How can you create a flying through space effect?

What would be the best way to create an effect, similar to what you see on Star Trek, where there are stars streaking past the camera? Would it work to create a small circle using a vector mask on a solid, make it 3D and put a motion blur on it whizzing it past a camera?
Thanks.

Without hijacking this thread, I want to create a similar effect of a "fly-by". I'm working on an intro for a show opener, the idea is to have video screens fly-by the camera on the left and right in 3d space. My biggest problem so far is arranging them in the composition, when I track in the camera on the Z-axis the screens behind seem to be overlaped by the front ones and don't get displayed the way I want them to. I know it may sound confusing but I trust you will figure out what I'm trying to do. I want to fly thru' a row of about 32 vidoe screens. A literal example is dollying thru' a long churh aisle or airplane aisle with the chairs on both sides of the aisle whizzing by.
Please help me figure out the best and easiest way to arrange these screens.
Many thanks!!
JIM.

  • How can you create a playlist with music and music video and play those from same playlist through Apple TV?

    How can you create a playlist on Ipod touch with music and music video,  and play those from same playlist through Apple TV?  I can download, create a playlist with both music and music video, stream that through the Apple TV with no problem.  The sound and the information show up on the TV, but when it gets to a music video, it only shows the information and "artwork".
    I also have a video playlist - videos play fine through the Apple TV, but will not shuffle through all videos - continues to repeat the same one.  I have most definitely selected shuffle in both locations - from the playlist and on the ipod video screen while video is playing.

    I finally got it... had to sync the photos with the music in iMovie, arrange the voiceover in GarageBand then export to iTunes, and then I was able to put it all together in iMovie and burn in iDVD... had a few glitches along the way but finally finished : )

  • How can you create a writable PDF document from a PPT presentation ?

    How can you create a writable PDF document from a PPT presentation ? Upper part with the image , lower part with a free space in order to take notes for students during presentation or course.
    Thanks.

    You can make a PDF file out of you notes and handouts but using the Adobe PDF printer.
    Open your PowerPoint Document then go to “File” “Print”
    Select ‘Adobe PDF” Printer
    Under slides, select which way you want to print. Note it will not print to a printer but to a PDF file.
    After then go into printer Properties and Setup PDF properties, do the following: (see second image below)
    Default: PDF/A 1-b
    Adobe Security: none (change as needed)
    Adobe Output folder: Prompt for Adobe file name
    Adobe Page size: Letter (change as needed)
    Check the following check boxes
    View Adobe PDf Results,
    Add Document Information,
    Rely on system fonts only,
    Delete Log files for successful jobs.
    Select OK
    A pop will ask you where you want to save the document. The file extension should be PDF. After giving the file name select okay and the file should popup as a PDF. Down side is if you want to speaker notes included then you will have to do another file, like wise with just screen shots then combine into one PDF document.
    I used Acrobat IX Pro. So to do this you need Acrobat IX or X Pro.
    Hope this will help.

  • How can you create a spry menu bar with no background colour?

    How can you create the first level of a spry menu bar to have no colour? I have a coloured background right now and the colour matches when you load the site in Internet explorer but does not match in Firefox. Any suggestions are welcomed on how to fix this.
    Thanks!

    Here is the site:

    I am learning with code, (obviously) so any feedback would be nice. I use dreamweaver CS4, but when I originally designed the site it was in a much older version of dreamweaver. I wonder if that could also be a cause. (besides human error)
    Thanks again,

    Thanks Wayne. I'll have to try that. Although I'm wondering, doesn't Oracle have plans to use one-way password encryption at some point? making this method of password retrieval break?
    I've also found the following article. It talks about how the OIM API can get an authenticated user session from the authenticated WLS session. It's tantalizing! But doesn't really match my use case or reveal the inner mechanics of how the OIM API gets what it needs from WLS; and therefore I don't think I can subvert that mechanism to do impersonation.
    http://fusionsecurity.blogspot.com/2013/01/authenticating-oim-apis-without-end.html
    Another approach I'm looking at, which works if all i want to do is fire up a session for one specific user (e.g. an unprivileged service account), is to use creds (username and password) stored in the WLS Credential Store (CSF). See appendix A in:

  • How can you create a contact sheet that you can email?

    I see that you can print a contact sheet but how can you make a contact sheet that you can email where receiver can open the thumbnails and view?

    Hi,
    You can either use Bridge and the Output workspace, or grab optional plug-ins for CS5 and run Ps on OSX in the 32 bit mode. (Or grab the excellent 3rd party script, Contact Sheet X, and run that in Ps. http://ps-scripts.sourceforge.net/ContactSheetX/csx.html).
    Here's a post with links to further info:

    Then looked at the (Other Brands) Compatible Phones and noticed that Samsung Star (s5230) wasn't included there
    Dad's old phone was a W302 and I found it at the compatible Sony Ericsson phones section,which means incompatibility is actually the problem.At least he can use it when driving(which was actually the main reason why I bought him the headset,because I hated it when he drove and held his phone at the same time).
    Thanks so much for your replies,I might aswell have wasted my entire day trying to figure out how to fix this,not knowing though what the actual problem was

  • How can you create a swatch from a jpeg in Illustrator CS4?

    I am trying to create a jpeg image into a swatch in Illustrator CS4. In previous versions you could simply drag the image into the swatches toolbar and it would convert it automatically. Now when I do that nothing happens. When I click on new swatch it creates a colour swatch instead of the actual image itself.

    When you say you would drag the image itself into the Swatch Palette and it would show the image itself? How would then use this swatch? Can you give an example of what you would apply a jpeg to as a swatch? The only palette that I can think of off the top of my head that you can drag a jpeg into and have the icon appear as the jpeg is the Symbols Palette. Is is possible that you were using the Symbols Palette in the past and not the Swatch Palette?

    Use global variables.
    Compare them with a constant Boolean like F or T.
    The result is true or false and then you can use it in a Cae-Loop.

  • How can you create a voice recording and save it as an mp3?

    I want to create a voice recording and save it as an mp3.  How can I do that on the MAC?  Right now I can only think of recording the voice in iMovie, but it does not have a choice to save as an mp3.

    Rather that iMovie, you may want to check our Audacity.
    It's a free, open-source audio editor and recorder.
    You can easily save a recording as an MP3.

  • HT4236 How can you create a photo Album on your iPhone and import that Album onto your computer (in my case a PC)?  It appears you can only sync from the computer to the iPhone, which is the opposite direction of what's desired in this case.

    It appears that sync'ingis pretty much one way, from the desktop to the device. If you create a folder on the desktop that is synced through iTunes with the iPhone, that folder appears as an Album in Pictures on the device.  But on the device you cannot add photos to that synced Album, so there is no way to use the desktop-based Album as an evolving target for new pictures on the phone, unless you do all the additions on the desktop software. 
    This really isn't "syncing".
    Further, if you create a new Album on the iPhone, it doesn't appear in the sync'ed folders on the desktop.
    The configuration for this discussion is iTunes 11 on Windows PC, iPhone 4S, and Windows Photo Gallery for picture editing on the PC.
    I'd like to have Albums and PC-based Picture Folders truly sync'ed.  Am I missing something or is this truly an iTunes Photo Sync'ing deficiency?

    The camera roll is not part of the sync process at all.
    You should be importing these photos to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera.  Youc an organize them on your computer and sync the to the iphone if you wish.
    The photos sync from the computer to the iphone is one way.
    The iphone mirrors the selected content of the computer to which it is synced.
