I'm trying to make a camera mapping in softimage from photoshop layers (matte painting). But I´ve a problem with the alpha channel. The layers shows a gray halo that surrounds them.
View 2 RepliesI am having a problem with camera mapping...I get everything setup and looking good, but when I render it, the image looks really washed out. This happens with both scanline and mental ray rendering. I have done this in the past using max 2009 without any issues.

I would like to make the pipe of the picture to grow from bottom to top in an animation of softimage.
I have created the pipe extruding a circle along a curve. I would like to know if there is any possibility in softimage to make the effect of appearing gradually from bottom to top like it is growing up and controlling in the frames that I want on the animation.
How can I make Displace modifier to use objects existing mapping? Because when I apply a new Displace, the modifier makes a new mapping, even if i check "Use Existing Mapping".
See what i mean? I want those "cracks" to follow uv not a displace mapping
I'm using CS6 and noticed that whenever I delete a layer that was a dupe of another layer with links (although not linked specifically to the deleted layer), the undeleted original layers become invisible on the canvas even though they are still visible in the layers pallette. I've been able to recreate this several times. Nothing I do will make the layers visible -I've tried moving them all to the top of the layers palette, making sure their opacity is 100%, making sure there are no layer effects, etc.

Just trying to work out how to have one camera affect the view of all the 3D layers in my scene. If I have a layer selected, and adjust the camera, it only affects that layer.
View 1 Replies View RelatedAccording to 'About Lightroom;
this is what I'm running:
<Lightroom 3.6, Camera Raw 6.6>
I used to 'merge to panorama', or 'open as layers' in Photoshop regularly, but today it no longer works. When I try, the message comes up: "This version of Lightroom may require the Photoshop Camera Raw plug-in version 6.6 for full compatibility. Please update the Camera Raw plug-in using the update tool available in the Photoshop help menu."
When I go to Photoshop Help Menu, 'no available updates at this time' is the message that comes up. I manually downloaded the Camera Raw 6.6, but to no avail.
When attempting to edit using PS, the program DOES open, but nothing happens... the files do not appear. They DO open individually when Edit in Photoshop CS4 is selected, but I prefer the 'open in layers' option, and often use the 'merge to panorama'...
I'm matching 3D layers in AE to footage shot with camera. When I try to work with this I seem to work with sizes that AE can't cope with. In real life a layer should be 20 meters away from the camera. When I try to set these settings it jumps back to about 12 meters. ALso the camera can't be offset more than about -12000 mm (12 meters). That's no good. After Effects seems to work with tiny sizes. (you can't use meters or even cm as units, just mm). When I look in top view in my windows everything is out of reach. can't find the camera, can't find the layers. So...of course it's me doing something wrong and AE should be set differently, but how?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a 3d scene (FBX) with a 3d camera, rendered 3d elements and filmed elements that need to be comped in a way that required some layers to respond to the 3d camera and some need to stay 2d. Because some of the 2d layers need to occlude layers in 3d space it is not practical to pre comp.
Is there way in Action to get a a layer to ignore a 3d camera or respond to a different camera? In AE for example you would toggle the 3d layer setting.
Also is there a way to make a layer auto orientate towards the camera?
Using the trial version of VS X4 I am trying to get it to recognise my Panasonic HDC-HS700 video camera so I can use stop motion and onion-skinning. It recognises my webcam straight away but not the video camera.
Have been advised by email from Corel Support that in this case I should "use import from mobile device or import from digital media to capture from this camera." Unfortunately this will only read stored images from the camera's 250GB hard drive, when what we need is for the camera to be in its still picture recording mode so that each one can be checked by onion-skinning before proceeding to the next shot.
Have also seen somewhere that a video camera needs Firewire in order to be able to communicate with VS X4. The Panasonic has a socket marked with the IEEE 1394 three-pronged symbol, but the other end of the supplied lead has a USB plug on it.
Is it going to be possible to get high quality stop-motion videos using VS X4 and the Panasonic HDC-HS700?
There's a whole lot of lost souls on YouTube asking similar compatibility questions on "Corel VideoStudio Pro X4: Stop Motion Animation".
I'm trying to make this one effect on rasterized text. The effect works best on a black background, but the background and text have to be merged or it looks wrong. The thing is, is that I want the effect of the text seperate so that it's got a transparent background. What I was wondering is if there was some way to make 2 layers act as if they are 1, without them being merged.

