Breaking a photograph into tiled pieces

Hi - I am doing a project for a friend in Photoshop and InDesign CS3. I have a photo that I will be pulling into an InDesign document. The photo will be intact at the bottom right - but as you travel diagonally upwards to the left, the photo will appear to be breaking apart in neatly squared pieces and then falling away from the rest of the photo in jumbled shapes. I am not real proficient in Photoshop, even though I am currently taking classes to beef up my skills. How do I create this effect? Is Photoshop the only way I can create this? Does it involve creating separate layers for each "broken" piece of the photo?  I know there has to be a way to do this - but I am just not sure how! I REALLY hope someone can give me some tips!! Thanks so much . . . .  jaykayem. P.S. - I need some advice ASAP - I am on a time limit. Thanks!!

  • How do I break music files into smaller pieces to save battery life?

    Apple claims that ipod battery life is improved if music files are less than 9mb for some reason that involves having to load music into the cache more often. Most of my music files are much larger than 9mb and I would like to break up the files into smaller pieces. How can I do this using itunes? Or do I need to use another program?

    Most likely the reason your songs are over 9 MB are because they were recorded or "Ripped" In a high bit rate. The bit rate is basicly how many bits per second are played. the higher the bit rate the better the sound is in most cases. in MP3's 128kbs is CD qualidy and is the average, theres also 160kbs and 192kbs. anything above 192 most humans can't tell the difference. theres 2 things u can do, if you have the music on CD u can take the time to rip them again at a lower bit rate MP3 in iTunes or you can have iTunes convert all your songs into the AAC format. If you convert them to AAC tho, you will only be able to play them on your iPod and iTunes only.
    You may be able to find free software that will convert all your mp3s to a lower bit rate or compact them more but there are other things you can do to extend your battery. Make sure your iPods EQ setting is off, shorted the amount of time the backlight is on in the iPod settings, lower the volume while playing ur iPod will save the battery. Another thing is to make a good playlist of all the songs u like, so your not constantly switching to other songs. every time u switch songs the iPod has to spin the harddrive inside it and thats a big power drain on the battery.

  • Photoshop CS5: Failed stitching into 2 pieces

    how can I fix this one? after stitching all image, it break into 2 pieces of image.

    While water and clouds, which move between shots, prove to be particular challenges to Photomerge, I don't really see any overlap between these images at all from what I make out of the land mass on the horizon, so your result is not surprising.  Did you forget to include one of the shots?  If not, you didn't shoot with enough overlap between adjacent images.
    But all is not necessarily lost...  You could always widen the canvas, then select one half, move it to a new layer, then blend the layers so it looks continuous.  It might not be completely photorealistic to what's really out there but with a little elbow grease you could make it look pretty nice.
    Just to give you an idea...

  • HT1473 Often times when I copy a CD into my library it breaks the CD into more than one Album, all with the same name but with only a few of the songs on each. This happens whenever the CD has music with more than one artists...like maybe duets.

    Often times when I copy a CD into my library it will break my CD into multiple albums in my library, each with only a few songs.
    Usually this is because there might be songs where the artists has other artists in the song.
    How can I compile all of the different albums (all with the same name by the way) back into one as was the original disc?

    Generally all you need to do is fill in an appropriate Album Artist. For more details see my article on Grouping Tracks Into Albums, in particular the topic One album, too many covers.

  • I have an extensive aperture library on my computer's hard drive and I want to break it up into separate smaller libraries on external hard drives.  How do I take projects from one library and add them to another one?

    I have an extensive aperture library on my computer's hard drive and I want to break it up into separate smaller libraries on external hard drives.  How do I take projects from one library and add them to another one?

    Coastal,
    Frank gave you the exact answer to your question. 
    However, I would like to ask if you are indeed asking the right question.  Do you really want different libraries?  The implications are that you have to "switch" libraries to see what's in the others, and so that your searches don't work across all of your pictures?  If so, then you asked the right question.  If not, you may be more interested in relocating your masters to multiple hard drives so your library gets smaller, instead of breaking up the library.

  • Breaking one track into several fluidly

    I did a live recording all into one instrument track using the internal microphone on my Macbook. It sounds great, but I'm wanting to produce a CD from it and track each song individually.
    My problem, when I segment the show with garageband and then export each song to itunes, (and yes I was very careful to cut at the exact to the hundredth of a second)there is a 2-3 second pause at the end of of each track while it shows the meter still moving.
    I want the entire CD to play as if the listener was sitting there at the show, with the added advantage of being able to skip to the 6th song if they desire.
    Thanks to anyone who can help me out!

