Build In Effect Question

I am trying to create where a series of sides where when they come onto the screen the text on the first two levels does not have an effect, but the third and fourth do "wipe in."
The problem is that I can't simply isolate the third and fourth line to be the only ones that have an effect.
Here is what I'm talking about
Slide Title (I don't want an effect for)
subheading for slide (I don't want an effect for)
text (I want this to have an effect)
The problem is that if I say "none" for effect for the subheading, then I have not been able to have the "effect" for the text.
If anyone can understand this, more power to you, and even more if you can tell me how to only have an effect for the text, and none for the subheading.
I was able to do this in powerpoint.
Thanks in advance.

Compose each line of text as a separate text block. Then you can assign (or not) a Build for each individually. So, in your example:
Text block: Slide Title (no Build)
Text block: Subheading (no Build)
Text block: The text that comes next (Build as desired)
Good luck.

How to make build in effects start automatically on slide transitions?

I believe this should be a simple answer, but it is escaping me, and 30 mins of googling for the answer hasn't led to a solution to this problem: *How do I make the first build in effect start automatically on transition to each new slide?*
I need this for a very simple presentation I'm putting together: Each slide has two lines of text; one at the top of the slide (like a question), then another on the bottom (the answer).
As I advance to each new slide, I want the question's build in effect (Scale Big, By Letter, Forward) to happen automatically. On the next click, the answer text will appear (also Scale Big, By Letter, Forward).
On the next click, it should advance to the next slide and the next question should appear with the build-in effects. And so on...
Should be simple, but it's alluding me. Thanks in advance for the help!
Cheers, Patrick

How do I make the first build in effect start automatically on transition to each new slide?
You can read about this feature in Keynote in the Keynote help menu: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Keynote/5.0/en/kyntc693f26f.html
Go to the slide in question.
Go to the Build Inspector.
Click on Build In.
Click on "More Options" at the bottom.
Click on your first build.
Change "Start Build" to "Automatically after transition".
Hope that helps.

Video Build In Effect

Hello,
could you help me pls with the following problem? I would like a video to appear in a fancy way (i.e. effects like cube, etc.) automatically right after the slide appears. It is OK to do this: I just set the video's Build In effect to Cube and "Start Build" to "Automatically afte transition". The video comes up just as I want it but starts to play immediately. The problem is I want it to play after a click. I thought I could add an action to this Build - but it looks like I can add only actions like Move, Opacity, ..., but not Start Movie (this one is only in the Build In tab).
Is there a way how to do it?
Thanks a lot
Jan

This looks like the final logo was created with several layers probably in Illustrator, then the file was most likely imported into After Effects and revealed by animating mask paths.

Advice for Building Small Network Question

Hello,
I am building a small network environment which will connect to a larger office, scalability is important. We will begin having about 30 users which will all need VOIP services. The VOIP services will be hosted by a cloud provider. My question is as of now I am looking to obtain a Cisco 2921 ISR Router and then a Cisco 2960-X 48Gig POE, and my main question is I am confident the switch can handle the power and operation of the phones but just to make sure I should not run into any problems with the router as far as forwarding the data, correct? Any other comments or suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Joe

Duplicate post.
Go HERE.

If you need help quickly... Guideline for posting an effective question.

