How to use the camera layer.

Hello, I use Adobe AE CS4 in my 32-bit of Windows XP computer.             I downloaded a few youtube tutorial and followed very closely and I have a project to make what is 95% complete. I'm stuck at the tool camera layer, I want the camera to follow every word of the philosophy that I have inserted in the project. Could someone tell me how, I did with the background, light, text, now the last would be the camera layer. How can I achieve that. Any help is greatly welcomed. Thank you.

Just set keyframes for the camera and move it. You can set the values in the timeline panel or use different views to adjust the position of the camera. Please search the help files in the animation of a camera. We cannot give you much better than advice without knowing what tutorial you follow.

  • How to use the camera application

    original title: using the camera application

    According to me, that there is a photo on Metro Screen App.  Is there a documentation or a tutorial on how to use it and what it is for?

    When I click it, I see three small icons in the bottom right...  Camera, Timer and video options.  I don't know what to do with them.

    I see me, looking me in the opposite direction, that seems odd.  I found a folder in my pictures, to my surprise, with pictures of me and two videos! I think that pictures should occur when I click on the screen, but I have no idea how I created a video or how to do it again.

    This looks like a fun app but I need help to use.  I couldn't find anything in the help files.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    MaryLou

    Note: I probably don't not select the category of app so if not, please move this where it needs to go.

    Dena, regardless on the computer because it is an external Kodak camera.  I know how to use the camera itself, but the camera application that appears on the screen of metro is NOT just easy to use.  It shows 3 small icons, one is a timer, the other is for the videos and I forgot what the other one was for.

    In any case, I finally thought to it.  To use the camera, you click on it, then you must click on the screen to start the camera going.   I'm not sure that the timer is for, but again, once you click on the timer icon, you click on the screen to start the timer.

    My camera screen is not screen mode have won 8 metro.  The camera works fine via desktop applications.  I have it working in the version of Win 8 of Skype as well.

    I like to win 8 but it is so lacking in the documentation that it is difficult to learn to use the new ways of doing.

    Thanks for the reply but as I said... has been resolved.

  • I don't know how to use a light layer in After Effects CS4

    light layer.pngHello

    I work with a lot of layers of texts and it is very trendy to put a thin layer on the text at one time or another, it also seems to be really good. But I looked on the net for tutorials and may not know how to use the light layer so that a light passes through a text from one side to the other. It looks like a flashlight through the text. I go to the top and choose > layer > new > light.

    What is the color of the text changes (the part that is not shined on). How can I change the settings so that the color of the text does not change? Do you know video tutorials to use for a light coating?

    Thank you for your time!

    You might need two layers of light: ambient light to get the layer set a general spread of the light, then a spot light to create a moment strong.  Adjust the specularity and brilliance of the layer will also give different results.

    If you try just to create a strong general time that rolls through the text, try instead the plugin CC Light Sweep.  Also, applying a layer color ramp can create the illusion of some effects of light.

  • iPhone iOS version 9.3.1 6s (13E238) how to give permission to the application to use the camera?

    I have a new application of wine and she requires access to my photo library for photo of wine bottle labels to rate wines. Where is the privacy > settings? I have on my iPhone go to settings > privacy and he says, Apps that have requested access to the camera will appear here. In settings > general > restrictions I have camera without restriction, and in the settings, I have the app in question, delectable 'allowed' to access to cell phones and camera data. I can not yet use the camera to show delectable wine, I ask to be evaluated. So what I'm doing wrong?

    I just checked with the delectable app on iPhone and it still says: "this application has no access to photos or videos" and you can activate membership privacy Setttings. There are no. privacy settings in my settings of the iPhone.

    However, this question seems more associated with iOS app, you can try a forced reboot. I contact the developer of the app and ask them for suggestions.

    Force restart:

    Hold down the home and Sleep/Wake buttons simultaneously for about 15-20 seconds , until the Apple logo appears. You will not lose anything

  • How to use the slider to avoid movements of keys?

