• After effects layer mask Question.

  Hello

  
  I am a novice and will try to explain this clearly

  I used this tutorial as a guide for Lightsaber effects. http://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=gQ7dC0gWzG0 07:44 video, he explains how to make the effect of going behind the video using a mask... but not using his video, im using an another clip... anways...

  "Layer 3" has my video. I the effect of sword "layer 2", at a point in the timeline, I made a new solid layer with the pen tool master on "layer 1" for the effect of sabre on "layer 2" can get behind the main video image, I cut the points of entry and this (works but). "" "

  My question is, can I add another solid to the mask 'layer 1' later in the chronology for sabre effect on "layer 2" can get behind the next point, where it should get behind? ".

  The problem I had is that for this mask work "layer 1" would seem to be directly on top of the "layer 2". I tried to make a new mask solid, but as it was not directly above "layer 2", it would not work. So, I wonder how do another mask on the layer 1?

  Thank you

  Rather than add a new solid, add a second mask to your first solid.

• Cannot save preferences and select mask question

  I'm unable to use the new 2015,5 Select cc and mask button, I get the error:

  Unable to apply Select the workspace and mask because the disk is not available.

  I've deleted and reinstalled Photoshop 2015.5, when I initially installed it I deleted all previous versions of CC (2014 / 2015), but this has not helped, now, when I'm out photoshop I get the following message is displayed:

  Could not save preferences because the file is locked, you don't have the necessary access permissions or another program is using the file. Use the "Get Info" command in the Finder to make sure that the file is unlocked and you are allowed to access the file. If the problem persists, save the document to another file or duplicate in the Finder.

  It's perhaps related?

  I can put in discs from scratch, but because of this error message that appears when closing photoshop and then when I restart all drives are disabled in preferences such as Scratch disks, and I have to choose my discs from scratch once again (which will be then "forgot" the next time I'm out CC because of this error message.

  It's corrected now.

  I went to the FINDER > GO kept the alt/option key in, and then selected LIBRARY and chose LIBRAY > PREFERENCES > CC 2015.5 settings in Adobe Photoshop and then press Command/Apple and letter "I" and selected under sharing, everyone and set to READ & WRITE it was put to custom, and that fixed the two issues "

• SELECT and mask question

  Hey everyone, in the Select again and the mask is possible to rotate the screen?

  Feels probably more natural to make some choices at an angle. (Just a guess, if.)

• Clipping Mask question

  When I release the this image clipping mask, flowers and peas jumping out of the teapot. No idea how to keep them inside? Thank you!

  I had this happen to me before, and I can not reproduce consistently. You should not directly choose the outermost clipping mask. Most of the time, by selecting the whole with the regular Selection tool and releasing the mask only releases the outermost, as it should.

• Advanced masking Question

  I'm looking for an effect, but I'm not close to what a few hours ago.

  I tried different ways to go about this, but he escaped me so far.

  I have a picture of a young girl, against a blue sky.

  The original photo was against a white wall, so there is a masking layer mask let heaven surround.

  I want to have against the sky at the top of the peak, but they all show wall through to the bottom.

  Pretty simple, but I want also the sky fill the lower part of the body.

  (I think it may have to do with layer masks in a group of nesting).

  Does anyone know how can this be achieved?

  Here is a model best known (but it doesn't bother me):

  

  Two identical groups, but we need to reverse the masks in a group.

• Beginner for masking question

  I'm new to sequels and created a small simple video that has only a laptop and a background. The laptop screen has fish swimming on the side right of the screen to the left and off the screen so it looks like they disappeared. I need to hide the screen of the laptop so I do not see the fish animations take off the left side of the screen. How the mask would create so it shows what is happening in the laptop screen? Thanks in advance

  Then you will need make the background to transparent fish... is it?

  If so, put the layer of fish between the layer of the computer with the hole for the screen and a layer of computer duplicated with the mask mode, subtract the value.