Whenever you have a question that you would like answered, do pose that question effectively.
First, do not assume that because you have tried many, many times that your question is understood by someone else. What is obvious to you may not be for another. So please state in a very detailed and structured way what steps you have taken to cause your problem, how you can replicate this problem, under what circumstances on what hardware/software.
The fact that you have nearly given up because of your problem does not mean that someone else can readily understand this problem. When you go to your doctor and say: "I have a pain in my stomach" he will ask you a lot of questions. Same applies here. Your doctor may need to know about any medication you have taken, your blood pressure, history, etc. If you want help, be as PRECISE and ACCURATE as possible.
Second, this is a USER TO USER forum. So ranting will not help. What may help is a STRUCTURED approach to describing the problem you have.
Third, do a thorough search of posts here, on other fora and with Google before repeating what has been asked a thousand times and has worn out the patience of regulars here, who have answered your question a dozen times already. Use the FAQ and the Wiki to find answers to questions that have been posed and answered repeatedly. Do not assume you are unique with your problem. Well, you are unique, the problem you have most likely is not.
Fourth, realize that even though it may be highly frustrating to you to not be able to solve YOUR problem, by posting your question here, you are dependent on fellow editors to help you on their free time without compensation, so bear with them to help identify what EXACTLY is your problem. If you lack that decency, you may forfeit their help, so why did you come here?
Fifth, consider your work flow in light of the purpose of Premiere, an editing package. If you have problems with rotoscoping, programming with APL, spreadsheets in general, word processing on a mobile phone, importing Panda bears into a local zoo, feeding nearly distinct whales in the Alps, or anything far removed from the purpose of PP, you may be better off in posting your question elsewhere.
Last:
Everybody has to learn, has the right to ask questions and be helped.
If everybody has the decency to pose their urgent, life threatening or other questions in a detailed, structured and comprehensible way, it will vastly improve the chances of speedy and helpful replies, without the need for sarcasm, bundles of to-and-fro posts without meaningful help, just wasting bandwidth.
I know I have been rightly accused of such behavior, which was the result of sheer frustration with absolutely meaningless and often pointless questions without details, structure and the like. Maybe this can be a general guideline for posters on how to ask questions, in addition to Eddie's links and How to ask questions the smart way
The most frustrating issues one can encounter are hangs, BSOD's (blue screens of death), system errors and other cases of seemingly random erros that require rebooting, restarting or similar actions, only to be confronted with the next hang, BSOD or system crash.
These errors are often difficult to locate, due to the large variety of systems, components and driver or software versions in use. This is often further aggravated by sheer lack of expertise, understanding of what needs to be communicated in order for others to help solve the issue at hand. And that list is very long.
So, in order to make it a bit simpler for the average user who encounters these problems, follow the following steps when posting a problem:
1. Clearly describe the main problem in the topic, but be brief. Not so brief as to only say: "Help!" or "URGENT" or another meaningless statement but get to the point, like: "PP crashes on opening, requiring a reboot" or "Using DL the system hangs upon return to PP". You get the point.
2. Briefly describe your hardware, software, OS and versions in use, including disk setup, video card and driver versions, etc.
3. Describe source material, including codec (not AVI, which is not a codec), project settings and other relevant info.
4. Describe as accurately as possible what you did, what steps you took, what happened at what moment and what you did to try to resolve it.
5. Go to Start/Run, type in DXDIAG, enter and save all information to a TXT file. Include a link to that file in your post.
6. Go to Start/Run, type in MSINFO32 (or similar for 64 bit OS), enter and save the results as a .NFO file. Include a link to that file in your post.
7. Download Process Explorer , and either post a screen shot or a link to the results.
8. Make a screen shot of the results of SpeedFan or HW Monitor and include that in your post.
When you perform these basic steps, you avoid endless questions about your system and people may be able to help you faster.
If you feel up to it, take a look at The Case of the Unexplained to start your own troubleshooting.
Hope this helps to post more meaningful questions and get an answer much quicker.

Clip/effect question

i got imovie last week and i'm curious if it has this clip/effect.It starts from 0:00 - 0:09.I want to put pictures of my choice in the boxes as intros for a couple of videos i'm doing.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=tbkmDisF6r0

i got imovie last week and i'm curious if it has this clip/effect.
Not as a unified "effect." Believe you could approximate the effect using separate "still frame sequences" for each change in vector motion (i.e., change in speed and/or direction). Basically it would be a process of butting together an number Ken Burns Effects. I would probably create the main "board" at maximum iMovie '08 storage resolution (depends on project aspect ratio) in an application like Photoshop, import it as a "still frame sequence," and create the first KBE in the iMovie project. Thereafter, copy-paste the previous sequence to the project, reverse start/end views so each clip will "merge" properly, build new display vector, adjust duration to speed up or slow down the vector, and repeat this editing procedure until you are finished.

Lighting Effect Question

I recently installed PS CC and am working with some images that I'd like to apply lighting effects to. In particular I'm trying to apply the spot light effect. I see all the appropriate controls and can manipulate the individual characteristics. However, the lighting effect appears to be getting applied to the entire image (i.e., not focused to the spot outline). The effect is like a complete layer blend as opposed to a targetted effect.
I've confirmed that "use graphics processor" is selected and that the image is 8-bit RGB. This is on Win7 64-bit (Dell Core i7 w/8GB RAM and a fast internal HD).
Anyone have any ideas here?
Thanks!

Channel Changing effect question.

Question for the professionals: How can I create a “channel change” with distortion, etc. effect on Final Cut Pro? I need it for a sketch so with each segue, or scene, it looks like the “viewer” changed the channel. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Matt

Why not just follow Christina's original response - you should be able to make what you need...

