Glow eye versus the RED eye

Why isn't anyone talking about the GLOW eye or white eye that the iPhone 4 gives off, it's not a RED EYE, and it happens a lot! So if this new feature is supp to fix the RED EYE will it ALSO fix this GLOW EYE white thingy that shows up when using the flash? It's most annoying and if this new update fixes this on BOTH i repeat on BOTH someone please let me know!

hmm... yeah, I'm not being very specific. Red, white, glow. Guess I'm not sure which is which. I have a pic of my cat who's eyes are shining like green LEDs - I'm guessing this what you mean by glow eye:
Red eye is red eye. No question there.
What I saw from the iphone photo, which I thought you were referring to originally, looked kind of pale and could not be removed properly with the aperture red eye tool but was cleaned up nicely in the iphone with it's own red eye tool.

How to accomplish the glowing eye effect?

Hello fellow Motion 5 folks. A Motion noob here. How do I get the glowing eye effect similar to what was done here:
http://youtu.be/GqQ5i3sTg5A
I tried searching all over the net for tutorials in doing this but came out empty handed. Most of them were for After Effects which I do not use. Anyway if someone could tell me how to do it or at least point me towards a link of a tutorial or a book that could get me up to speed on this effect, that would be great. TIA!

Here's an outline for how to do this effect, it should get you close enough to do what you need. BTW, this is how I would approach it, that doesn't mean it's the only way. You will need to be familiar with:
Motion Tracking
Bezier Shapes
Blend Modes
Keyframing & Animation
If you haven't already, check out the Motion user manual sections on these topics, they go into deeper details than I'll give here for how to use and control things.
-Use the Analyze Motion behavior to track the eyes. If you plan to do mimic what's happening in the example video, I'd do a reverse track since the eyes start out closed. Track each eye, and then go back and clean errors in the track if needed.
- Once you have the tracking done, use the shape tool and create a bezier shape for each eye. Make the shapes fit as close to to the border of the eye and eyelid as possible.
-Apply a match move behavior to each shape and reference the Analyze Motion behavior. The shapes should now be tracking to the eyes., but depending on the camera movement, head movement, or blinking, the shapes won't always match, we'll fix that next.
-Turn on animation recording, and at the first frame and the last frame, adjust the bezier shapes to fit the eye, this will give you the start and end points for the shape animation. Now go through the shot and look for "extreme" movements,( the end of head turns or tilts, blinks, etc). Continue to adjust the shapes to fit, but not on every frame. Try not to create too many keyframes so you get a smooth animation. At this point, you are basically rotoscoping the shape. While doing this I usually turn off the layer, so you just see the shape outline and control points. Turn off the animation recording when done.
-For each eye, change the shape color to blue, red, green, whatever you want the main glow color to be. This will create the foundation shading like your example clip (blue edge glow glow). Go to the Blend mode for the layer and change it to Add or Screen.
-Duplicate the layer, change the top copy to a lighter version of the original color, or almost white. Don't use white, that will limit control for later steps. Change the blend mode to Screen.
(Here's where things get fun)
-Add a blur or feather the shape for the bottom, darker colored layer. As I mentioned previously, this is what will primarily affect the color part of the glow.
-Now you can continue to duplciate either the colored or light shape layers and play with the blur or feather to adjust and build up the glow. When set to Add or Screen, each layer will make the overall appearance brighter. Here are a few additional suggestions possibilities to play with.
-If you want the pupils still visible, use screen and adjust the brightness of the color, or opacity of each layer.
-Use different amounts of blur or feather for each shape layer. As I rule of thumb, I always use at least 3 layers for glows. Just don't go to heavy, remember, subtle always looks better.
-Try slight variations in color and brightness for each shape.
-Have fun experimenting!
Good luck!

Where is the red eye correction tool now?

Can't find it anywhere. Why did they remove it? (iphone 6)

Can't find it anywhere. Why did they remove it? (iphone 6)
In the Photos.app. When you select a photo and click "edit", there is an eye icon at the upper border of the panel. That is the "red eye" correction tool.

In iphoto 6.06 I make the red eye changes, it appears to have worked, but when I open the pic again the red eye is back. Advice?

In iphoto 6.06 I make the red eye changes, it appears to have worked, but when I open the pic again the red eye is back.Advice?

As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

I get Black Eye instead of removing the RED EYE.

The old "red eye" system was sooo simple & easy to use. I am probably doing something stupid. On auto it seems to do nothing. Manual makes the eyes black, bad enough BUT if the spot is to big I get a big black eye. It seems the system is designed to cover up the red with black instead of removing the RED. Can this be true. I hope not. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Warren:
No, you're not doing anything wrong. There are types of redeye that iPhoto just doesn't handle well at all. When there's a lot of yellow or orange in the color it just doesn't work as intended. The manual way also just puts a black disk over the eye.
Try using the redeye tool in manual and then apply the Retouch tool, sized to the black circle, to the the black area with one click. That can soften the effect a bit.
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 created 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 and Leopard. 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.

Why dont I have the pet eye function in the red ey removal tool?

I saw the tutorial regarding pet eye removal. That tool does not show up when I go to the red eye removal tool.

Hi,
If you select the Red Eye tool in version 12, the Pet eye should be a tool option at the bottom.
Is it not there?

My iPhone 3Gs shuts off when I try to use the red eye remover in the phot edit option after I got the latest upgrade

When attempting to edit a phot I pushed the red eye removal tool. The iPhone went black and the apple logo appeared. I had to hold down the power button for about 5 seconds to turn it back on but it never completely shut off this happened the next 3 times as well. It happened after I updated to 5.1

Are you running modified software on your phone? This error seems to be common if the firmware has been modified and you're trying to restore the phone again.

Is there a way I can auto fix the red eye in all photos in my library, rather than fixing each individual photo seperately?

