Best way to "zoom out" - have an object appear further than shooted?

I need to shoot a clip on a green screen where 3 people will be faking walking.
Then I will superpose it on a desert background pic (have it).
As I do not have a large room, (and do not wish to have a 1 sq. mile of green screen)... : is there a way (effect) in Premiere that would allow me to "zoom out" the shot - in other words, to have those 3 people smaller than the real shot so they seem to come from far in the desert ?
(Let's face that the further I can be from the subject with the camera will be approx 12-15 feet).
Thanks,
Rob

Best way to fade out multiple tracks at the same level

Is there a best way to fade out multiple tracks at the end of a song? I have read the manual and understand fading "A" track, but not if my song is ending and I want to fade out all tracks equally.
I thought I could export the file as a wav or MP3 (like I would do if I was fading out an Apple loop), then bring it back in and fade the track I import it to, but wanted to know if anyone else had any tips or tricks they use.
Thanks
RH

sigh...don't people search forums anymore?

Did the Mac come with two grey disks when new? If so, use disk one to erase the drive using Disk Utility and then re-install the OS from the same disk. Once installed, quit and when the new owner boots they can set it up as a new out-of-the-box Mac when they boot it up. The grey disks need to be passed on with the computer.
If you need detailed instructions on how to erase and re-install please post back.
If the Mac came with Lion or Mountain Lion installed the above process can be done using the Recovery HD as since Lion no restore disks are supplied with the Mac.
The terms of the licence state that a Mac should be sold/passed on with the OS installed that was on the machine when new (or words to that effect).

Alternatively more information about the system and the needs of the system might prompt alternative ideas some of which are likely to be better than others for your particular implementation and system constraints.

Is there a way to zoom out the viewing window of mac applications?

Is there a way to zoom out the viewing window of mac applications? I know for sure in safari I can zoom out, but it reverts to the original size as soon as I close out the window. I would really like to do this in safari and mail.
Thank you.

Try system Preferences/Accessibility/Zoom.

Best way to export out of AE to burn in encore.

I have a screenshot of my AE comp settings. I'm done with the project and would like to export out of AE now and burn a disc. I'm not sure about a couple things.
1. What is the best export settings.
2. I have Encore, but I'm not sure what's the proper way to burn the disc.
Any help is really appreciated.

I'm using CS6 on MAC. Would you still recommend Quicktime Animation based on my deeper explonation below?
The AE project has images zooming in and out. Please see the screenshot below.
Once the image of the dolphins zooms in and takes up the whole screen, then it fades to other pictures. Those pictures pan and zoom. Then the image zoom out and the process starts over for the next thumbnail. It's basically a slideshow.
Once it cicles through all the thumbs it plays a video clip. Please see the screenshot below.
With all this said I want to burn a DVD of this project at the best quality possible. Please let me know what is better. Open the AE project in Encore and burn from there? Or Export out of AE as a Quicktime Animation and then burn with Toast or Encore?
Thank you for your advice!

Best Way to store references to other objects

Hi there,
I want to design a class, that has several references to other instances. What is the best way to store such references within the class? As a vector? As a Hash-Table?
What I need are:
-get a certain element in this data-structure fast (let's say the fifth)
-be able to list all elements referenced
-delete a certain element (e.g. 5th one out of 10)
What I do not necissarily need is:
-to be able to search if a certain object is referenced by this one
What do you propose?
Any ideas?
Thx
Karlheinz Toni

Any thoughts on hashtables etc?
I used them in an application where i needed to get
objects quickly. It allowed me to get the objects
based on a criteria instead of by the object itself.
It was really useful for me.Use HashMap instead of Hashtable. HashMap would also work but you can't get element 5 unless you use the element number as a key. If you do use the element number as the key, it's kind of like using a List except it won't renumber itself, which you may or may not want. For example, if you remove element 5 from a List element 6 (if it exists) becomes element 5. If you remove key 5 from the HashMap you just don't have an element 5 anymore i.e. the map will return null for get(new Integer(5));

Best way to implement application level persistant objects?

