By combining AFX and Photoshop you can make an undetectable foreground or background matte to add detail or scene details without a lot of difficulty.

Photos of the sinkhole nearly a block in diameter in Guatemala City after Hurricane Agatha this weekend. At first I thought they were CG fakes!

'Whatever goes on the 'Net Stays on the 'Net'. Hopefully all of the knuckleheads who 'lemming like' say to themselves, 'This will just be private between me and 'X'' Yeah 'X' meaning the 'unknown number' used in advanced mathematics. Here's yet another story of a young woman who 'Thought' (not necessarily the operative word) that a private photo sent to her deployed husband via an app on her iPhone would just be between them. She was wrong.</p> <p><a href="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21134540/vp/36908435#36908435">iPhone photo leaked to web</a></p> <p>Bottom line (no pun intended) is;  if you don't want to share something between you and the millions of 'huddled masses' (in front of their computers that is) DON'T PUT IT ONLINE OR SEND IT VIA CELL PHONE! </p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/photos-from-fcp-to-be-printed#post-57475 Fri, 16 Apr 2010 14:46:55 +0000 JeromeH 57475@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>How to move photos from Final cut pro to be printed on a post car.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/3d-camera-mapping#post-55476 Mon, 22 Feb 2010 10:10:59 +0000 composite1 55476@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Here's a video by Vallette Thierry showing how to map a photograph to a 3D object and then simulating a camera move. This is a really cool technique if you're pulling your hair out trying to build virtual sets for greenscreen. Now I've seen a similar technique built in After Effects, but this one is pretty direct. Now I'm not sure what 3D program was used, but the technique should be fairly simple to duplicate in other programs. If you're too broke to shell out for a 3D program, you can get BLENDER for free.</p> <p><a href="http://vimeo.com/6098805">camera map</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/user1763039">VALETTE Thierry</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/import-of-high-quality-still-image-into-premiere-pro-cs4#post-52140 Thu, 12 Nov 2009 05:42:00 +0000 bigsplash 52140@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p> In Premier Pro 7 I have imported still images and then zoomed in / out, and have moved the images across the screen in all directions to give the illusion of a moving picture. The drawback is that the image size / resoloution is limited to a maximum of 720x 576 pixels within Version 7....Does anyone know if this is different for Premier Pro? </p> <p>I want to important high quality images taken on a Leica M8 camera and converted in Adobe Lightroom 2.5, followed by Adobe Photoshop CS4 both of which I own. </p> <p>The alternative way is supposed to be to buy Photodex Pro Show Producer which is tailored to high quality still images yet will accept video clips and sound track also. Although I suspect the video clip needs to be edited befor importing (Not sure about this).</p> <p>The end result is supposed to be a high quality slide show with slides (high quality stills) and video interleaved with a soundtrack from the original video and music mixed in. </p> <p>I'd appreciate any insight on the above ....Many thanks.</p> <p> </p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/phoenixclipscom#post-42043 Tue, 09 Dec 2008 14:39:53 +0000 Aspyrider 42043@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p> New animations, music and footage has been added to <a href="http://www.phoenixclips.com">Phoenixclips.com</a>!