    I'm having the same problem, so how did you solve your issue. I spin a 1 hour set into garageband as 1 track and I want to go back and break it up into several tracks. I went to the other link but i'm new to mac so i didnt understand how to do it.

  • Is there a script (or plugin) that will take a photo and break it up into parts?

    Is there a script or plug-in out there that will take a picture and break it up into various parts (squares for example.)  The idea would be that you could automate and rapidly create a photo collage of a single image.  (See examples of what I mean in attached pics.)
    Thanks!
    This image has been resized to fit in the page. Click to enlarge.
    You get the idea.

    OK, I'm going to edit this post now that I'm at a computer with an actual step by step.
    Create a new comp the size of you our final delivered project.
    Add a photo to the timeline
    Note the size of the photo and the scale to position the photo at it's final resting place
    Calculate twice the height and width of the photo and create a new solid that is this size
    Place the solid above the photo
    Create a mask in the solid at the exact center that is the size shape you want for your photo frame
    Either invert the mask or set the mask property to Subtract to reveal a small portion of the photo
    Set the solid as a alpha inverted track matte for the photo (you should now see only a portion of the photo
    Add a rectangular shape layer with only a stroke to act as the photo frame over the mask. You may have to use two shapes or create a mask on a shape if you want to simulate polaroids
    Make the shape layer the parent of the solid you are using as a track matte so the matte will stay lined up with the frame
    Here comes the fun, select all layers and duplicate them using Ctrl/Cmnd + D
    Immediately hold down Shift + Ctrl/Cmnd + } to move all duplicates to the top
    Select the top shape layer and move the shape layer frame into a new position
    Pre-compose the top 3 layers
    Press the y key to select the Pan Benind or Anchor Point tool and move the pre-comp's anchor point to the center of the top frame
    Repeat step 11 through 15 until you have arranged your montage (it might be a good idea to have a template set up as a guide layer so you know where to put the frames
    Select all pre-comps and press Alt/Option + P to set a position keyframe for each pre-comp
    With all of the keyframe selected move them down the timeline about 3 seconds
    Now, with the CTI at the first frame drag each pre-comp into a starting position for that frame
    Preview and adjust the timing, then turn on motion blur
    Your images will now assemble themselves into the final montage.
    There is no script that I know of that will do all of this automatically, but it would not be too hard to write a script that would do the pre-composing if you have a ton of these to do. I'm guessing that with a little practice you could have a new picture frame created and moved into position in less than a minute. It takes me about 30 seconds. That means a 20 frame sequence should take you about a half hour. It might not be worth writing a script unless you have a ton of these to do. Select the bottom three layers and duplicate (Ctrl/Cmnt + D), group them at the top (Shift + Ctrl/Cmnd + } ), move the top frame layer into position, then Shift + Ctrl/Cmnd + C to pre-compose, then move the anchor point of the pre-comp, then do it again.... When you're done set a few keyframes.
    As I said, you could write a script, but you'd need a different script to move each frame into position and the script would only work for one layout. If you made a template to put on the bottom so you knew where do place the frames and which order you wanted them you could do this by hand very quickly. The sample project that I'm including which was just quickly thrown together took me less than 10 minutes. Replace my photo with one of yours and you'll get the idea.

  • Breaking a pdf into multiple pdf's

    I have a 250 page pdf.  each page represents a departments information.  Is there a way to break apart that pdf into single pdf's but using part of the file to name the pdf?
    for example, if the first report has a title that contains department 123, I could extract that page and name it department 123.
    The only want I know how to break a pdf into multiple pages is to use the document / extract pages and select Extract pages as seperate files.  But when I do this it uses the name of the exiting file and adds a number to it.

    You will have to select a subforum, e.g. Creating, Editing & Exporting PDFs, or Acrobat SDK (since you probably need to write the functionality you want by yourself).

  • How to divide different pictures into pie pieces so that they fit together in a circle

    I have six photos that I need to divide into pie piece shapes so that they fit together in a perfect circle. How do I do this??

    Draw a unilateral triangle (all angles are 60 degrees therefore) with the shape tool and use it as a vector mask on the images or as a template for a selection. Copy&paste as needed and rotate in place, then add a circle on top to cover up the unwanted parts.