    Hello

    first of all, I must say, I'm not a native English speaker, so please forgive me in advance. In any case, I want to solve this particular problem: I created a project in After effects, where you can add your own text, logo or anything else in the composition... What is the after effects project does, that it transforms your text or logo in metal 3D result. Also cooked up camera which moves from one position to the other. Take a look:

    The text of the inscription is "add content" (I have 4 cameras together, but I shows an example only on the first, so that you will not see the full text. The rest of the cameras are also in other publications)

    firstone.jpg

    Here you can see the exact movement of the camera. However, if someone inserts a logo or a text, which for example has 7 letters (in the next picture, it is just "content") it will look like this:

    secondone.jpg

    Here you can see how much space we have. Also, it is not appropriate to change the original size of the text in the composition to achieve the smallest gap, as we can see here. The height will be huge.

    If I could change it by myself, I could do this:

    -I'd clicked on the "2 views" button and choose display in the "front".

    -I want to select all the keyframes and after that i would go into the left window 'front' and the mouse I would move all the camera to the position I want to:

    thirdone.jpg

    The great thing about this, is that as I've selected all the keyframes and then define the line red on one of them, the cameras works even at the beginning! So that's how it will look after the fix.

    fourthone.jpg

    What the problem is, that, after the small edit I want to send this project to a small number of friends. Then, they can easily set their text or logo in. The text must at different heights, width... it will be shorter or longer. I was just wondering if you could help with some phrases, joints and so on, for in the end result, one of my friends might move with the whole camera (not only with a keyframe) using the CONTROL SLIDER. At least for x and is the axis, if the z axis is also possible, it would be awesome. Also, it does not matter the sliders how there will be .

    So basically with the help of sliders, they should achieve:

    fifthone.jpg

    So I need some useful measures. Please help me. It is very important to me. I will be so grateful! Really! (Thanks for the potential aid )

    You're average over the thought of your problem and potentially headed on a path that will cause more problems that it solves.

    If you have a camera that is already busy road and you want to change the position of the camera as a path together the best way to do this would be to create a null value and parent then the camera for the null value. Pass null and all camera movements, you have put in place will follow. None of the expressions are required. It is the best way to change all aspects of a trajectory, turning the entire path, the path to the scale or move the path on any axis.

    If you really want to use 3 sliders position to move existing keyframes to a new value value + the values of the expressions will allow you to do. Just add a sliders control of three expression for the camera layer (or any layer as the null that you use as a parent) select the name of the cursor in the ECW and press on enter and rename it. Something like this will be the result.

    Note that I also rotation and controls are resized to this configuration. Now that you have 3 sliders, you can separate the position property to null in individual values allow expressions in each property, and the value type +, then use the pickwhip to drag your cursor named which (in my example) value of X and repeat for each operation. The value + will add the value of the slider to the current value of the position of the keyframes. The expression would look like this for X:

    value + effect("x position")("Slider")
    

    If you want to use the sliders that I would use a null value, add expression controls to null to keep position, scale and rotation, the unified camera position property and then use your sliders control of expression of the null value to change your existing path. I suggest not to do it directly on the position of the camera with separate X, Y and Z values because it will change the shape of your camera path and would be more difficult to control. You'll probably also want to create a POInull camera and use this preset to bind the point the camera of interest for the null value.

    Here's a preset , you can apply to a null value which will give complete control to the trajectory of any layer animation make you the child of this null. Search Animation preset in the field of search After Effects help, if you don't know how to use, create them, then save them.

    As a final gimme, here's a project CS6 using this animation preset to control the position of null is used to change a path animation camera.

  • Need help as soon as POSSIBLE (using the camera)

    Hi guys!

    I'll get right to it... I am brand new in Adobe After Effects, but I think I've adapted it greatly to this day, but I'm stuck on one thing.

    I'm following this tutorial from AETuts +:

    http://AE.tutsplus.com/tutorials/motion-graphics/design-rhythmic-motion-typography-in-AFTE effects-r.

    I did everything in the tutorial correctly until now, but I am stuck at the part at 10:05 in the video.

    I put everything in place as it does in the tutorial. I created my camera, my null object, linked the camera to the null object, put my text and object null for 3D, etc, etc.

