How do I add accent light to my background?

I'm trying to add a little accent light to my background to improve the separation between the background and the model. I tried using the render spotlight tool which added the light where I wanted it but it turned the rest of the background black. Is there a way to add light to the areas of the layer without changeing the rest of the layer?

You should be able to do this by using a layer mask.

  • How do I add 'Traffic Lights' as sorting option?

    Hi! We use MD04 most often. We are able to set the traffic lights, however 'Traffic Lights' does not show up on that next screen as a sorting option. Any ideas on why not? Thank you for any help!  Maria

    Thanks for your response Steve, but Spier is correct I'm looking to add it as a print driver. I can export to pdf fine but sometimes when that isn't working or if I want the file to be compressed further I do File>Print and chose a printer, usually there is an option for Adobe PDF but the only option I currently have is Postscript. Looks like it was taken away. Thanks everyone!

  • How do I add a picture onto a background in iMovie?

    Hi there! So I'm making a YouTube video and I'm trying to make an outro for the video. I want the background to be white and put pictures of the logos of social media website I want in the outro. When I put the white background in the end it's fine and then I try and drag a picture onto the background and the little green plus sign appears and it says... Replace. Replace from Start. Replace from End. Insert. or Cancel. I want the picture to be on the background and I'm just not sure how to do this.

    Have you seen my User Tipp here
    "Movie Magic" with Stills and Dissolve
    When you 'prep' your stills in any 'picture app', you can do a lot of marvel by simply applying dissolves.
    In your case, I would create a white document (in Pixelmator, Keynote, Photshop, online at pixlr.com, whatever ...) and another with your logo (and further more ones with additional logos). Drag the jpgs into your iMovie Project and apply dissolves  - tadahh! - logos appear on white.

    wat all i did to add light is,
    1) adding an extra field in the main structure.
    2)create internal table with this structure as data table for alv report
    3) add 'field name' field in layout
    4) I have passed values(3, 2, 1) for green, yellow and red light resp, to the field(LIGHTS) in the internal table that is passed to alv function module.(Based on some condition)
    5) pass the layout structure layout to alv function module
    Thats it. If u do all this teps, u r done with it.
    Lemme know u solved it by giving points.
    with regards,

  • HT2523 How do I add shadow to the title of a document while in Pages? For instance: NEW YEAR'S NEEDS. I'm also at a loss to know how to create a folder for certain types of documents such as "Sermons" or "Lessons."

    How do I add shadow to a title, such as, NEW YEAR'S NEEDS, while in Pages? I also don't know how to set a new folder for documents of the same type such as, "Sermons," or "Lessons." Any help will be greatly appreciated.
    Donnie

    Yes, I very well may be over thinking this, but I tried duplicating and moving it, but the text distorts slightly, which can be mostly remedied by rotating it on the x-axis, although the light is still off. And the shadows and reflections are not visible - this is pic1... In pic2, I used "rotate 3d object" with the green and red arrows,  instead of just sliding it up the y-axis using the coordinates in the scene tab. Using the green and red arrows to move the text preserved the reflections but the shadows now aren't visible. It was also hard to align the text perfectly in scenario 2. Thanks for the help

  • How can I add new content in iDVD to a DVD-RW disc which has ample remaining free space? After preparing the new video for burning and clicking on Burn to iDVD, I get a window saying the disc's already recorded and that I can either Erase or Eject.

    How can I add new content in iDVD to a DVD-RW disc with a video previously successfully recorded on it? (The disc has ample remaining free space.)
    After preparing the new video for burning and clicking in the File menu on Burn to iDVD, I get a window saying the disc's already recorded and that I can either Erase or Eject. My assumption has been that iDVD would automatically find the free space and continue with the new recording from there. I'd be grateful if anyone can shine light on this.

