Photoshop :: Motion Blur Background On Automotive Photo

Oct 28, 2011

Im trying to motion-blur the background on an automotive photo I shot and didnt slow the shutterspeed down enough. So, using the quick selection tool, I selected the car, zooming it in to make sure I got every pixel, then Cntrl-C, then Cntrl-V to save as a layer. Then, I reselected the background layer and applied motion-blur which got me the effect I want.

The problem is now the edges of the car have a ghost outline which will decrease if I lessen the blur to under 12 pixels. Which defeats the purpose.

Photoshop :: Gaussian Blur On Photo Against Gradient Background?

May 3, 2012

Using PS CS4 on XP. I just got a job back from the printer company & I am noticing some lines that didn't appear on my print out here (on xerox color printer machine) to compare. I didn't really catch them on the proof either, but they used an epson proof and we printed on 100# gloss text stock for the final.
 
What I have going on is a gradient background (using shape layer and gradient layer style effect) from a white to a light tan. Top to bottom on a regular Letter size sheet. In the upper right hand corner I have a image of a face that had that same light tan in the background. I faded this image into the gradient background by using gaussian blur.

This is not very noticable in the file, but I can tell that it is there...you have to really focus your eyes to see it, but it's there, a line going around the image where the gaussian blur is. I'll attach a photo of the edge. I guess what I'm saying is it is not smooth - the image edges being blurred into the gradient background, but printed off a regular printer, it looks smooth. Is there anything I can do to prevent this in the future?

Photoshop :: A Better Motion Blur?

Mar 6, 2008

I have used the motion blur filter, but it just does not look photographic. Does anyone know of any other 3rd party filters or techniques to make to the motion blur look more realistic. I know you can mask and erase parts. And, make a copy slightly transparent and offset.

It seems realistic motion blur has more solid highlights from end to end and soft shadows.
Also realistic motion blur only goes in one direction.

I thought someone would have a better motion blur filter with more options with highlight and shadow control. and some random waviness as if not going exactly in one direction

Photoshop :: Motion Blur For A Car

Oct 2, 2006

I understand the basic concept of the motion blur, but what I'd like to do is create a picture where I have a vehicle that pretty much looks normal in front but from the mid-point back... it's a gradual blur that has enough color to make sure the viewer senses it is the car and not the background. I'd like the car to be separate from the background so I can experiment with backgounds blurred or not. I'm almost thinking you'd stretch the back half of the car with a gradual fade. Hope I'm explaining this correctly .

Another effect I'm not sure about is whether it would look good with staged, blurred layers so that the car is in varying levels of transparency but you see the full outline of the car and its like steps with a disolve to almost nothing on the left and in say 20 sequences... the last car on the right is fully rendered and highlighted.

Photoshop :: Motion / Blur Prior To Lightroom

Dec 23, 2011

I am interested in controlling motion/blur in the photograph, prior to Lightroom and Photoshop.  Many photo subjects (e.g. leaves, cars, waves) are moving.  I've been calculating the pixel size in a photo.  This is not just the pixel information of the sensor.  For example, with a certain lense zoom and focus distance, each pixel will represent a definable zone of the image.  Then, there is the zone of the print, which corresponds to the original zone of the image.  There are many variables to consider.  Motion within and beyond each pixel affects the image.
 
I am interested in literature, documentation or people that will guide me in the understanding of the control of motion/blur in the taking of the photo.  With this, my photos will be far better and, also, easier to edit.

Photoshop :: Automatic Motion Blur Trails From Two Images

May 16, 2013

When doing architectural photography, its often desired to have motion blur on the people so as to obscure their faces.  Unfortunately it needs to look realistic, and I've just been doing it by hand, but it seems like there should be an automatic way when you have two images like this: 

Obviously I am able to do this by hand somewhat decently, but that's not what I'm after.  I want a way to do automatic motion blur, and I want the trails to look realistic.

Illustrator :: Where Is Motion Blur Effect In AI

Jul 4, 2012

There's a gaussian and radial blur. What's so different about a motion blur?
 
I can create a sudo-motion blur by grouping several objects and moving one object off the page, then moving the center of the radial blur to that side, in the radial blur dialog. It would be much easier with a motion blur effect.
 
Another workaround is to blend  2 objects of different transparencies, but I can't save it as a graphic style. Transform would work, if transparency of "duplicate" objects could be altered. I don't see a way to do that either.
 
Looking for some creative solutions for motion blur effect, THAT CAN BE SAVED AS A GRAPHIC STYLE, I'd like to hear about them.

Xara :: Apply A Motion Blur Effect?

