Tips for creating hand-drawn animations

Dear all

I want to produce animations with a hand drawn feel. What is the best way to go about this?

What products Adobe would be best suited for this - I'd like the animations to run websites produced in HTML5? Would draw individual frames in Adobe and then export it to Flash and then export as HTML5?

I would use a pen to do the drawings. Does this mean I have to buy an ipad and stylus or the surface pro? Are there other options? What is the best way to produce illustrations hand-drawn in the following Adobe?

All advice welcome

Thank you

  • Troubleshooting of hand drawn Animation (image)

    I am after several tutorials for an effect of the end of a hand or writing tool that seems to draw a picture. I try to have the hand pull the image of first taking the photo and using an edge effect and followed it with the pen tool. However, I have a few problems with it so far, namely:

    1. I vectorize the image I want drawn using the edge effect. I copy the mask produced from tracing and then paste in the keyframe of the position of my hand computer. The problem here is that it masks the section of my hand.

    2 get the hand to follow the mask created on the image path. The alternative in the video tutorials for this type of effect often manually keframes the hand in position. I was hoping that the mask path by pasting in the hand position keyframes, it would automatically follow the drawing.

    Please see the image below as an illustration (click to enlarge), thanks for your time

    You paste the masks in the layer and not in the position of the layer property.  Make a first keyframe to the position, highlight and paste into the first mask; It will come in with a default duration of 2 seconds.  Go beyond the last keyframe pasted in, making an another position keyframe, highlight and paste in the following mask... and so on.

    Carefully consider the sequence in which you paste these masks.  And get ready for a large number of keyframes to get the timing right.

  • Tips for creating an application with web services please?

    I created a simple application for a client who interacts / monitors a device VISA with LV 2009.  The architecture is essentially a state machine with a timeout for VISA calls that retrieve the current state.

    The client asked that the app will also be controlled via the web and asked me to set up a demo with one or two simple functions.  I have the experience to bring charges against the Server Web LV7 model, but not with web services.

    So here's what I did...

    (1) added a line to my application that would inject actions in the state machine.

    (2) created a simple VI pushes these actions in the queue and plans to use it as the Web Service.

    And then I followed the examples for Web Services, thinking that the Web server is running in the same program as the development environment, such as the version LV7.  This doesn't seem to work.

    Could someone give me a quick overview on how best to do that, or to report an article?  I have simple working WS, but here are a few questions...

    @ Jed Davidow:

    We met this difficulty with our web app (LV 2009) as well.  Because now we feel the solution the easiest way is to activate the VI server in your main application (EXE) VI and place calls to its hierarchy of web services in the open Application > VI Open > call by Ref > close VI > structure to close the Application.

    Although we try to minimize the use of the present in web services, it makes sense for some resources shared and accessible throughout the world as references to database, configuration globals, etc.

    I also note that there seems to be an instability that we have not been able to identify which may (or not) be attributed to the use of this technique.  The symptom is LabVIEW from memory immediately at some point.

    I am currently looking into migration towards 2010 LV, and it seems that the same constraints between instances of the application are in place.  I expect that, but I was expecting some more simplified with the next version of LV interprocess communication methods.

  • Tips for creating a presentation simple iPad

    Hello

    I was wondering what are my options for a document created in InDesign on an iPad? I read up on top of the DPS, but there seems to be a lot of conflicting information out there according to the when it was written and by whom.

    Basically, we do a lot of presentations and tar in my agency, so far, they consisted mainly of boards and printed documents. What they would like to do now is give the presentation at the end of the session on an iPad for later viewing. These presentations are usually being developed until the last minute, so any version of the iPad should be as simple as exporting a file, connect the iPad and pressing a button to download.

    A few questions:

    1. they would like the presentation to appear as an icon on the screen main iPad, as opposed to a document in a standalone player application. Is this possible?

    2. the method of DPS to organize files and synchronization with servers online seems not ideal in my case. Do I have reason to say that there is still no available local sideloading functionality?

    3. the 'stack' and 'article' method of sorting the separated files seems very difficult to handle in my case, there is a way to have just a long document (for a simple presentation and printing) and then have it scroll sideways like a magazine on the iPad?

    4 lack of all this, have other options?

    Thanks for any help.

    Hi Aaron,

    Here's your answersd:

    1 NO.

    To enjoy your own icon, would go through the process of building a custom DPS Viewer and send your application to Apple. It usually takes 5 to 20 days to accepted him. Therefore, no last minute change.

    2. Yes

    You are right.

    3. Yes, sort of

    Instead of on paper long you create an Indesign book file, where each Indesign document represents a DPS article. You can print your presentation in a single click. In DP, you set your items by horizontal scanning only.

    4. Yes

    Interactive PDF is a no-brainer.

    Kind regards

  • Tips for creating a popup window while youtube clip is playing in the background

    Hi, my site Announces my band. A youtube video automatically starts us on the home page. I want to provide visitors with a couple of additional links on more information and FAQ, and it seems the best way to ensure that the information is via a pop-up window to keep the youtube video to play on the home page.

    What is the best way to Dreamweaver to creat custom formats popup boxes? And it will be blocked my most web browsers?

    I often see boxes popup on internet sites, for example to put in place a FAQ or the delivery of business information.

    Any advice would be great on best practices for the use of popup.

    Thank you very much!

    Would be unwise to put your information on the page of the main site where everyone can see it?

    Loading of the automatic pop-up windows will be blocked by browsers with blocking the windows boxes (about 98%).   If the visitor of the site launches the popup by clicking on a link, the pop-up is blocked.