Flash Builder Syntax Highlite question

When I click or finish typing a word ("String" for example), Flash Builder or Eclipse highlights every other instance of it for me.
Effectively making the word unreadable because of my color settings (see image).
What is that lovely feature called and how do I edit or turn it off.
Thank you

Thank you !
I set the ActionScript Occurences to text as "Highlighted" and selected BLACK (to match my background).
The words still flash for a split second when I trigger the Occurences feature, but then the highlight goes black and I can read them.
Thanks again.

Browser and transition/effects questions

Sorry Guys n Gals, me again!
Simple q's for you all...
Firstly, when I view browser by "large icons" is there anyway I can arrange the clips by order they were captured? I can do this as a list but for some reason cant do it in "large icon" view!
Secondly, when I apply a transition or effect can I preview it (like in i-movie) before rendering it?
Thanks
Alps

Ta Gary.
Bit of a bu**er that Apple didn't allow us to have order of capture easier on icon view!! I really dont think I have the patience to re-label all my captured clips after I've captured em!!
Oh, and after I typed the [stupid] question of "how to preview effects/transitions" I realised how stupid a question it was. I think I've figured it out now!
Now just wait for my next silly question/s............

Spry Effects questions

I have two (2) questions about using the Spry Effects script in a horizontal slide configuration.
Question 1:
In DW CS4 if I add the command <duration: 500,> the numerals turn red. I also get an error in line ???? from DW which is the line the variable is on. If I go ahead and accept the change I see the desired quicker slide in Firefox and Safari. The default is 1,000 milliseconds so I am cutting it in half. But! In Internet Explorer 7 the script locks the browser window up. Even if I revert to the saved HTML and JS files the problem still persists. This problem also occurs if I set the duration higher than 1,000 milliseconds.
This also happens if I upload the files to the Internet. I was forced to redo the line in question and copy my saved SpryEffects.js over to my working directory. This unlocked the file in Internet Explorer 7. Any suggestions on how to get the quicker response time in Internet Explorer 7?
Question 2:
In Firefox I get a border around the button that enacts the Spry Effect. I set the text decoration to "none" for both of the IDs for the images. This thin line does not appear in Internet Explorer 7 or Safari 4.0.3. My version of Firefox is version 3.5.3.
The file can be viewed here.
Thank you in advance.

I have also found that the Spry works better in FireFox than
IE7, when it comes to video
http://www.catholicmemphis.com/catholicmensconference.html
Check out this page and you will see that the Spry tabbed
menu stops the video in FireFox but not in Explorer. I have seen
this type of problem in a few forums, but know one gives an answer
to those looking for solutions....

Silent film effects questions

Hi,
I'm shooting a film in which I'm trying to replicate the look of a silent film and have a few questions someone can hopefully help me with. (I'm using FCP 4.0)
1. I'm trying to do an iris to transition between scenes, i.e. the screen will go black and the picture will diminish into a smaller and smaller circle, eventually leaving nothing but black. FCP 4 has an 'iris' transition, but it seemingly works in the opposite manner; a small circle of the next scene in the timeline (in this case an empty black frame) will start out small in the image and increase to cover the entire screen. How can I fix this to achieve the effect I'm going for?
2. This one may seem stupid and there must be a very obvious answer, but I can't figure out how to go about it. I'm trying to make a silent film title card and have no idea how to make the border that's usually around them without it just looking like cheap straight lines. Any ideas?
3. This isn't really related, but I shot using a wide angle lens and the lens is visible at the edges of the frame in all of my footage. I've been blowing the image up to about 106-108% (sometimes adjusting the center of the image) under the Motion tab in order to basically zoom past the edges of the lens in the image. Is there a better way to go about this, or is this really all I can do?
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

1. After you apply the iris transition...dbl-click it to bring it into the viewer. You'll see a very tiny arrow towards the top right of the transition interface...click on it...it will reverse itself.
2. You could create something in photoshop, or search your computer for 'matte' or 'mask'...see what's available. I know Digital Juice has gobs of them and you may have additional software installed that has something you could use.
3. You might try vignetting the entire video...again, you may find a matte or mask somewhere on your computer, or you could create one using the 'Shapes/Circle (or Oval)', from the pulldown at bottom right of your viewer (has a film frame with an 'A' in it). Once you've tweaked it, just save it out as a .tif and import for use as a mask/matte. There are a variety of ways to incorporate it, including composite modes.