I'm designing a J2EE application and want to create some objects that represent lookup tables in the database. I would like these to be static objects that get created either at application startup or the first time they are called and remain in application scope globally for all users/sessions. These are objects that contain lists used for drop-downs/listboxes. I don't necessarilly want to take up unecessary memory
and take a performance hit for each session by creating them new for each session. The question is what is the recommended design for this scenario? Should these be implemented as static Stateless Session beans with an application scope? Are there any examples on the best way to do this in J2EE?
Thanks.

You can simply (and properly) implement the Singleton pattern. Then multiple threads can all query the cached reference table values in the Singleton. Now, I know, that Singletons and J2EE are supposedly no-no's, but sometimes the easiest and simplest solution really is the best one. Perform the database query at startup in a static initializer. Then ensure that you do not have mutator methods (e.g., removeXXX(), setXXX(), addXXX(), etc.) Only provide accessor/getter methods. If you want to be able to refresh the cache without restarting the server, you will have to think about race conditions. But if you are implementing a vanilla cache, I would go with a Singleton.

Best way to draw thousands of graphic objects on the screen

Hello everybody, I'm wanting to develop a game where at times thousands of graphic objects are displayed on-screen. What better way to do this in terms of performance and speed?
I have some options below. Do not know if the best way is included in these options.
1 - Each graphical object is displayed on a MovieClip or Sprite.
2 - There is a Bitmap that represents the game screen. All graphical objects that are displayed on screen have your images stored in BitmapData. Then the Bitmap that represents the game screen copies for themselves the BitmapData of graphical objects to be screened, using for this bitmapData.copyPixels (...) or BitmapData.draw (...). The Bitmap that represents the screen is added to the stage via addChild (...).
3 - The graphical objects that are displayed on screen will have their images drawn directly on stage or in a MovieClip/Sprite added to this stage by addChild (...). These objects are drawn using the methods of the Graphics class, as beginBitmapFill and beginFill.
Recalling that the best way probably is not one of these 3 above.
I really need this information to proceed with the creation of my game.
Please do not be bothered with my English because I'm using Google translator.
Thank you in advance any help.

Thanks for the information kglad. =)
Yes, my game will have many objects similar in appearance.
Some other objects will use the same image stored, just in time to render these objects is that some effects (such as changing the colors) will be applied in different ways. But the picture for them all is the same.
Using the second option, ie, BitmapDatas, which of these two methods would be more efficient? copyPixels or draw?
Thank you in advance any help. =D

Is there a way to zoom out further than the website's width?

Especially in android browsers some websites have really big fonts etc. so that very few content can be shown on the screen without scrolling around. To get a better overview of the site, is it in any way possible to zoom out further than the width of a web page? I can pinch zoom out further than the site's width but it will zoom back in again as soon as i let go of the screen.
The only alternative at the moment is to rotate the tablet vertically, because then, when zooming out to the site's width, it is of course displayed a lot smaller.
I really wonder that there's not more people that find the inability to zoom out really annoying. okay, android made its start with smartphones where the main focus is zooming in, but still...we got 2k displays in our 10inch tablets and we make no use of that resolution at all...

I'm afraid that this isn't currently possible.
There are a number of desktop Firefox add-ons that will allow default zoom out options. For example [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/default-fullzoom-level/ Deafult FullZoom Level]. It might be worth asking if they plan to bring their add-on to Firefox for Android.
I hope that helps.

What is the best way to lay out color-coded Excel data in InDesign?

I’ve been away from layout for some time. I now need to lay out color-coded Excel data (3 columns, 200 rows) in InDesign 5.5. The data will need to be in alpha order and each row will be color coded, with a color key at the top of the page. What is the best way to lay this out? Should I use the table tool and create a new style for each color that I need to use?
Thanks for your help.

I think this will work in CS3.
Start off by inserting Styles of WEEK, Mon to Friday (as per left)
Set the Week No. to Bullets and Numbering and insert as per screen shot
Do the same for Days Monday through to Sunday
Also set up Monday style NEXT STYLE to be Tuesday
When you get to Sunday - loop the Styles back to WEEK style.
Then as per first screen shot you just have to insert RETURNS all the way down to initiate the style.