Hi,
I have lightroom 5 which I use to edit photos taken using a ringflash around my canon 60D. The ringflash causes subjects in the photos to have red eye. Is there a way you can auto correct the red eye over all the photos you import rather than using the tool to edit each individual photo separately?
Cheers,
Tegan

The short answer is: no.
And I don't *think* there is a longer answer - but maybe somebody knows better..
Sorry,
Rob.

Is it dangerous to look at the red light in the headphone jack?

I recently purchased an early 2009 model white MacBook. Today I was installing Windows on it and I noticed a red light coming out of the headphone jack. I thought there must be an LED in there to help you locate it in the dark. I was curious about it so I crouched down next to the computer and looked inside the jack to see what the deal was.
At the time I didn't know that there is such a thing as an optical audio jack. Obviously I now know that's what the red light was all about. Now I'm wondering if looking at that light could have injured my eyes. Is it a laser, an LED, or something else? Does anyone know how dangerous it is to look at that light? I looked directly at it from close range for perhaps 3-10 seconds, with eyeglasses on. I don't remember it seeming uncomfortable to look at.

Thank you both for your replies.

To the best of my knowledge, that light shouldn't be on when the port is empty.
Yes, my understanding is that that light should only ever come on when there is a Toslink mini-plug adapter inserted into it (or at least a regular 3.5mm analog plug). However, like you said, I've seen a number of posts on the internet about that switch that turns on the digital output (red light) getting stuck in the on position (even without having plugged in a Toslink adapter). My understanding is that in my case the light came on because I was in the process of installing Windows and the driver for the audio hardware hadn't been installed yet.

As far as harmful rays, I doubt that it would be harmful because I've read about this audio problem before but never with a cornea damage attached to it.
I did look inside the jack directly at the light. I think it might be the retina that would be at risk if anything, but in any case, I sure hope nothing was damaged.

The power for the lasers used for digital audio is very low.
Is it a laser?
JoeyR wrote:
Especially if you didn't find it uncomfortably bright.
I don't recall having a reaction that it was uncomfortably bright and then having to force myself to look at it. If it had seemed uncomfortable I don't think I would have continued to look at it.
I don't think I actually became concerned about it until I found out that the light is for digital audio output and wondered if it is a laser. Not that I recommend looking right at a bright LED either. But I wasn't expecting a bright LED either (let alone a laser) -- like I said, my first thought was that there must be an LED inside to make the jack easy to locate in the dark (I was in a darkened room at the time.
JoeyR wrote:
If you've ever, even very briefly, had a low power laser pointer hit your eye, you'd realize it is super bright.
Fortunately I haven't, but someone who did have a laser pointer aimed at their eye told me they noticed it when they felt a burning sensation on their eye.

Any damage would almost always be nearly immediate. If you haven't had a problem, you're fine.
Do you think any damage would be readily apparent right away, in the form of pronounced discomfort or noticeable vision problem?

How do I make the red-green-yellow icons and the text in window title bars larger?

The title text is a little too small to just see - I have to concentrate on it to read it - and I can't tell the red-green-yellow icons apart without staring at them. Yes, my sight is quite poor; I'm already sitting as close as I can.

sorry about the slang display portal, i just mean the entire screen, like a magnifying glass. There is probably a keystroke, and it's probally all in here:
I do agree it's a concern, as I have a torn retina, and my eye gets strained quickly.

I retned a movie from Itunes using my I phone; however, I can't see the movie listed under videos, nor does it appear in my I tunes library on my laptop. on my itunes store app, there is a "1" inside the red dot that is blinking.

I rented a movie from Itunes on my Iphone; however, i can't find where to watch or view it. The movie does not show up in my videos or movies yet ther is a blinking "1" in the red dot on my Itunes app on the bottom right of the screen over the "more" tab? any ideas on how to get to the movie?

ah, ok yes i did do that last night. I just did it again and relized that ther is a "Downloads" tab. I selected it and stated that there was a download error. I'm currently retrying it now. and it is now showing in my videos.
thanks for helping me focus a little more to get where I need to be.

Greetings, I am working in Final Cut Pro 7. In the timeline some clips show as offline. I tried going to sequence and reconnecting to media but it does not work. I can still see the video in the timeline and work with it. It just has the red box.

If the clips are not actually missing, you could try to refresh the timeline by using cmd-0 and then going to the timeline options tab. Then select name only where it says "thumbnail display". Press ok to accept the change, then repeat the process to add thumbnails back to your timeline.

I did a software upgrade today and got a failed error Now all I get is picture of a data cable with the red Itunes logo. Restores and updates all fail now

I tried to update my iPhone 6 to the newest version today. I got a message that the update failed. I now only see a picture of the data cable and the red iTunes picture. All updates and restores fail.

I had a similar problem with one of my phones yesterday. It went I to recovery mode. I could not get it to complete the restoration process. I had to restart my computer in order to complete the restoration through iTunes. I don't know if that will help but it is worth a try. Good luck.

I have lost the red firefox tab in the upper left corner and now have a different configuration how can i return to the standard layout?

i was having trouble syncing my iphone the sync button did nothing under the red firefox menu somehow i got a different configuration which reads file edit history bookmarks yahoo tools help found sync now under tools but have no clue as to how to return to the layout depicted in your tutorials

Right-click on a toolbar, then click on the "Menu Bar" entry to de-select it. That will hide the menu bar and bring back the Firefox button.

How do I cut on the red line?

On my time line I can pause my clip right where I want to cut it and theres that red vertical line that runs through the timeline but when I go to the razor tool its free moving and I want to cut exactly on the frame I have the red line paused at. How do I do this? Also, if I have a bunch of clips on my timeline and I want to shift them all to the right so I can insert a clip, how do I do this?