  And if this simple process has left you speechless, you really, REALLY, REALLY need to go here:

• What happened with a clean workflow? AE masking question

  Hello

  I use AE and first CC 2014. In the first edition, I use dynamic link to edit clips in After Effects.

  In After Effects, I want to key on my green screen. So far so good. But I also need to mask unwanted areas.

  I am masking the grounds and see in my preview of the mask around my pattern line. But for some reason, the outside of the mask don't disappear. In my preview or Adobe Premiere via DL, not even the videos has the invisible from the outside.

  I checked the settings for the mask, it is to be added. To switch to the other settings, I get any different results on my preview screen.

  What I am doing wrong? It comes to a few basics and leaves me frustrated if I come to 6 CS to get this working right...

  Many people, sorry I aft of the rudder. I just found out that the red giant Denoiser II degraded my mask. By disabling the Denoiser, everything works fine.

  SRY Adobe for you judge too quickly. I'm going to head to other developers support now.

• Layer Mask question, please help.

  Hello

  My layer mask does not work, do not know what is happening. I use 4 CS. I want to use the blend effect so I put the photos on a white background. I click on the layer mask on each photo, select the tool brush on the picture but does not work, is either appear black or white when I use the brush paint on it. So not bad, the foreground color should be gray & white based on layer mask, but it appears black & white instead. Please see the screenshot below. Please help, thanks

  

  Hi, I'm going to try explain your problem.

  In your posted example we see that you have three layers in the layers panel.

  On each layer, we can see, on the left side, there is the thumbnail of the layer, it is a display of the actual image of your layer, then a thumbnail of the layer mask (the white rectangle on the right side).

  A layer mask works as follows: you tell Photoshop to show or hide the actual parts (pixels) of the layer with the grayscale values. Indicates a white pixel on the layer masks Photoshop to display the area of the image with a (non-transparent) full opacity, while tells a black pixel on the Photoshop layer mask to hide the layer completely (0% opacity.) Gray values will therefore partially show the image data.

  But you paint on the document, and you must specify Photoshop if you want to paint on the image (what you did in your example, and you don't want to) or if you want to paint on the layer mask (what you want to do). This indication is called targeting. It is simply done by clicking on the thumbnail of the layer or the layer of your layer mask thumbnail. (By clicking on different areas of a layer in the palette layers are different orders, you give to the program). For example, if you want to move the layer that you hide to another, in order to paint on his mask, sure to click on the layer of the other layer mask thumbnail in the layers panel.

  In Photoshop CS5.5 and earlier versions, you'll see that a layer or its mask is targeted because there will be three contours around her: a black, a white and a black once again, as the actual layer data in the highlight 0928 your image layer. You should see these three contours around the layer mask to paint over it.

  CS6 the target indicator is different, look in my image, we can see that the layer mask is targeted with white corners: I then have the part of the black layer mask by targeting the layer mask in the layer panel and then paint on the image where I want to hide the layer.

  

  If you want to change the layer (photos, in your case), just click on the thumbnail, and you're ready to go!

  I hope this helps.

• Very strange masking question...

  Well, here are links to two. Separate swf. One of them has a mask, there is no (as indicated by the name of the SWF in the URL)...
  
  The 'buttons' are all MCs where the bottom layer was a highlight in green and the upper layer has the text of the button (dynamically loaded from an XML file). No idea why add a mask would remove the text of the buttons (but still keeping the Green highlights)? :

  Is all your whole lifetime values? Whereas you just need to add ': 00'? If so

  SELECT to_char( dur ) || ':00' dur

• Case Rotobrush & mask Keyframe Question

  Hello

  I wanted to just make sure that the sample here is a case of Rotobrush.  Of course I've never used before, but I want to retain the color, (excuse the mask of shit), I created in the water in the first shot, of the sequence of cuts throughout.  When the woman is moving on the aquarium, I'll need to rotoscope it correct?  Any tips?  However, I will be reading the manual!

  http://Vimeo.com/39579490

  And the mask question - I should know this, but for some reason, (in another comp), my rearranged mask shape helene.  It was the same tank that you see above, but it was a dolly shot and the tank has not changed shape!  You will laugh but I ended up resetting the points of mask in 291 frames, and it still does not like variations in forms of mask created a flicker after applying the correction of color, levels etc..

