• Implementation in mosaic of images and animations

  Hello!

  Let me start by saying that I am a novice at web site design. I have a little bit of experience in the development of web pages with a very basic (and very limited) understanding of HTML and CSS. I dabbled slightly with programming in general, but I don't have any deep knowledge or experience. I'm an Illustrator and animator, who needs to rebuild a website from the ground up, but I don't want to take shortcuts. I would like to learn how to properly develop my site in Dreamweaver.

  I started the study, research and practice to bring together basic pages. I wrote some wireframes and have an idea General of what will be the content of each page. What I would like to ask the community, it is a guidance and advice to help me achieve a particular goal. Below is a picture to help explain what I'm aiming towards, followed by an explanation.

  

  The image above is one of several pages that I aim to create. Not all pages like this, but I chose to develop this one first because it is likely to be the most complicated page, that's why I would like to address it head on to help me learn.

  The basic idea is to have a background in mosaic with animated content that is placed on the mosaic model. Ideally, I would implement several sprites tiled in order to keep the scheme being too repetitive, but for now I'll keep it simple and one image of tiles. Animation assets will probably be gifs, unless someone wishes to suggest an alternative solution. To clarify, the active animation will be frame by frame traditionally animated content that will match the positioning of the different tiles. Animations will also have transparency and would ideally lead to different eras. I usually animate in After Effects and Photoshop, but I'll happily lead in something else (like CC animate or Edge animate) if he will provide me with the proper tools and solutions.

  If I had to get more advanced, I would include an element of interactivity. Something in the sense of having the animation assets change or make an animation based on the mouse position. But for now I don't know of the term. I like to keep things relatively simple because my experience is limited.

  What I'm asking, is any guidance or advice that may be useful for helping me achieve my goal of completing that single page. I hope that by creating this page, I will learn a lot of things on the way and making solid progress towards power complete the site as a whole. Whatever it is would help, because I'm not sure of what would be the best methodology to use in this situation.

  Thanks in advance for the help, and I apologize for my lack of conciseness

  Hello

  Don't apologize for the lack of conciseness, with things the more information the better.

  A lively cc file won't work properly, you want to use a number of animations and later to provide interactivity (this would work for 1 or 2 however), but the random positioning is a major problem.

  First of all, let me tell you that it is possible, however, (you knew this was coming didn't you) with knowledge only beginners html/css and no knowledge of javascript, you have a major problem. No matter what method you use, interactivity is virtually impossible without an advanced understanding of css and javascript.

  According to your animation, you can use an animated gif, or to animate a simple number of animations css sprites, this positioning randomly will require javascript, html/css has no post random number generator / integrated in the plug.

  HTML is essentially static with no built-in method to place or move anything in the html code, (it may not even submit a form for you). We have to move something in a position given in the browser viewport using css and change this position javascript.

  My advice would be to become reasonably proficient with the use of css animations, before going any further. Although when first met by many, css animations can seem complexed, is not, and this is probably your best option to start, once you have made your first animation based on this film becomes much simpler. I would recommend if extensive testing as animations more you have the less sensitive you page becomes whole.

  A tutorial on css animations can be found at.

  https://developer.Mozilla.org/en-us/docs/Web/CSS/CSS_Animations/Using_CSS_animations

  Another possibility is to use svg and animate it, but that would require a good knowledge of javascript.

• How can I get a vector-quality animation in a folio?

  We want to make very little (200 x 100 px) animations with very fine lines (1 px) and text for our folio.

  I have tried EdgeAnimate and Flash. I have not found a satisfactory solution.

  In all my attempts, the drawings have been made. When you see the folio to the iPad at 100% it's OK, but if you zoom in on this animation it is blurry.

  What would be the best way for animations high resolution for a folio for iPad?

  There are many examples of SVG animation on the web.
  Just copy the code and test it with an overlay of web for DPS.

  Just an example:

  As you can see by zooming in, the record is very clear.

• Animation - what Illustrator, I should use?

