Editing and croping out different shap objects using photoshop version 10

Let say I have a book laying on a dinning room table. On some photo editing programs you can simply use a cuting tool like a knife to remove the item and you then have a transparacy space for another layer to shine through. On Adobe version 10 all I see is an eraser. Is there a cutting tool you can use like a pencil to cut around the book to remove it? Thanks Gary

I would make a selection of the book with something like the Quick Selection Tool, inverse the selection, then add a layer mask.
You can paint on the layer mask with the brush tool to clean up the selection or expand the selection (the area that is masked).

Is there a way we can edit and improve existing youtube videos by using premiere pro? Just simple changes like having professional looking opening and closing credits?

Is there a way we can edit and improve existing youtube videos by using premiere pro? Just simple changes like having professional looking opening and closing credits?

Assuming you do not have access to the "original" video/project and the YouTube video is the only copy, there is a method. Try "YouTube Downloader" which is a free software that allows you to download clips from YouTube as .mp4 files. You can then edit with Premiere, and re-encode again for upload to YouTube. Just keep in mind that you are re-compressing the video so there will be some quality loss. The better the quality of the original, the better the copy will hold up.

How can I remove an object using Photoshop Elements 7?

How can I remove an object using Photoshop Elements 7?

You could probably use the 8 point garbage matte in this situation. I personally think the 8-point garbage matte is a bit cumbersome, but it should get the job done.
1. Use the Razor Blade tool to place a cut before and after the shot with the bottle.
2. Select the bottle clip.
3. Press and hold Shift + Option, then drag the bottle clip up one track. This should create a duplicate clip directly above your original clip. (I'll refer to this duplicated clip as bottle2.)
4. Locate the 8-point Garbage Matte filter and apply it to bottle2.
5. Locate the Gaussian Blur filter and apply it to bottle2.
6. Control click bottle1, and uncheck the "Clip Enable" setting from the shortcut menu. This will disable that clip.
7. Double click bottle2 to load it into the Viewer. Then select the Filter tab.
8. For the Garbage Matte filter, you'll notice 8 rows of numbers, these are the current locations for the control points, which you should be able to see in the Canvas. Start with point #1, and click the "+" button in the filters area, then in the Canvas click and drag to move the point. When you release the mouse button, you'll need to reclick the "+" button in the filters tab. Repeat these steps until you've isolated the bottle.
9. Feather the edge of the matte.
10. Adjust the Blur amount.
11. Reenable bottle1. Playback the clip and make any necessary adjustments.
Depending on your experience with Motion, you might also want to try sending bottle1 to Motion, then use Motion to control the layering.

Chroma key use: Photoshop (version) or can Elements 13 be utilized?

Chroma key use: Photoshop (version) or can Elements 13 be utilized? I do not want to purchase plugs-in etc.

This is a Photoshop user forum the is also a Photoshop Elements forum. IMO If you want to replace a background on a still image the chroma key color you should use is White or Gray. When the subject is complex like hair blowing in the wind you will always need to deal with chroma key spill. White can be eliminated with blending and gray will blend and have little effect in the color. White and gray backgrounds will not cause a color cast in you exposure..
You may get a better reply in the elements forum. User there are familiar with what tools Elements has. Photoshop may have some selection tools not available in elements.

Editing a DNG file and saving it again as DNG using Photoshop

Hi everyone,
I have a set of .dng raw images which I would like to edit using Photoshop and save back out as .dng files. It sounds like a very simple task, but I have been struggling with this for half a day.
To give a concrete example, I have two dng images from the same camera. I want to copy an object from one image and paste it to the other, and then save out the output as a .dng file. This should take me like 2 minutes in Photoshop, right?
Well, when I open the files, it first brings up the Adobe Camera Raw tool, but this only lets me do very basic edits (I can't figure out how to copy an object from one image to another, let alone perform the necessary edits to blend them seamlessly.).
So I click "Open Image" to get them into Photoshop, where I can do all of my necessary edits (copy and paste, brushes, etc.). However, after I am finished and I try to save my edits, Photoshop only lets me save the output in .psd (along with other formats) but not dng. I need to save it back out as .dng, as the next program in our workflow pipeline requires .dng files as input. So how do I do this simple task?
Why can't I save my resulting image back out as a .dng file? I tried saving as .psd and then using Adobe DNG converter to turn it into a dng, but it doesn't seem to be able to do that. I also tried saving as Photoshop RAW, but for some reason the converter can't convert from Photoshop RAW to DNG. It doesn't make any sense to me.
I know that Photoshop knows my camera parameters because it was able to read the original dng files properly in the first place. So why can't I read in the .dng image make some edits and then save it? How are people editing dng files?
Thanks for your help.

