Motion menu Blues

If someone could help I would really appreciate it. I am creating a fade in effect for four layers in After Effects from a .psd and who bring in again for a cool for text blurry fade-in

2 layers are my buttons to go between my two different goods. I can't get these to cooperate, after that I have back and forth between still and After Effects. Still keeps asking me to convert them to a button, but I did it several times. Any advice on the potential pitfalls I fell would be appreciated, I followed the step by step help instructions and nothing works. Thank you.

Brad,

I make similar, but only use PrPro to create the animation and use it as a first chronology play. It leads to the real Menu. The trick is to limit the animation to a few images (I found that 2-3 works well), so that the user does not have the "buttons", before they ARE really buttons.

I have the PSD layered as a sequence of import in PrPro, and then animate each layer, I want. The animation ends with the projection of the PSD, just like the real Menu will be. Play Action by the end of the first timeline is linked to the main Menu. Note: you will also want to have the button highlight appear, just as it will be when the chronology of links to the main Menu real or it seems to be a sudden 'jump', as the default value that highlight active in the main Menu real.

We could do similar in AE, but I find that PrPro gives me what I want, so I keep things simple.

Hope this helps,

Hunt

  • My motion menu background is not moving?

    I know how to do this, but it is not mobile. I have 15 second video, I used before. It is as an asset, I assign under the Properties menu, it takes 15 seconds and I 'ran for always verified"and zero'ed on the loop of the time start. I ran 'make' in the preview in real time, but it does not move. I have advanced and makes the thought of DVD that it will be provide here but no movement.

    On the timeline in the still, I can double click on the asset and it brings up a small player in the upper left corner of the screen. I hit the play arrow and he plays a lot the whole 15 seconds so I know well, a mov file is OK. Don't just move in the real menu. What Miss me?

    Thank you

    BTW, I'm still running by starting it as an administrator. Thank you!

    I wonder if that's your problem.

    The problem that I and many others learn the hard way is that you cannot add a picture as a background layer of alternatives in addition to the background layer and then add motion. Still replaces the layer below with the motion, but sees the top layer which extends upwards movement of the image. This problem also results if the layer "background" is not the bottom of the pile.

  • Motion menu BluRay renders with stutters and Red images

    I did the menus animated before on Bluray discs before, but this time, the video clip is made with stutters and Red images. I tried back during the music video for first and replacing the assets again but still the same. I tried to lower the transmission speed and tried to force again to transcode the video resource, but nothing has worked. Does anyone have the same experience or a glimpse of how I can fix this. My only guess is that it may have to do with the length that it is the longest video resource I've used in a menu at 59 seconds of time.

    "Stuttering" is as it is jumping around in the video clip... as randomly grabbing an image of one or two seconds in front or behind.

    I don't remember the details, but I think that something like this has been a problem known at some point.

    Then I try using Media Encoder to transcode a reminder instead. I will also try to reduce the maximum flow rate from 25 to 15.

    By selecting the option of the SOUL in still affects only the assets of transcoding for chronologies/slideshows when you use the option 'transcode now'. It uses a SOUL when transcoding in the building and uses no SOUL for animated menus.

    The menu is a standard file in Photoshop with a layer of background image and several layer sets for buttons (2 in the main menu, in the menu of Chapter 11). They are just text, no video clips, graphics or thumbnails. The highlight (= 1) layer is of even the text as the text layer, with an added stroke outline.

    To eliminate the need for transcoding of the motion, you would remove the 'text' layer (as in "the same text as the text layer -" a layer in the menu of photoshop that is not a = 1 layer highlight etc.) and put the video of those in the bottom of the query.

  • Lack of menu Blu Ray

    Sistema.jpgImagen 001.jpgImagen 002.jpgImagen 003.jpgImagen 004.jpgWhen I burn to disc, the Don t of the menu will appear. I have triyed to burn an image with the same results.

    Ann was right, that you seem to have an empty menu, even if you had the 'corporate' folder selected, if something was wrong.

    You seems to be used a "empty menu", so that may well have been a model yet.