    That said, the way in which open pop-ups depends on the settings of the browser of the visitor to your site.  For some, it may open in a new tab.  For others in a new window.  It is usually best to keep important information on the page of the main site where everyone will see it.

    Pop-up in Dreamweaver:

    Select a link.  Go in the behaviors panel.  Click the plus sign + and choose open browser window.  This will send a dialogue for the URL, the size of the window, scroll bars, etc...  Here is a tutorial of old, but it is still topical.

  • Tips for creating the responses with different line heights

    Some of my answers have 1 line, some have 2, some even 3 lines. Any recommendations on configuring my Quiz slide so that the boxes to resize automatically?

    Currently, I have two problems:

    (1) I need layout manually each slide where one or more of the answers takes more than 1 line. It takes some time.

    (2) I can't use "shuffle answers", because the response of the 3 line is sometimes it's original space, and sometimes it's a line a line of response high.

    Any advice?

    I try to avoid long sentences in MCQ, but if it is necessary to have several lines (you can also reduce the size of the police) and I want to shuffle is my workflow:

    • Select the legend of response with the greatest height
    • Jointly select the other legends of the response, and then in the context menu, choose Aligh, resize at same height
    • increase the height of the surrounding area (surrounds all the legends of the response, it is also possible in the Quiz slides model, too bad, there are no placeholders for the legends of the individual response it)
    • move the legend of substantive response as needed (always use shortcuts like DOWN SHIFT and CTRL-DOWN, DOWN not to disturb the alignment)
    • to reselect all the legends of the answer, right click menu, Align, distribute vertically (or use the icons in the toolbar alignment of course)

    It is a pity that you cannot apply these lifestyle changes to all MCQ don't slide, apply no button accordion format, without memory default style in the upper part of the legend of the response properties panel. This means that the process must be done manually, but at least you can mix.

  • Help to create a gif animated for a navigation bar!

    Hey guys, I'm very new to Fireworks and dreamweave and I encounter a problem that makes my head spin! I need to create a simple animated .gif to a navigation bar (which will be published in dreamweaver). The navigation bar are as follows: http://www.eden.rutgers.edu/~baronson/ITI320/Exercise2/functionality.html. Essentially, all that happens is I create this animated picture and in dreamweaver, when I create the navigation bar of AP, I updated the mouseover this image. My problem is that, compared to the image mouseover of the website ( http://www.eden.rutgers.edu/~baronson/ITI320/Exercise2/images/navi/audience_OVER.gif ) animated my gif has several layers and States, where, as its only has a single layer. I can't seem to find a way to include both text and gif image and incorporate them into the same layer.

    A follow-up to the issue after finding the way to integrate them both in the same State, I should catch every piece of my animated gif for the individual State, that I want it be applied?

    Any help/pointer to where the information would be greatly appreciated. I have read through the manuals and watched a lot of videos of Babbage, but were not able to understand this. Thank you!

    Your gif didn't need to have several layers, but he needs to have several States. To save you a lot of confusion, first create animated gifs, and then export them. Create your navigation bar in the usual way, with simple images, rolloveres or swap. The navigation bar on export. Rename the gifs animated with the names of most of the State of the navigation bar images and then remove (or mone to another folder) more images of the State navigation bar. Move the gif animations in the navigation bar image file. Preview in the browser. The animated gifs should have replaced the original state of the buttons.

  • Effect of hand drawn

    Hello world

    Does anyone know if there is a plugin/extension for Photoshop nc6 that allows you to create an effect similar to hand drawn as the example attached?

    hand-drawn-sketch-of-a-lion-vector-987915.jpg

    I'd be surprised if you find a filter or a plugin that will do it automatically, because of the clever way that the strokes follow the appropriate angles.  You could certainly prepare the original image so as to make the easier to apply squiggles/hand-drawn lines, but it will go down to apply some drawing skills.

    For example, I want to choose a second clip sections of 5 minutes, but do not want to move the points of entry/exit with the mouse in the hand. Would also be useful to several clips where 1 s/exit points have not been established

    Thanks for all the answers!

    Go to preferences and on the set of forward/reverse reading pane, for the number of images you want to move the read head (in this case 60, two seconds):

    And click OK.

    Then put your first marker, then type shift + right arrow to move the playback cursor, the number of images that you entered.

    If you type shift + left arrow , it will move the playback cursor backward the number of images.

  • Best practices for creating a new project from an existing WebHelp

    I am currently working to WebHelp Pro (version RH is 9.0.2.271).

    I have a WebHelp project that currently supports the 2012 version of one of our projects. What I had to do was to create a separate project for 2013, using files of 2012 as a starting point. I couldn't find a way in HR to create a new project by importing an existing project of WebHelp, so I copied the files of 2012 in a new directory, open the project and renamed it.

    What drives this issue is that, as a result of this exercise, all seemed well, for once. However, I recently had to create new topics in the 2012 version. However, when I imported these subjects to the 2013 and compiled project, they disappeared - even if the htm files still appear in the appropriate folder of the file 2013 (when we look at with Windows Explorer).

    After reading a few posts on the forum, I thought I might have corrupted my database by creating the incorrectly the new project-, but if what I've done, it's the wrong way to go about this, I don't know what is the right way. I will be grateful for any suggestion.

    The easy way to do this is to create a copy using Windows Explorer.

    Open the project and click file > rename.

    Then you have your project is ready in 2013.