    However, notice how in the video when he slides the position of the camera to zoom in, mine won't do it for some reason any. On my CS5 version my screen looks almost exactly like its done, but when I click on my Null object, press 'P' and scroll to the zoom camera in my words, she just NOT will zoom in.

    I see a box on the outside of my video, which I think is illustrating the level of zoom of the camera, but it's the only thing that moves. It is not really zoom in or out on the video itself.

    Here is a picture of my that my set up looks like right now:

    http://img98.imageshack.us/img98/6227/adobeae.PNG

    I'm in the middle of this tutorial, so all immediate responses are greatly appreciated! Thanks for the support.

    Sorry for the lack of communication. I will answer for my iPhone. Siri gets all the words right.

    I didn't remove the parenting, I meant that people sometimes get parenting upside autour. During the validation of the screenshots, it is easier to use the camera icon bit at the top of this dialog. Makes them easier to find.

    Here is the other thing that may be wrong. Your text is not a 3D player. I suppose that the text is in the demo. The demo is a 3D layer, but the collapse of the transformations is on if your text is interpreted as what it is, a layer of 2 - D.

    Disable transformations of the collapse, or let the cop before a layer 2D and make your and nested text layer 3D. Or, if you really want you can have the two 3D layers.

  • Send to compressor: how to choose the camera

    Hello

    I apologize if this is a really stupid question, I'm quite new to Motion 5.

    If I am not mistaken, with send to compressor, using the multi-passages option, and other compressor optimized parameters will result in the export of better quality, if this is true, it's the method that I would use for my final exports.  (If I'm wrong, please correct me and let me know which will give the best final ProRes 4444 60 fps 1080 p export - I then import them using FCPX and do a little cut etc, then exporting to h.264 final 60 fps 1080 p).

    Anyway, to my question, how choose them which camera I want to export?

    I choose 'Export using compressor settings,' and then I give myself the opportunity to choose which camera, but I no longer like the options of compressor, where I can choose to use multi-pass and all other settings.

    I tried selecting the camera that I want to export, and then "Send to compressor", but that does not work, it does not use the camera, I chose.  I have a total of eight cameras, so to choose which device I export is quite important for this odd project.

    The answer could be made obvious, once again, I apologize if this is a really stupid question.

    Thanks in advance for any thoughts.

    (Motion 5, compressor 4, El Capitan)

    If you use 'Export using compressor settings' this essentially load presets created in compressor without going into the application, so it has minimal options for adjustment.  What you want to do, you should be able to create a preset in compressor with the settings you need.  Then moving when you use "Compressor to help export settings" select your preset and in the Render tab, there is the section of 3D rendering, you can select the camera you want to copy.  By default, it should be 'Active Caméra', but you can select your other cameras as well.

  • I'm not clear how to use the recovery CD

    I added all the space using my HDD is it comes about 12 GB, I have 27.9 GB of disk space, but my drive has only 1.80 left disk space. I made clear to solve this problem. Basket is empty, I ran disk cleanup.

    A computer expert suggested that Windows might have become confused and cannot recognize what place I save, it might be because I ran a program called Cyberscrub often. His solution is to reload Windows XP home. My laptop came with recovery discs, everything else is already loaded. I have so much I don't want to lose on my laptop. If I use the recovery discs, I will lose everything on my computer, am I better off buying Windows XP home and re-load, in which case I will not lose my job?

    Also I am not clear how to use the recovery discs, I can't find instructions on what you are doing.
    The only person who could help me went to travel and not reachable.
    Any help greatly appreciated
    Lorraine Hart

    It of a very simple to recover the laptop.
    Just boot from the recovery CD and follow the instructions on-screen ;)

    I put t know what version recovery CD you have, but the older one provides the standard and expert mode. In expert mode, you can choose you partition where the OS is to be installed.
    So in this case only the selected partition will be formatted!

    But have you checked the size of the HARD disk in disk management?
    Simply click on the my icon my computer and choose manage.

    Of course, you could remove the internal HARD disk and it could connect to the external USB HDD controller. Then, connect the drive HARD to the second PC and you record data on another HARD drive.