    But I think that the problem that you describe is that your menu still works in preview mode before, but when built on an image or a disk and read, it starts with the timeline and not with the menu. Is this correct?

    The first thing to check is with a disk engraved in a blu - ray player. You see the problem here?

  • Create the menu blu - ray together from scratch

    Hi all

    I downloaded the demo of first elements 11 yesterday and it am assessment for purchase.

    My first project is a blu - ray concert player.  I'm on Windows 7 64 bit.

    The project settings are:

    Square of 720 p AVCHD pixels

    1280 x 720

    29.97 FPS

    offset 30 fps timecode

    I want to create a simple menu for blu - ray (IE a HD menu) which has still a background and simple text buttons.  The top menu would just "concert to play" and "track selection" text-only buttons.  The "track selection" button will lead to a page with all the track names in the form of buttons that point on stage for each track marks.  That's all.

    I don't see that templates pre-installed, and none of them have the designation "HD" in the upper right corner.  How can I make the menu I want to?

    Thanks, Ben

    I'm sorry, Ben. I have no idea why the model doesn't work.

    EDIT:

    I see that you put the text file only in the common directory. Try to create a directory of category (let's call it 'Text' for example) in the common directory and put the text record only in it.

    I just did and the text pattern does just great in version 11. You can even see thumbnail previews of the model in the movie Menus workspace!

  • How to wrap a motion menu... in full transparency

    First of all, thanks for all the info and help I got this forum lately. I'm just enter again after more use for the first and Photoshop, so while it seems familiar, there are a lot of questions bit I keep coming up with. Lynda.com tutorials are excellent, but not very good questions!

    Now my question:

    I am trying to create a menu driven loop. I followed the steps on the tutorial, create my AE via Dynamic Link composition, but they use a different effect I want, and when it's time to make the loop, I don't have the same options. In the tutorial, they use "fractal noise" effect and in the effects controls there is a setting for 'Development' and 'évolution Options' they use to synchronize the loop so, it is seamless.

    However, I use the "Wave" effect and created the movement I want, but there is no such controls for this effect. Therefore, when I come back in again and place the composition in the menu, there is a visible jump at the end of the loop.

    Any ideas on how I can seamlessly looped this motion?

    Thanks again

    Bobby

    A menu is extremely short. Haven't you audio then? I wish I had the menu last at least 30 seconds to a minute. You will then need to make your AE composition this exact length and add extra loops to the animation so it keeps the entire length of the model.

  • The Alpha channel is recognized in a motion Menu?

    I am trying to use a video from Digital Juice as my animated menu background, but the alpha channel is not recognized.  It shows the black color instead of transparency.  I am compiling in the form of Quicktime with Alpha movie.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Dave

    Lol you can use a background of movement or the background in the Menu of Photoshop, you can't use both. If you use a background of movement, the Photoshop Menu background is replaced by the video motion, and the buttons are rendered above it.

  • Question of timings Motion menu button

    Hi all

    I am trying to create a DVD that has a welcome screen opening with text and a button "go to the Menu" that leads to an animation of the title followed by some episode titles that drive both on.

    I had to have a single video file to cover the activities involved and try to use it to create my DVD (using the pickwips in the query tab). I can get the drive to run I want that up to a certain point - play through title text screen and all the way up to the list of episodes and loop and then back to the episode list constantly (never to repeat the text of the Welcome screen), but I can't understand how to add this button "go to the menu" in the text of the opening is part of the video (before the loop) that will take me directly to the list of episodes

    Is it possible to add a menu item before the loop and remove it then?

    Thanks in advance.

    Matt.

    Not to delete it afterwards using a single file.

    So the only video file that you include the homescreen?

    Alternative workflow:

    The beginning is a menu with a button that says go to the menu and the text you want.

    Then, I guess the video you have less beginning the background animations and menu button. A regular animation menu, with a loop point, manages what you want there. A time through animation opening, then (timed to the loop point) you get the regular menu (with animations of button/episode title) and buttons to select.

  • Why my motion menu require that I click 2 x before the action is played.