Best way to lay out this scrapbook

I need some advice about the best way to go about this. I have a client who basically want me to publish her scrapbook. It's full of all sorts of color and b/w photos, drawings, newspaper clippings, you name it. I was thinking I should scan each page (8 1/2 x 11) as a separate pdf, then place each pdf as a separate page in the ID document. After about 10 pages or so the ID document is so bogged down that it takes half a minute just to nudge a frame. I hate to think of what things would be at 200 pages. Even if I divided the book up into 20 or 40 separate documents then reassembled them as a book, it would probably be so unwieldy that I wouldn't even be able to scroll the pages. Once this is done it has to be submitted to the printer as a pdf.

What the client has done is lay out her original photos on a piece of 8 1/2 x 11, xerox it, then type captions next to the xeroxed photos, then attach the original photos over the top of the xeroxes. Two pages are then placed back to back in a clear plastic sleeve, which, along with another 199 sleeves, goes into a ring binder. I’m laying the book in ID (CS3, btw) because I want to add page numbers and some of the pages need to be centered or otherwise moved around so that I can maintain the printer’s minimal margins (the typing and placement of the illustrations on the original page sometimes goes to the very edge). Also, as I scan I'm trying to cut out toner shadows and other blemishes on the original pages. I’ve been scanning using my scanner’s software (Epson Perfection V200). The setting for the image quality of the outputted scan is 24-bit color at 300 dpi (pages with just text are scanned as black & white, 300 dpi, pages with only black & white photos are scanned as grayscale). If I want to do more editing (like cleaning up more blemishes) I open the pdfs in Photoshop. That way I can also change the color mode to CMYK before I save the file. Should I be scanning directly into Photoshop, then? I don’t scale the pdfs in ID because I know that can affect the resolution. I’ll try making tifs instead of pdfs.

Best way to clean out a hard drive.

I have a A505 S605 Satelite laptop with a hard drive full of junk. I would like to start over by cleaning out the hard drive completely. After the hard drive is cleaned out, I will install everything using the recovery disks that I got from the Geek Squad when I bought the computer.
What is the best way to get the hard drive wiped out? Thank you for your help.

Just back up the data you need to keep onto a usb thumb drive or usb external hard drive then run the Recovery Disk to restore the system to it's factory out of box state. IT will wipe the drive as part of the process leaving your system exactly as it came to from the factory. You don't need to delete anything first.

Best way to call methods on similar objects without an interface

Hi,
I have two objects that i need to iterate, they both have the same method i need to call during iteration, but those two objects are from different libraries and i cannot change them to add them as implement interface...
   for (Iterator it = documents.iterator(); it.hasNext();) {
           Document1 document = (Document1) it.next();
           document.getName();
But I can also get a documents's collection where the object is Document2 and not Document1 that also has getName(), what's the best way to implement this? I mean i know i can just add if conditions to say if (instanceof) do this or that.. but I don't think this is good as everytime there's a new type of doc i'd have to add one more...
Any suggestions?
Thanks,

You already know what you need to do. You just don't want to do it.
You can't treat two (or more) instances the same if they aren't the same. Here are three methods:
1. Add code (like you propose) to determine which type you have
2. Create your own classes that extend those classes and have your own class implement your own interface that has the 'getName' method. When you create instances of your own class the constructor can have code that determines which type you have and then use the appropriate 'getName' method. Your app code would use your own classes instead of the ones from the libraries
3. Use reflection to call the 'getName' method.

What is the best way to send out mass emails on an iMac?

We have been using a different system and sending out emails on a PC. I now need to send out a newsletter to our database and, having used one of the templates on the iMac need to send it out on my system. Can anyone advise on the best way to do this? I have updated the iMac to OS Yosemite 10.10.1 version

Create a group contact in Apple Contacts.
For examples, you create a group called business with as many email addresses inside. On your Apple Mail, you just type business, you will be able to send out the group emails out!!!