  I have Illustrator as part of master CS6, I bought for InDesign, Photoshop, and first. While using the first, I had to draw regularly on yet and Adobe After Effects, Audition, but I have yet to open Illustrator. I hope someone here can save me time advised me if Illustrator is suitable for my purposes. I'm not a professional, just a passionate amateur, but I don't want to use software quality and the equipment to do the best job that I can.

  Background

  I use first mainly to convert my audio-visual presentations to the HD format. In the 1980s, I was just in slideshows of three screens. It will be a challenge to transform a 4.5:1 16:9 format, but as my partner says it will keep me out of mischief. As part of the transformation, I will be the introduction of a small number of video clips (where my need of creation) and also short animation sequences, probably 10 seconds maximum. I have little idea of what software to use for the animation, but all the software in my collection of what Adobe illustrator seems at least to have the right name, so here I am.

  A few thoughts

  I have a friend, Steve, a watercolor and sketch artist, and he's very anxious to get into the animation. Showed me a few short films he did on his iPad with his finger. I told him: 'we can do better than that. " My idea is:

  1. Buy a Wacom Cintiq 22HD with all the fancy pens, plug it into an iMac and open the appropriate software.
  2. Sit Steve in front of the Cintiq and let it go.
  3. Steve wields the pen to generate the outline of the first image. No coloring in, not background at this point, just a "test in pencil" kind of thing. Something like the sketches of Chuck Jones for a Road Runner cartoon, except best (I can dream, I can't?)
  4. Steve could generate 24 fps for smooth movement, but we could decide to take only 12 (or 8) per second and software have interpolated for missing executives - if possible.
  5. When we are satisfied by the "pencil test", the background and coloring are made.
  6. When finished, the project is imported to the Prime Minister to be part of the audiovisual sector.

  Illustrator or something else?

  Illustrator is suitable for what we want to do? If this is not the case, what would be the most suitable software? We won't make things complicated as the 3D animations, simple - a character in motion in a context that may also be moving.

  Illustrator is not suitable for it.

  According to the style of the last animation, you can use illustrator to build assets to animate in another program like flash. but of the adobe family, flash is what you are looking for.

  I haven't used in a while so I don't know how the sketch is good about it. will touch you with vectors so there not all the charm of a pencil test. but there skins chronologies and onion and twin animated for animations of transformation as something that cross the screen, rotation, morphing, etc. scaling.

  Flash animations tend to look very steep in my opinion. the best example I can think of a flash animation, which is not without a soul would be 2d sequences in kung fu panda.

  There are programs that are better suited for traditional animation (at least in sensation). Totally forgot that I used at school. I mean flipbook. anyway. for pencil tests in my opinion really improtant is the drawing of the sensation. There are a lot of animation 2d there software but they are for the most part any vector and offer not bitmap of good drawing tools.

  at school, we used to draw on paper and photography. Some people spent about things like toon boom, which I do not remember if it is the only vector drawing.

  I chose to photoshop which is very heavy for animation because of the configuration, but fantastic for natural drawing. everyone in class thought I hosted with pencils and markers of China.

  I say that the configuration is painful because your executives are about layers. If you find yourself with hundreds of layers. I then changed the opacity of my layers of onion.  the timeline was also a pain because you really do a bit of math to get the right images per second. I ended up losing a few images in the final product. as you build your layers, the preview of the animation slows down.

  anyway. My 2 cents. FlipBook has bitmap drawing tools such as photoshop, but as I remember, they were not that great. It also allows access to photoshop to draw you into photoshop and updates of fram inside flipbook. It would have been ideal, but at the time, it kept crashing on me when I tried it. I don't know if they fixed.

• How do you see the animation double frame?