    There are, but not with a DVD written as a movie disk. It must be closed when completed, or it doesn't work.
    Apple's built in Burn utility also automatically closes any data CD, DVD or Blu-ray disk you burn. Doesn't matter how much space is unused, you can't use it. You'd have to use a more advanced disk creation app, such as Toast Titanium. I then have the option of choosing to write the data as a session:
    I can keep doing this until the disk is full. If I've written five sessions to the disk, when I put it in the drive, five CD/DVD icons will appear on the desktop since the OS will treat each session as if they are separate physical disks. At any point you choose Write Disk when writing a group of data, that means you're closing the disk, and again can't add anything after that. So if I had written two sessions, and the third was Write Disk, it's over. I can't put anything else on that disk.

  • How do i add a second display desktop to my macbok

    How do I add a second display (desktop) to my macbook pro so when I swipe, there are three screen options, the one for widgets, the main one and then another desktop?

    Here are the specs for your Compaq Presario CQ5300F Desktop Computer. According to the specs, this model supports one VGA output via nVidia GeForce 6150SE onboard integrated graphics. This model also has a PCIe x16 graphics card expansion slot which will accept a PCIe x16 graphics card. According to the specs, installing a discrete graphics card in the PCIe x16 slot will disable the onboard integrated graphics.
    The graphics card you purchase must support both monitors you wish to use with your computer. Additionally, most retail graphics cards require a 300 watt or greater system power supply. Currently , your computer has a 250 watt power supply and it will need to be replaced. Please consider the Corsair CX430, CX500, or CX600 series of power supplies to meet the new graphics card power requirements.
    Alternatively, if this is mostly for word docs, spreadsheets, day trading and light video, you may wish to consider a USB-to-video adapter such as the eVGA UV Plus+ UV39 or one of the many other adapters on the market.
    If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

  • How do I add a cedilla to a 'c' in an e-mail?

    I can do most of the usual accents in French in T/bird but am stuck with the cedilla. Normally I can insert a symbol but I don't have this option on T/bird. Anybody know how to do this?

    You do need to be composing a message in the Write window, and looking at the Write window's menu. Yours sounds like Thunderbird's main menu.
    No menu? hold down the <alt> key, tap i for ''Insert'', then C for ''Characters & symbols''. Use <alt>, V then Toolbars and tick the appropriate checkboxes if you want the toolbar or menu permanently enabled.
    OTOH, when you do look at the Write menu, the lack of the Insert option means, most likely, that you're composing in plain text and not HTML. Either set HTML in the account settings Composition & Addressing page, or hold down shift when selecting Write, Reply or Forward.
    If you actually prefer to use plain text, then you need an add-on such as abcTajpu or Zombie Keys to help you çómpøsè with çëdíllâs. ;-)
    (I use abcTajpu. How do you insert accents yet not have cedillas?)

  • How do I add a grass texture to a selection in a photograph?

    Usung Photoshop CS5 Extended in Windows 7 on a PC, I would like to make a selection and add a grass texture to a field I have painted.
    I went to Filter-TEXTURE-Texturizer-but do not see a grass texture I can add to the selction like I can Canvas etc.
    1) Is there a way I can add more textures to the Texturizer? Please instruct how?
    2) I have found ways to create grass texture on line for examplehttp://www.ehow.com/how_5018687_create-realistic-photoshop-grass-textu re.html
    but it does not tell me how I can apply it to a selection I have created that has a variance of color tones.
    All advice is greatly appreciated!