May 13, 2011

I'm trying to blur some text so that it blends in with the background a little. I found the perfect way to do this using the Live Effect, Soften Filter, Motion Blur. However, when I finish getting it to blur to exactly how I need it to look, there is no option to apply this to the text. When I close the box (the only option available) I lose the effect! How do I get it to apply to my text? Do I need to change the text to a shape first?

3ds Max :: Animated Wing On Butterflies With PF Motion Blur

Feb 25, 2013

I need a swarm of butterflies flapping their wings. The butterflies needs to have motion blur in the direction they move. In addition the wings will also have their own motion blur in the direction they are flapping.

I have animated and linked the wings to the body of the butterfly. I then used a particle flow system with instance geometry and a path follow, to make the swam to follow a path. Everything's fine.

However, I need to have proper motion blur on the wings as they flap. Instead they inherit the direction of the body they are attached to. Is it possible to give them each their own respective motion blur?

3ds Max :: Can't Re-enable Motion Blur On Object Level

Apr 6, 2013

i created a pflow, created a sphere and set motion blur, then enabled motion blur in the render menu, by object, and rendered a frame and wammo, motion blur.

next i right clicked on the sphere and un-checked enable for motion blur, then re-rendered and wammo on the pflow blurred.

then i tried to re-enable motion blur on the sphere's properties and the check-mark won't stick.

the only way to get that sphere to blur again is to blur all objects in the render motion blur settings.

I've read the manual as well. attached is the scene file, trying to enable motion blur on the purple sphere.

i can't seem to add the attachment, i'll try zipping it.motionblur.zip

GIMP :: Creating Certain Type Of Motion Blur Effect

Sep 29, 2011

I've had trouble creating a certain type of motion blur effect. Typically, motion blur radiates outward from one single point. However, What I would like is for a whole section of an image to be clear (for instance, a character's torso) and then have the image GRADUALLY get blurrier from there.

I cannot figure a way to do this (apart from a very long process of creating many duplicate layers and doing an independent motion blur for each one).

Attached is an example of what my attempts look like right now: an obvious line around the region that I'm trying to showcase, rather than a smooth, gradual transition into the motion blur.

After Effects :: No Smoother Output When Applying AA And Motion Blur At Render Time?

Aug 31, 2013

I'm rendering at 1920x1080HD 25fps. Used the expression found on numerous threads including this one to generate whole number pixel shifts per frame.
 
t = time;fr = t/thisComp.frameDuration;x = value [0];s = 4; //Speed in pixels per frame [x, fr*s]

I generated the text and images in InDesign and exported as a PDF. Imported PDF into AE. Have tried a few whole number values for s including 4 and still getting judder.
 
Generated to H264 and Apple Pro Res codecs doesn't seem to make much difference to judder.Here is my AE project with PDF. Here is output as H264 (40MB).
 
Also included a Quartz Composer file .where I created the same whole number pixel movement as AE but rendering it out in Quartz Crystal I get different judder but no better. Quartz Composer previews in real time and Quartz Crystal renders same project that took some 16min+ in AE in about 30 seconds. But no smoother output — even when applying AA and Motion Blur at render time.

Any video encoder where I can down-sample say a 75 fps render to 25 fps with frame blending? Does Apple's Compressor do frame blending? What about some other app that I can get this out smoothly from. I have FCP installed but have never done a title in it either.
 
Since my Dell only has 60Hz at full native res (2560x1440) I set it to 1080p and selected 50Hz to see if that effected anything but it makes absolutely no difference to playback smoothness.

After Effects :: Motion Blur Effect Doesn't Stop After The Comp Stops Moving?

Jun 30, 2012

I am animating comps in After Effects CS6, and I'm quickly moving objects across the screen using positioning keyframes and changing size using scaling keyframes.  Most of the time it works great; but sometimes the motion blur effect keeps appearing *after* the object has stopped moving.  Not just for a second -- but forever.  It appears correct when scrubbing on the timeline, but when I render the final output movie, a non-moving object sometimes has motion blur all over it. 
 
Sometimes I can fix it by un-parenting some layers inside the comp...  other times it doesn't fix it.  Sometimes I just delete it and start over and it works.  Seems more like a bug then something I'm doing wrong.
 
I also tried on my Mac Pro tower and Macbook Pro laptop in case it was a graphics card issue; it isn't, the exact same problem manifests itself in both areas.  I did just discover that turning continuous raster OFF does seem to fix the problem--but then my vector images are blurry when I zoom in...  and that again sounds more like a bug, not like an incorrect setting.
