounds so simple but I've been screwing around for a little bit and haven't done it.
I've done a "slide in" on my incoming clip but thats just half of it. Also, I saw somewhere that you can reveal the axis nodes on a timeline axis effect, but I'll be damned it I cant remember how.
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 RelatedIt would be nice to have the full set of blend modes available to the AXIS tool in the timeline.
Quite often the most used blend modes for quick color treatments....Overlay, Hard Light and Soft Light etc...are not available in the timeline AXIS soft effect.
Is this a limitation of the soft effect as opposed to using ACTION or say Blend&Comp nodes?
New users would probably not find where the extra layer blend modes where, and may simply think that Smoke lacks these most used blend modes.
How do I Hide or Unhide Axis or other Nodes in Action?
View 3 Replies View Related1) Is there a way to hide all axis icons in Action apart from selected ones? Even though they turn grey it's often very hard to see the selected one in big comps.
2) In HD text module how can I see the full picture? While postioning text I can't see the bottom of the picture on either the preview monitor or the broadcast monitor.

I have a problem everytime i apply the axis effect on a clip in the timeline. What happens is that smoke starts loading the effect, but hangs there, and after a while a message comes up saying that due to a software error smoke must close. But the only way to close it, is only if i do force quit process through terminal. Everything else works really well though, besides this specific issue with axis effect. This by the way didn't happen with Smoke 2013 SP2, maybe a hardware compatibility issue?
here is the smoke log file from console:
Sep 09 20:33:33 : No shader unit for shader (null).

The footage that i'm using is SD PAL, in DV format (.mov) files, captured through firewire through Premiere CS6. Is it a problem of the footage? GPU? or am i missing something?

( I found out how to import the tracking and camera data thru a nice tut) I know there is a nice auto stabilized node, but over the break I didn't have access to smoke. So I just went and did it in mocha pro. I can export the ''stabilizer'' from mocha, but am lost from there.

I'm testing Mocha with Smoke Advanced and have run up against a problem.When I import the corner pin data from Mocha for a mobile phone screen, there is a significant offset for each corner.
Mocha support have been very useful, and the problem is not to do with aspect ratio or frame size. The track looks perfect inside Mocha.I've followed the exact process featured in the link below.

I'm working on an edit, which is in video mode. Now I have to include OpenEXR material, which is in linear mode. How can I combine the two and still have the correct color?
I can set it in view mode to linear, but then all my video shows as linear too, plus, as soon as I leave the view mode, it all goes back to video, and my EXR's are too dark then..... what can I do?

I have try everything I can think of but Smoke 2013 won't export any clip and when i was able to export 1 it wouldn't play. Iwas able to export on Smoke 2012 demo with no problems.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm having issues exporting still frames from Smoke. How do you specify the frame to export as a Single Frame? I can see anywhere where you tell Smoke what frame should be the Single Frame to export from a timeline.
I need to export a series of frames, about 200 in total but they are at random places in a 1 hour 30 min timeline so I need a fast and easy way to get this done.
I have a sequence that I only want to export a segment of, from my marked in-point to out-point.
Where is the option like in FCP & Avid, to just export that segment? I would really like to have to not create a subclip each time I just want to export a segment.
I'm conforming a sequence - importing RED files - then exporting that sequence for color. When importing the RED files, what color setting should I use? Camera, user etc? If user then what other options should I use knowing that I'll export a dpx sequence for color?

It isn't done until it is finished.

I imported an AAF linking to R3D and Sony footage. When I tried scrubbing the timeline, I got that message. Smoke is REALLY slow now. And when I try to look at footage in my gateway, I get READ ERROR.

I'm trying to export quick times from smoke 2013 but it's failing the whole time. The engineer installed sp2 but I realized that the system has still installed the sp1, has it something to do?, I have to uninstall sp1 and then install sp2?, I mean, have I to install the smoke again? In the company where I'm working with there are two smoke systems and I'm opening the backburner monitor and appears the two systems, is it good?, The error that that the system has is:

I 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 .
PR5. Up until this release, I haven't had a problem exporting quicktime movies. I have a 2:30 long video that I'm trying to export with no success, at best I'll get 30 seconds of my project. I'm not as familiar with Smoke setups and preferences