    I have so many pictures in my iphoto library that I'd like to share on gallery. However; I find that as I upload more and more picture, the gallery takes too longer to load. I am wondering if it is possible that I can break the gallery into smaller segments and put them on separate pages? If so, how ?

    shakur:
    As users we can control how many photos we put in a single gallery but not creating "pages" of galleries. You could create an iWeb page with the galleries on the page like this. But once you bring up any gallery by clicking on it, if you go to the main gallery you're in the same situation waiting for all the items to load.
    But the first visit to the web page would not be dependent on loading the galleries.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Breaking up text into multiple fields

    The data in a field that I am reading contains something like
    this :
    Los Angeles, California 99999-0000
    What is the technique to break it up into three separate
    fields, so that a field name city would contain Los Angeles,
    a field name state would contain California, and a field
    named zip_code would contain 99999-0000 ?
    Thanks for any help.

    Is it possible to have each field separated by a comma? Space
    delimiters won't work since not all cities & states are one
    word (ie. New York, New York) however a comma delimiter would allow
    you to use simple list functions to extract the data.
    If this isn't possible but the data is always in the format:
    city<comma>state<space>zip, then you could extract the
    city using comma as the delimiter and then extract the zip code
    using the ListLast() function with space as the delimiter which
    would leave you with the state as the remaining text. This would
    only work however if your data is consistently in the format
    described above.
    Failing this you could build two tables with states and
    cities and then use them to identify valid states and cities and
    extract the data that way.
    cheers

  • Breaking 1 clip into many clips

    My project (over 1 hour long) consists of many 40-year-old super 8 movies. Half were digitized into a proprietary Sony format, which had to be converted to a format iMovie 6 HD could use; half were already in an iMovie HD6 project. They were then combined into one file in iMovie HD 6, and exported in .dv format for use in iMovie 11. However, iMovie 11 imported almost one hunded clips as one clip. I now need to break it into lots of clips so I can edit very dark spots, blown out spots, and bad color, and add music. iMovie 11 help says I can break 1 clip into only 2 or 3 clips. Help please!
    Thanks in advance for any solutions.

    I would recommend that you break apart the big DV clip using MPEG Streamclip.
    Here are the details.
    Download and install MPEG Streamclip from Squared 5 (free).
    Start MPEG Streamclip
    In iMovie, Right-click on your long event clip and select REVEAL IN FINDER.
    A Finder Window will appear. Drag the highlighted clip to MPEG Streamclip.
    If MPEG Streamclip offers to fix timecode breaks, say yes.
    You can make smaller clips by using MPEG Streamclip. Move the cursor to the "in" point of the clip, and press i. Move the cursor to the "Out" point of the clip, and press o.
    IN MPEG Streamclip, Use FILE/EXPORT to DV
    Optional: If you know the date and or time of the footage, name your file
    clip-yyyy-mm-dd hh;mm;ss
    (let mpeg streamclip provide the extension). This will provide metadata that iMovie will use to put the event in the right year and month. hh is hours in 24 hour time.
    Save the resulting files in a place where you can find it, like your Desktop.
    Go back to MPEG Streamclip, and set the in and out points for your second clip and go through the steps again.
    Continue until you have created all your clips.
    In iMovie, choose FILE/IMPORT/Movies... and choose the files you saved above.
    iMovie will generate thumbnails and you can edit.

    Ah yes school boy error there out of frustration and discontent..
    My issue is with music/apps/films etc not downloading from iTunes / App Store.
    They initially fail and message is displayed stating unable to download / purchase at this time, yet if I retry it says I've already purchased (?) or alternatively I go to the purchased section and there they are waiting with the cloud symbol..
    However some items get frozen in the download window and cannot be retried or deleted. Message appears stating to tap to retry, but even if you stole every bath and sink in the uk you'd still not have enough taps.
    I post here as the iTunes guys are useless in there 'help' and have only advised posting here or phoning apple, at my expense, to explain a problem that could be rectified by forwarding my original email to a techie. However the tech team apparently don't have an email address as they're from ye olde Middle Ages..!
    Anyways I digress.
    So I tried sync to pc, but instead of showing the file as ready to listen/use/view, the iCloud symbol shows and I'm back to square one as the item is unable to download..
    At frustration station waiting for a train from pain...
    All my software is up to date, and had all worked fine prior to the last big iOS update that resulted in all the changes in display and dismay.
    Answers in a postcard :-)
    Much love