  I have a question about cadence. I'm animating with Flash hand-drawn animation, and I would like to see the framed double animation. Ideally, I'd like to be able to draw the animation single framed and to be able to view the "test movie" double box. I am aware that I could double frame animation in the timeline panel, but I don't want to do this it is because I intend to export a sequence of images that will be colored in Photoshop and wants to keep the burden of work down. For those who are not familiar with traditional animation - double framing is typically reserved for drawing on real paper; It's an economical way to animate in which the facilitator draws 15 or 12 designs which are seen double boxes to create 24 or 30 fps. Previous projects, I know that After Effects is able to double framing when the image sequence frame rate is set to 15. So any ideas on how to view images in doubles in Flash?

  There are several ways to do - also known as "shot on two" (or three) - but just move on two frames on the timeline and create a keyframe with a keyframe 'no' between them. Another way to do right is keyframe them and change the fps to half.

• Flash cc 2014, the mp3 that I imported will not play while I'm in the program

  The audio works fine when I export the file but not as long as I'm in the program. I work in an action on a mac book pro script, and the file is an mp3 file.  Initially, it worked fine but it now won't work in a new document either.  I imported it to the library and mp3 is in the same folder on my laptop as the project.  I have a lip sync animation that is due in a few days and I have never used Flash for what anyone outside the traditional animation (the variety of paper on) .all compiling advise would be much appreciated.

  Open the mp3 in hearing and resave.  This solves most of the problems.

• print an audio waveform in 2 second segments

  I need to be able to print or capture an audio waveform image in exactly 2 seconds increment segments for animation barsheet. I post after effects Forum as this is what I know best, but I am open to any third party plugin, or set of software that can do it. (We will use the pages/images of waveform of 2 sec as part of the animation "bar sheets"... we are looking for a replacement for traditional animation exhibition leaves which are heavy enough for the animators of the GC to use.)

  Thank you

  Woody

  Other than taking a screenshot I know no way to capture a waveform audio After Effects since the timeline. If you want to generate a sequence of images of an audio waveform effect then every image is going to be different. Unfortunately you can not set the model to two seconds per image rate. One frame per second is the limit. Here are the other unfortunate part of this problem. The samples you will see in the waveform cover only a single image. I think they come from the beginning of the frame so that they do not represent anything other than the first image of the sample.

  Rather than trying to make After Effects try and make this waveform I would try using Autidion.

  Here's how:

  1. The window display value to 2 seconds.

     

  2. Open your favorite screen capture application and save the current track playing and the view will change every two seconds.
  3. Bring the movie screen cap of the timeline plays in AE, trimming to get the waveform, then use time-remapping to remove additional images as audio plays so each frame is a new vision
  4. Make an image seaquence

  There you go, everything is done. You have your images, the waveforms of 2 seconds each time.

• Expression of remapping the colors at the moment of the random frame

  I work with a lot of hand-drawn loops and I am curious about the expressions that can make random display of a view of image sequences using the time remap property.

  For example, in hand-drawn traditional animation when you want to hold a pose without looking at static animation, you create what is called a trace, which means that you would trace physically at least 8 frames of the same design and then shoot over and repeatedly at random for as long, you need to ask.  In this way, you don't get the exact model of executives bike again and again as you would if you just loop it.

  Of course, you can manually rearrange frames in After Effects, but it takes a long time and I wonder if an expression can be written which could be easily changed for different sequences in different lengths and different.  For example, I found this expression by Filip Vandueren on the site Web of Creative Cow http://forums.creativecow.net/thread/227/12413 , she was destined to randomize a sequence of 5 images, however, the sequence and the model must be at the same frame rate in order to make it work.  Therefore, I have to work to a sequence of 12 IPS in a 12 fps model, if I want the animation to look like he was shot the 2s.  Usually a sequence of 12 fps without time remapping of expressions will play on 2 s if it is in a model of 24 frames per second and I can tell using time stretch or posterize time does not work.  Stretch time does nothing and posterize time crashes after effects when I add it to the when of image with the expression applied to the time remap property.  This probably has something to do with a conflict of expressions that happens once the time remapping effect is applied to the image sequence.  In any case, I ask if there is a way to change this expression so that I could put my pictures in a model at a different rate and use the expression itself to tell him to play 8 VPS, 12 FPS or any other cadence.