Effects question

hi! i have a quick question..i'm trying to learn motion graphics and effects..how would i apply a filter to a specific part of a video in final cut? (like make a baseball glow or something like that) thanks!!

thanks! can you give a quick lesson on how to do this? i really appreciate it! < </div>
Quickest route to effects competency: Hire it done and take notes.
Second: Do the tutorials that come with FCP and Motion and LiveType.
Third: Set your expectations lower.
Fourth: RTFM. There's a great index, start with SPARK and REPLICATOR.

LPX Filter and Effect Questions..

Hi all - still somewhat new to LPX (10.0.6).
With regards to filters and effects, there's two things I can't figure out how to do:
(1) Apply an effect gradually, overtime. An example would be the EQ changing throughout a few bars.
(2) Set a start point for filters that automatically reset after a specific number of bars. I'm using the Always Rising Filter preset for the basic Auto Filter and have it set to 8 bars. The problem is I can't tell it which bar to start with. It starts at measure 5 and goes to measure 12, I want it to start at 1 and go to 8. How can I change this?
I know these are kind of amateur questions, I've googled and can't seem to find an answer. Thanks!
Rebekah

You could try automation. With a slowly changing eq for example...
Say you've got an eq over a Ultrabeat pattern you've programmed in the tracks window and you want to do a slow eq change. Have a look under the Ultrabeat instrument in its channel strip. See the thing that says "READ" in a green box? Change it to "latch".
Now, open your eq plugin and hit the spacebar to start your UB pattern playing. As it plays, move the parameter you want to change in the eq window. Hit stop. Change automation mode back to "Read". A little yellow icon should come on in the Inspector area of the Tracks window next to your Ultrabeat instrument. That's showing that the automation is turned on.
Now, magnify your view in the vertical plane (tool for this in the top left hand corner of your tracks window) until you can see the automation stuff appear below the representation of the midi notes in your Ultrabeat pattern. There should be a pull-down there that will show what you've just put in with automation. You now use that info to edit what you want the eq to do.
That was a bit long-winded, I know...but you only have to learn the procedure of putting in automation once because it works pretty much identically for any automation function within LPX.

P67A-G65 New build a few questions

It has been a while since I have built my last computer and have a few questions.
First I am using a G65 2600k, coursair vengence ram WD Sata 6gb hard drive ATI 6850 video card.
I have read that there are different settings for the hard drive in the Bios Like IDE and some other settings. what is the optimal setting for the hard drive?
Next, when i first boot up should i only install one stick of ram or can i put in both. I have seen different opinions.
If anyone else has any tips that can help me with the build i would appreciate it. I know there have been many issues with these boards but i am trying to do what i can to prevent any problems.
thanks for the help.

I have my drives set to IDE; but raid is probably the optimal setting. Note that raid does not require that you set up a raid; rather it allows for the most flexible protocol (i.e, raid will also enable ahci which allows for request queueing on sata drives). Why I did not use ahci; well I was daft when I did the install and I don't want to be troubled with reinstalling.
You can certainly install both sticks of ram; but if you have any issues then you will need to back-out to 1 to ease trouble shooting. I.e, the recommendation is that you start with 1 stick. In my build I went with both sticks and have had zero issues 'cept for bsod when the system enters sleep mode under high load (I suspect an eventual bios update will fix this issue though it could also be a windows 7 issue).
If you are going for a crossfire or sli configuration be sure to install the case cables before the vidoe cards as jfp2 will be blocked (the power led goes there if your case has a 3 pin power led).
It is probably a bit easier to plug in the sata cables earlier than later during the build; though this really depends on your case layout and how much clearance there is between the drive cage and the sata ports. Also video card 1 (if long) will sit over several the of intel sata ports. The ports are 90 degree so they are not blocked; but it is easier to plug them in first.
You should use the intel ports before the marvel ports; also it might not hurt to turn off unused devices in the bios (less wattage and less concern with drivers).
After the build be sure to run something like prime95 configured to use all the memory (torture test; custom set the memory to use) for 5 or 6 hours (some recommend 24 hours). Others recommend memtest but I've always had better luck with prime95. It is not uncommon to encounter a bad memory stick (can't really give a % but t 2+% would not shock me).
Don't overclock until testing other components (i.e, prime95). Once the system is stable be sure to enable xmp if you are using memory faster than 1333 and test again. Then bump the clock up (but not the multiplier). Monitor heat on first boot up in case the fan is not installed correctly (not sure if you are using stock or after market cooler). These cpu will auto shutdown in most cases before overheating but it is a good thing to fix