It doesn't grey when I open a video file. I'm tried using JPEG and GIF files as the layers, but am unsure what I'm to do at this point.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm making ID badges. I have made a template for the artwork and then added each photo individually to a box sized area. The images are already cropped to squares, but I had to resize each one to fit in the box. Then I have to make each one visible in order to save all of the images of the IDs.
I'd like to be able to add a group of images (all square) as layers to a pre-defined area and have photoshop resize each accordingly. It would be great if I could batch save the images, too and not have to hide each successive image.
Basically I have about 15 layers of images that I have to resize so they are all the same dimentions, without loosing quality, but if there are no options, I'm willing to losse quality.

If I make a change, like Invert of a filter, it doesn't apply to all open underlying layers no matter if they are Linked, Grouped or anything else I can figure out. Adjustment Layers do apply to all below, but not other kinds of changes/filters.
I have a collection of vector images that I use when creating logos. However, there are invisible layers because there are so many layers. How do make these layers visible? I know in Fireworks that there was just a box that you clicked saying "show invisible layers."
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am very familiar with the editing software I have (Video Studio Pro X3). I was wondering if there was a way to make your title stationary, while the camera is in a panning motion for instance.
For example, I want to pan right to left and have my title sitting on a tree branch the whole time stationary as if it were "in the scene" I searched forever to find an example but came up with nothing.
I do understand if this editing software just isn't capable just want to know if it is possible.
Here are a few copy merged layers, which I dragged in from another image; now I need to remove the extra stuff;
clicking on the mask icon gives the prohibitory sign.
Frame animation plays fine when played from timeline but all layers are exported stacked on top of each other for the duration of the whole animation. I'm able to see that because the layers have transparency.
About animation - 8 frames with in endless loop, imported into a timeline via 'Make Frames from Layers' command in a fly-out menu in the Timeliine window. Tweens for animation are off, 01.sec delay for all frames
I was able to export animated GIF before, wondering if this issue is tied to the latest update.

I'm makeing a demo video for an iPhone app and I have a really good PSD template for an iPhone but I'm not seeing a way to move any of the layers around. The reason I need to make adjustments is because it has a nice relfection on the screen and I need to gett the footage from the video underneath the reflection.
View 5 Replies View RelatedJust got a Space Navigator the other day, pulled it out of the box all excited that i would be able to rotate models about the center of the camera, which would allow me to get into really tight spots, rotate the model and not have other parts of the model move in front of the camera, therefore blocking my view of what i was trying to see. So out it comes, all software loaded, inventor is open with a tidy structural assembly sittign there waiting to be manipulated by my new shiny toy, and uh no. CAN'T ROTATE ABOUT THE CAMERA! AARRGGGH. right bummer.
I'm pretty sure its an Inventor problem since i know for a fact that you can rotate about the center of the camera usign this device in 3ds max. The 3D navigation tools in inventor are crap anyway, the feature of being able to rotate about camera center should be native in inventor.
using any of 3D connexions devices in Inventor and maybe they have a work around for this. I'm pretty sure i read somewhere that with practice people have been able to 'fly' down pipes in Inventor. But my experience so far would mean that once you get to a bend in the pipe and you rotate the view, you would just rotate yourself straight out of the pipe.
Can I make layers default to the top when I drag and drop into a new layer folder instead of the bottom? It annoys me that they always go to the bottom and I inevitably always need them at the top.

View 4 Replies View RelatedFor quite a while I have been using the Photoshop HDR for initial processing of my HDR shots. My workflow is to "open in HDR Pro in Photoshop" from Lightroom. With LR 3.x and CS5 there was no problem - make the initial tonemapping settings in CS5, hit "OK", and save the resultant TIF back to lightroom for further processing.
With LR 4.1 I do the same thing, the files import into CS6 and the tonemapping window comes up, but after I hit OK in the tonemapping window, the resultant tonemapped TIF file is oversaturated(This still in CS6). It needs about 30 points of saturation reduction in LR to get it back to what it showed in the tonemapping window.
I have colour gamut set for Pro Photo RGB in both LR and PS. I can show some screen captures later.