    I have a button with a mouse symbol on / mouse event that plays very well.  I placed that on another symbol x 3 with different text labels.  Then this menu symbol I placed on another symbol which act as my main page content when you click on the menu item.  However loading the is in place I have to click the buttons of menu 2 x so that it can activate the 2nd click causes the animation to play and then press menu bit it back and all is well.  All simply boring, you need to click the button 2 x times (I put an alert in the trials and the first click fires so I know this isn't the problem).  Page can be seen at http://www.talkingrockgames.com/estimator/main.html and my skinny code can be accessed by the following link if it helps http://www.talkingrockgames.com/estimator/main.zip

    Thank you for all the ideas driving me nutz.

    Hi Shane,

    You have 3 events: mnuEstimate.click, mnuTest.click and mnuHome.click.

    The code is: sym.getComposition () .getStage ().getSymbol("contentPage").play ('open', false);

    Need to add false to skip a step of the action.

  • Motion menu?

    Hi all

    I'm trying to find a way to make a menu nav like this:

    Antebellum.TV

    I would like to have a black bar (or image) follow the reversal? I know how to do it without the animation, but my client would like to have something like this?

    See you soon

    What specific part you're talking about? Transition horizontal bar above the menu items or the preloader animation or image etc slides?

    The horizontal shift or the bar above the menu items is possible with animation, as because with the stroke on menu value it will not even of transition or change bar.

    Thank you

  • Motion menu - link to loop point question (Encore CS5)

    I created a menu with buttons that appear after the loop point. All the attributes of the button are select only and requires no rendering "menu driven. The menu runs from the beginning and loops back to loop. I created a simple menu with a single button that connects the point on the line in the main menu using the link specify in the attributes of link button. In the link specify menu I selected the selected button in the main menu and the menu and the button appeared in the target. I checked the value point of loop and selected ok. The first menu ran to first and loop. When I chose the go-to-sub-menu button, he went to the submenu. When I chose the button to return to the main menu loop point he returned at the beginning of the main menu not the loop point. The only way I could get the SUP menu button to return to the point of loop in the main menu has been to add an attribute to the button in the main menu and make the menu. Is it a bug has the way it is supposed to work? Yet CS5

    This is a bug with the preview only. The final disk will work as you wish and will return to the point on the line of the main menu instead of the beginning.

  • How to make a motion menu "hide"?

    Hello there. I just finished my first project in FLASH Catalyst, a very simple "interactive" map: http://www2.hull.ac.uk/theuniversity/hull_campus/campusmap.aspx

    Now, I want to begin to build this modest attempt - and made them thing I want to do is create a CACHE MENU. But I don't know where to start!

    Basically I want user can click on a tab at the foot of the menu rectangulat in my card and have this menu "roll up" that simply the tab is visible. Obviously, when the user wants to see the menu they click on the tab and it will 'roll down' again.

    Can someone give me advice on creating this effect please? Thank you

    Steve

    Hi - I guess your first problem is that you're not quite phrasing your question properly - hense the lack of answers.

    What you're after (I think) is a DROP DOWN MENU that can be "rolled up" or hidden.

    Here is a link to a video on YouTube - I * think * it is from the LYNDA.COM video tutorials - and it shows a sliding navigation menu made in Flash Catalyst: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Re5qOAVkCO4

    It will be useful.

  • Is it possible to have a video loop during audio playback in a motion menu?

    Hello!

    Here's the deal:

    I have a seamlesly 8 second video clip for my menu animated looping, but the audio file for this menu lasts 1 minute. To render the time/disk space and little I'd use the video file in a loop so that the audio file for the purposes of budgeting cheek hollow in my animated menu.

    Is it possible to have the video file loop, while audio plays, trough, or what I have to do my video 1 minute of time too?

    Any help will be appreciated!

    The video must be as long too 1 minute.

    You could always loop the second clip 8 however.

    Support up to the first, add your audio clip loop & 1 minute.

    Set 2 seconds of silence at the head of the audio.

    Loop your second clip 8 8 times to give you a second video clip 64.

    This will give you 2 seconds of silence at the rear end, but there is really no other way