  This is expression of Filip Vandueren

  seedRandom(1,true);

  var t = timeToFrames ();

  var r1 = - 3;

  var r2 = - 2;

  var A3 = - 1;

  for (var i = 0; t > = i; i ++) {}

  var A3 = Math.floor (random (5));

  If (r1 = r3: r2 = r3) {}

  t ++ ;

  continue;

  }

  R1 = r2;

  R2 = r3;

  }

  framesToTime (r3);

  
  

  It is an expression based on Vandueren I tried to change to a sequence of images of 8 frame.  Any way, it worked, but it didn't really achieve what I was looking for.

  timeRemap

  seedRandom(2,true);

  var t = timeToFrames ();

  var r1 = - 6;

  var r2 = - 5;

  var A3 = - 4;

  var r4 = - 3;

  var A5 = - 2;

  var A6 = - 1;

  for (var i = 0; t > = i; i ++) {}

  var A3 = Math.floor (random (8));

  If (r1 = r3: r2 = r3) {}

  t ++ ;

  continue;

  }

  R1 = r2;

  R2 = r3;

  }

  framesToTime (r3);

  The image sequence played all 8 frames randomly without overlapping, but I could not yet understand how playing the fps 8 or 12 fps without consistent with rate of comp at the rate of the image sequence.  Ideally, I would like the expression to determine the frame rate so that I can have in a model with other frame rates and are not afraid to disturb the expression.

  Reorganization of the random images is a common thing for 2D animators to do this, I will also file a feature request After Effects to add this feature to an existing plug-in or create a standalone plugin.

  This should work:

  FR = 12; frame rate;

  numFrames = 8;

  seedRandom (index, true);

  SEG = Math.floor(time*fr);

  f = Math.floor (random (numFrames));

  for (i = 0; i< seg;="">

  f = (f + Math.floor (random(1,numFrames))) % numFrames;

  framesToTime (f);

• Quality problem of reading video/chronology in PS CS6 Extended

  Hello

  I use PS in a traditional animation capacity - each frame of animation of drawing by hand on a separate layer. I loved making this 5.5, and it worked perfectly on my machine. There are a few problems for me with CS6 that maybe someone can answer, which is very detrimental to my approach:

  My main problem is that when I read my animation film (I prefer to use the clips/layers rather that the 'framework' a version which is more limited in my opinion), the quality of the image is horrible. When I say 'play back' I mean hit the space bar and play, not making. This feature worked like a charm in CS5.5, but the quality is very low in the CS6. The same thing happens when rubbing with the playhead - image quality gets all the blocks and pixelly to research. The funny thing is, when I stop playback or stop rubbing through images, the images return to their normal state.

  When I saw that happen, it reminded me a preview RAM of bad quality in After Effects (for those of you who are familiar with After Effects) - I thought I would make sense, since AE offers a way to increase or place the quality of immediate reading (previews RAM) according to what you test in reading and the amount of available RAM you have. But there is no way to adjust the quality of reading in PS CS6 - at least not that I can find. I absoluately reading need to be 100% quality as it was 5.5, otherwise this function is completely useless for me. Does anyone have a solution?

  Also - have - they remove the "onion" button of the editing window? It's so useful... no one knows why they did (or more importantly, is there a way to get it back?) It's such a button useful for anyone trying to traditional animation in this program - that it was wonderful in CS5.5.

  Thank you

  BTW - my current computer care if it matters:

  Mac Mini, model 2009

  2.26 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo 64-bit

  NVIDIA GeForce 9400 256MB

  OSX Lion

  Hello

  The onion skin feature still exists.

  In the timeline panel fly-out (located in top right corner of the Panel), select Activate onion skins.

  Just below this menu item is onion skin settings...

  As for playback of lower resolution files high resolution, we have heard a few people that they would rather have the hi-res on the performance increase it has provided.  There are currently no way in CS6 to display playback at high resolution. We are looking in the options.

  In the meantime, I asked a technical Document created so this information can be found easily on an online search.