Also, there is no way to turn an image back into raw image data after it has been edited in Photoshop. It would be as difficult as uncooking an egg.
I understand that this is difficult if I am doing arbitrary image editing operations, since those operations may not be properly defined in the RAW space. But in this case I am cloning pixels from one .dng image to another. Shouldn't this be possible?
For example, assume we have 2 dng images and we want to take the left half of one and paste it in the same position over the other. I am not familiar with the dng spec, but at some level it should encode the values at each pixel (perhaps with the appropriate camera curve). So I just simply want to overwrite the values of one .dng image with values at the same pixels of the other, and since it's the same camera with the same settings used for both this should be possible, right? In the worst case, I could write a program based on the DNG spec that parses the two dng files, overwrites the necessary pixel information simply using the second image's data, and then writes the dng back out. But this seems like a complicated way to do something that there should be an Adobe tool to do.
Perhaps it would help if I tell you exactly why I need this for. We are capturing raw video using the Blackmagic Cinema Camera which outputs a directory full of 2.5k dng images for each take. We were doing a take of a scene using a tripod, but an otherwise great take was ruined because at one point a crew member poked their head into frame. So I want to use information from the other dng frames to overwrite this portion of this image to hide this problem.
If these were regular images (.jpg, .tif, .exr) it would take us no time in Photoshop to use the information from the other "good" frames to fix this problem seamlessly. However, we would like to keep everything in dng format so that I can then read everything into DaVinci Resolve for color grading correctly. Any idea on how I can do this, if I can't use Photoshop?
Thank you in advance for your help!

Photoshop CC - Cannot control + click to select a different shape while using the pen tool?

I used the pen tool constantly in photoshop cs6 and would often use control + left click to select a different shape while still using the pen tool.
I'm now forced to switch to the move tool to select another layer? Why was this feature removed / changed?
Fix: After fooling around more, here is how I fixed it:
The new Direct Select Tool by default is set to "active" layers. Switch it to "all layers"
Message was edited by: Joe Horan

A new problem = Selecting multiple points with control + click + drag is selecting ALL shape layers... Jesus christ, why was this changed????
I now have to double click the shape I want to select? Why? What is the point of this?

Drag and drop between different Flash objects

It is possible to drag & drop items between different flash objects?

Yes, you can drag and drop anywhere on the stage. You'll need to explain things in more detail if there's more to your question.

You can contact iTunes support and see if they will issue a refund, but they don't have to. The terms of sale is that all sales are final.
to remove it from your device, hold down on the icon until they all start to wiggle. Then tap on the white X in the red circle to delete it. Single tap the home button to exit that mode.

Problems launching Bridge from Photoshop and opening files as smart objects in Photoshop from Lightr

I am running Photoshop CC (up to date as of today) and Lightroom 5.2. I am hitting 2 major problems. In Photoshop if I select File/Browse in Bridge I get the following message
"Could not complete the Browse in Bridge command because Photoshop was unable to find the JavaScript plug-in".
However if I simply launch Bridge as an application it works ok (now I have reset the default application for all the appropriate file extentions to Photoshop CC rather than Photoshop in Bridge preferences) and opens the file in Camera Raw 8.2 in Photoshop when a Raw file is double clicked.
The second problem is associated with opening raw files in Lightroom 5.2, editing and then trying to "photo/edit in/Open as smart object in Photoshop" . In this case Photoshop opens with a blank screen and nothing happens Eventually about a minute later this message appears in Lightroom 5.2
"The file could not be edited because Adobe Photoshop CC could not be launched."
Rather strange message as the first thing that happened was that Photoshop CC opened!!
Same thing happens if try "photo/Edit in/Edit in Adobe Photoshop CC" except that having shut down photoshop I see a message from Lightroom 5.2 saying
Lightoom was unable to prepare the selected file at ..... for editing. It will not be opened.
When I click the OK button on this message low and behold the tif version of the RAW file opens in Photoshop. ready for futher editing with all the Lightroom edits applied.
Can anyone help me in sorting out this problem please
Operating system is Windows 8 64 bit and I am running the 64 bit Adobe applications.

Solved the problems by uninstalling Bridge and Photoshop then going into Creative Cloud App and re-installing both.

Photo/Edit In... how to show my latest Photoshop version?

Hi, I need help being able to use Photoshop via Lightroom...
I go to Photo/Edit In and I see "Photoshop CC" as an option but I have Adobe CS6 in my computer instead so how do I switch which version appears there?

No. You need to have your serial number. If you don't have that readily available I can give you the link to the trial version that you can use while you locate the serial number. Then you can use that serial number to activate the trial version.
Adobe - Lightroom : For Windows : Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5.7.1
Adobe - Lightroom : For Macintosh : Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5.7.1
If you have had Lightroom installed and activated with a serial number on the computer previously, you probably won't need to have the serial number. Otherwise you will need it. The two links I have provided are for the trial versions for Windows and the Mac.

Audio and video out of sync when using quicktime conversion

hello,
i am editing a hdv project and want to export to quicktime. the client needs it in a specific size (700x394). they do not want the video in the file compressed, just the size of image. they are compressing the video through flash for the web. anyways, i used to just use quicktime conversion, custom size and use 700x394, but now when i do that the audio and video are sparadically out of sync in the product. the wierd thing is that the project plays fine in the timeline, but when i export the problem occours. i then, exported to a full res fcp movie and it is fine. then tired reexporting through qt pro to 700x394. when i did this their were no sync issues but the quality of the file was not so good, it look more pixely, certainly not as good as when i did it using quicktime conversion.
how can i export through fcp to get the 700x394 file? someone said 'use current settings' instead of using quicktime conversion? how do i do this? what do i need to do and what are my settings?
any help is appreciated. thanks a ton in advance.
cheers,
clay

What format are you converting the HDV to?
If it's animation, it is quite possible your computer can't pull the data rate. In this case it would be a processor / hard drive issue not an out of sync issue.