    Personally, I think you would get better results using Noel's suggestion. Myself, I favor the dune brush brush brush for drawing grasses. I love that dune brush.
    FWIW, I used the original as a soft light overlay to bring back the hill contours.  (The layer itself is in soft light blend mode. I just used overlay as a term  as I couldn't think of another description for what this layer's purpose. There's also some yellow paint in Overlay added to add a light sheen to the crest of the hill.
    Anyway, back to the texturing. I don't personally think I'd add that but if you really want to do that you could use the emboss filter to do that.
    1. Pressing ctrl + shift + alt + e. This will make a flattened composite layer of all visible layers.
    2. To composite layer you made in step #1, apply filter<stylize<emboss.
    3. Desaturate the layer you just embossed in step #2.
    4. Change the composite layer's blend mode to Overlay blend mode. Set opacity to taste. You can add a layer mask if you want the effect limited to only the grass and logs...or whatever you think looks good. This overlay emboss layer can be duplicated if the effect isn't strong enough.
    Edit: If you want to see how the texture will look on the fly as you would using the texturizer filter, change the composite layer's blend mode to overlay before you go into the emboss filter dialog. Desaturate the emboss layer after applying the filter if you go this route.
    Above the emboss filter was used to give some texture. I masked to selectively pop items...logs, foreground flowers, barn, plantation columns, road embankment grass line, some of the trees and bushes. I duplicated the emboss layer and used mask to selectively increase the emboss effect.

    The option to look for Apple TV's in the preferences went a while ago.
    Navigate to Settings > Computers > Your Library on the Apple TV, you may be told you will lose all synced content, but you can sync it back afterwards, you won't lose any purchased content that has yet to be transferred. Then select Settings > Computers > Connect To iTunes, note the passcode that appears on screen, click on the device in iTunes and enter the passcode when prompted.

  • I add a light but I can't see it in my Motion Project

    I am making some text for a trailer in Motion 3 but when I add a light to it, the effect doesn't work. I can see where the light should be and can even move it around the screen. The parameters are there for me to change the intensity etc but as there is absolutley no effect, nothing happens. I switched it to 3D mode when I added the light, yet it still doesn't show up. Can anyone explain why this is and how I can resolve it please?

    Is the light source you have added an ambient light. Then you see the overall light. By selecting spot or point light you have a light source like lightbulb.
    If the light source is under the grid you want see nothing. place it above the grid.
    If you want send the motion file to me and i let it see you

  • How do you add the motion path of a tracking point to a separate clone stamp?

    How do you add the motion path of a tracking point to a clone stamp without the clone stamp assuming the same initial/continuous positions of the tracking point?
    Is there a way to keep the clone stamp's initial position and then add the path onto it?
    I am using the clone stamp to remove unwanted duct tape that was used to keep lights on a wall.

    I have spent two days trying to find a solution to this exact same problem. I have seen some overly complex solutions that probably work but trying to figure out the explanations is like trying to understand someone describe drag coefficients of rotary wing aircraft. While I am sure they work, they are way above my comprehension. I wanted an intuitive and straight forward solution for something that shouldn't require some arcane technique to fix.
    What I did:
    1) I used the Clone Stamp tool to paint over the spot on the wall I wanted to remove.
    2) picked a more easily discernible point of reference for Tracking. In my case, I used a poster on the wall.
    3) As per the instructions here, https://www.video2brain.com/en/lessons/removing-an-object-with-clone-stamp, I pasted the Attach Point data from the Tracker into Clone -> Transform - > Position 
    However, that didn't work for me as the object I was painting was not the object I was tracking. The solution from the video was simply moving my cloned spot to the tracked object instead of leaving it where I wanted it. So...
    4)  I then manually adjusted the Anchor Point of the Clone back to the original spot I wanted to cover.
    I played footage and the cloned region successfully moved with the spot I was covering.
    This is what I was able to figure out. I'm not an advanced user. I only use After Effects every couple of months when I need to fix minor things in footage, so I've only learned to use what techniques I need for the job at hand. No doubt, experienced users may shake their heads at my simplistic fix. I'm sure my technique would be wholly inadequate for situations far more complex than fixing spots on a gray wall, which is why my eyeballs cross when reading suggestions that seem way more involved than one would expect for something as seemingly minor as this. It's just a spot! It should be super easy to remove, right? Well, that's what I was looking for and that's what I came up with. I hope it helps.