  Thanks for the comments,

• Captivate 5 edition error message: not enough memory

  Hello

  I am during the test program for use in our society, and I fight about this error message in Captivate.

  I ask the question here in hopes that someone has an idea if this error message is a problem of my workstation, or an Adobe Captiva 5 problem:

  

  This message occurs when to publish the swf file, after compression and insertion of labels of swf file, and save the swf file (according to the messages in the progress bar from publish window).

  The project conditions

  • 20 slides
  • Each slide contains about 5 s of captured full motion video and audio
  • 10 text captions, some zoom and 3 text animations

  I use

  • Adobe Captivate 5 (test)
  • Windows XP SP3 (Dell Latitude E6410, Core i5, 4 GB RAM)

  Tried to change some settings, close the programs, restart. Still the same message.

  This isn't a real system, old or weak. I use other programs successful here with huge images and videos, and of course I get an upgrade of the company's computer for that, this post is the last chance for the program...; (o)

  Thanks for all the ideas...

  Ulrich

  Try to uncheck the options in preferences > SWF and the quality of compression SWF size and see if that allows you to publish correctly.  Sometimes one of these preferences can trigger this type of error on a given hardware configuration.  First of all try to uncheck both, so if it works, try to tick, one at a time to see if any compression option is open to you.

  

• Animation of zoom/dolly in the map of the world, the best workflow?

  Hi all, I'm animating maps for a travel agency and they want me to zoom to a vision of the world in smaller places, like Costa Rica for example. Then animate a few lines and icons on the map in 3D. I've attached a video link of a that I already have. I work with an illustrator maptorian of the world card and import the illustrator file in AE. Can I use a camera to dolly in and making all the moves. My problem is that AE runs VERY slowly when you work with such a giant illustrator file (there must be millions of vectors). I tried to work with PNG files exported, but resolutions should be too big for them not to Pixelize (200 million pixels is not enough!) and then I met the same problems of slowness.

  A second problem I have is with the shadows. because my illustrator file imports as 2800 x 1600 when I Zoom so far (although I am rastoring) my elements are only 1 pixel above the map (or at least this is the unit of measure AE uses even with the base vector files) so as you can see in the video the shadows move around annoyingly.

  Can someone advise me on a path that I could work with a low card-based pixel resolution of the whole world and then zoom in on a small card vector space, that I need to work. Or any other ideas are welcome.

  I'm using a Mac pro running 10.11.6 with 6 core and 16 GB of ram and AMD graphics cards.

  AE is 13.8.1

  Thank you

  The illustrator file is highly textured and takes too much time to calculate, you should cut your chart into segments. I made maps of the world for many years of news and documentaries, to show the world to zoom in on a country and a city. You should separate you graphic into segments. map of the world say 4000 x 4000 pixels for example. and costa rica to 4000 x 4000. now composite costa rica on your map of the world. My guess is that you have a few places to zoom in on so just make these large sizes and place them on your map. If you have a high resolution on a large file low resolution.

  For example, this card I did. I have to get all the way zoomed between the Morocco and the Spain, then completely out to part of the Middle East.

  

  So I have this model master 1605x905px

  

  You can see the limits of layers. I carefully place one above the other and resize it down. so I have a map of the area I zoom in to 1313x922px reduced to 60%. now, because I had yet another card on top of these 2 and he had to be reduced to very low values that are more difficult to place, I created a precomp with collapse and inside, there is another card to 2356x1493px 7% nationally.

  

  This way I can cover on the other and do not have too many pixels at the same time.

  Another example more complex because it contains more elements which must be organized differently to support a fine composition on both zoomed in and zoomed in on the map.

  

  same idea. This type of card is dissolved in as I crash zoom

  

  This guy a precomp with many items I can carefully place if the composition does not suit me perfectly.

  

  Fun, right?

• animate CC animation jerky with the zoom of the image?

  Does anyone else know this? whenever I have a png or jpeg and I animate it to zoom out, it looks slick animated CC, but once published, it is very rough in all browsers I test it in. how to fix this?