  I wouldn't be able to go to the end of the model.  Draw the shape of the mask I want, keyframe mask shape; then go at the beginning of the comp - set the position of the mask and the keyframe again.  Please tell me where I'm wrong!

  And; is there a way to keyframe a "transformation" of the shape of the mask over time?  Basically, change the size and shape of the mask, I couldn't make this image by image.

  As always, many thanks for all the advice, patience and knowledge.

  Best,

  Jesse

  Tops is just another word for anchor points / nodes in the path. Not sure I understand the rest of your post this late in the evening. My brain is pretty chewed... You can move masks in their entirety by double-clicking on. This will call up the free transform box. Therefore, it would be a simple way to keep all proportion. AE can have an infinite number of masks per layer (well 9999 or so at least) and they even Boolean modes for more fantasy. This is not different from that of PS, in fact its even more versatile since you can reorder the masks and change their lifestyles without invoking obscure keyboard shortcuts. I recommend that you look that up in help. During the follow-up, you would connect the solid position, since points in AE mask themselves are not easy to follow. Yet once, find it in the help or study a good tutorial (such as Mathias Möhl).

• Audio problems and mask when reading not on no FULL quality

  Win 10
  I7 6core
  GTX980 4GB - had the same problem with the previous cards + latest drivers are used and have had the problem with older drivers.
  32 GB of Ram
  Body CC2015

  Working with and reading Dragon RED 6 K images on the timeline, the audio track falls inside and out. The meters also stop working when audio is de-energized. It matters little if the audio is the zero song recorded on the RED or if it is external audio synchronized to the top. The issue seems to only happen when the playback quality is not set to FULL quality, what quality is set to FULL rear audio playback perfectly reading Dragon 6 K sequences in real time is a bit beyond my machine if it isn't really a viable option. The question goes as far if I disable the layer with RED film and just play the audio layers so the audio recorded appears to be very well.

  According to the other forum posts, I tried compliant audio to a drive other than the one with the RED film. I also tried to move the audio to another drive as some have suggested that the issue was on the HARD drive that contains the images RED 100% reading. None of these options worked. I can never remember running into this issue Edition and playback of images of RED EPIC 5 K. And did I not the audio problem when working with lower resolution files.

  I also met other issues in trying to work with the Organization of reading other than that of the TOTAL quality. The use of masks on effects GPU accelerated often causes the whole layer to move off the coast of the viewer project or black glitter during playback. When stopped everything of fine. A quick fix is reading quality INTEGRAL, but once again this is not always possible according to the number of applied Visual effects. Also the engine of reading mercury to the software not 'fixed' the issue of the mask, but it's not really useful in practice. Have had the problem of masking for a long time and initially, I thought that it was related with colorista III, so I grew up with the red giant. They were able to reproduce the issue and noticed that it happened with the other native Ppro GPU accelerated effects, meaning that it was a body does not issue a colorista problem. Support red giant apparently passed on the issue to the agency team, but that was back when colorista 3 is out and still no solution.  

  
  Let me know if you need more information.

  See you soon,.

  Update: CC 2015.2

  Masking question can be solved when you right click on the viewer of the program and then click left high quality playback.

  Still no update on the audio issues however.

  Update 2: CC 2015.2

  Audio is de-energized is more if you delete the audio tracks of RED Dragons. Only play .wav files under the Dragon pictures with audio in sync, I no longer get audio drop-outs. This may apply to other codecs as well.

  First step: good audio sync with the zero track.

  Second step: remove the audio tracks of cameras.

  For me, that stops my audio stall and not to come back.

  Update 3: CC 2015.3

  High quality playback is at the origin of files PNG away from their intended position and also no longer works as it did in 2015.2. Not sure about her work at all TBH.
