How do I motion blur and object?

I have an Ace Of Spade playing card that I scanned as a PSD.
I imported it into Motion and moved it around the scene. I want to apply a motion blur to it but when I use the movement blur filter it does not motion blur the object.
What am I doing wrong?

There's info about motion blur in Motion's help. You don't need a filter for this. Motion blur is part of the Project and View settings. Project settings determine how much blur and how it is sampled. View settings turn it on and off for display and determine whether blur carries over to FCP. You need to do a couple things to get motion blur to work. First, check Motion blur under the View settings in Motion. Second, go to your sequence settings in FCP and under Render Control set Master Templates and Motion Projects quality to Best. Settings of Draft and Normal will not include motion blur. The amount of blur is controlled by the shutter angle and sample settings in the Motion project settings.
BTW, the filter you tried is for blurring motion in clips that already contain motion. For example, you could exaggerate the motion blur of cars moving through an intersection. When the cars move, the filter blurs them. When they stop, the blur stops. Make sense?

How to motion blur an object into a scene?

I am using match move to attach an image to an object in my video. The object sometime moves around enough where there is significant motion blur. Obviously I need the image that I am adding to match this motion blur. The motion blur filter doesn't seem to work for this (at least by itself). All it does it make the image blurry within side of the bounds of the image. The motion blur in any given frame is happening along a path, and the image needs to be stretched along that path as well as blurred into the background. How do I accomplish this effect?

Hi,
You can turn on motion blur. Have a look in the view menu to turn this on. Have a look in the project properties to set the number of samples and shutter angle. However this is a per project setting rather than by layer.
Or you could a directional blur and keyframe the amount as you need.

How to add motion blur to the shatter effect?

I am trying to add motion blur to the shatter effect, iv created my own custom shatter map with text that remains after the effect is complete, i have tried to add motion blur through the other blur effects and i have not found one that will do the motion blur correctly.
what im wanting is for there to be motion blur on the pieces that are shattering, any suggestions?

There are suggestions toward the bottom of this page, including a tip using the Timewarp effect. I found this by searching for 'motion blur'.

How do I copy text and objects from pages to and paste into Email, objects don't show in Email

Anyone know how I copy text and objects from pages and paste into Email, objects don't show in Email, thanks

You can't expect Mail to support all the objects of Pages which can include anything up to charts generated from spreadsheet tables.
Even if Mail was a superset of Pages, what would the recipients who don't have either Mail or Pages, make of it?

How to make proficiency rating and objective compulsory.

Hi gurus,
Please I need your help, I need to make Proficiency Rating column of appraisal and appraisal objective to be required (i.e compulsory). That is, Appraiser will not be allow to move to step 3, if scores are not awarded to appraisee and objective is not filled. The appraisal template has been designed already and is in use. Is this possible? If yes, how can I achieve this?
Anticipating your response, please.
Ganiy

hi all,
In attempt to solve this problem i used personalization by selecting
1. Personalized "setup details"
then I select
2. message check box: show competency ratings
3. I changed "Required" field to YES and then clicked on Apply.
But the proficiency rating column which the appraiser MUST filled before moving to next step (3) did not display validation error message to inform the appraiser to supply values for the ratings for appraisee comptencies as expected of message check box with required field set to YES.
Please is this approach correct? if yes what could be the problem? if no please assist.
Thanks

How To Scale the Rulers and Object Dimensions

Hello. I've been using Corel Xara for a long time - like, since '98 - and recently started using Illustrator CS3.
In Xara, one can set the scale for rulers and objects. For example, I can set up the rulers for inches and then define a scale of, say, 1-in equals 300-ft. Once done, the ruler no longer displays inches; it displays the scale feet. And, when entering dimensions for objects or grid locations, I can use, for example, 650-ft and it will understand that I mean 2.1667-in.
Is there any way to do the same sort of thing in Illustrator? I saw how to change the rulers to inches, millimeters, points, etc., but I have been unable to find how to scale the ruler to X:Y.
Any info?
Thanx!

Short answer: No.
Longer answer: To change the ruler measurments to a different predetermined system, simly control-click (Mac) or right-click (PC) on the rulers themselves. You can not set the application to auto-scale dimension like you describe. You can use math functions in dialog boxes though. So you could enter 600'*.125 for 600 ft times 1/8

How should spatial motion tangents and shape tangents be interpreted?

I'm writing a script that needs to interpret motion paths. The After Effects Scripting Guide specifies that each keyframe has a position, an in tangent and an out tangent.
My assumption was that these tangents indicate the position of the control points for a cubic bezier curve, relative to the keyframe position. So the curve from position p1 at keyframe 1 to position p1 at keyframe 2 is a cubic bezier determined by the points (p1,p1+out1,p2+in2,v2), where out1 is the out tangent of p1, and in2 is the in tangent of p2. Is this correct?
When I read about shapes, however, I got a bit confused. Shapes are also specified by vertices, and each vertex has an in-tangent and out-tangent. My initial assumption was that these also specify control points in a cubic bezier curve. But the guide shows an example of an oval:
As far as I know, there is no way to represent a circle or ellipse using cubic beziers. This got me thinking that perhaps my interpretation of the curves as cubic beziers is incorrect (I'd like to think that a circle in AE is really a circle, and not an approximation
Does anyone know how to interpret the tangents in both cases correctly?

Hi,
Bezier segments are polynomial curves, and as such, can't plot a circle (if X and Y are real polynomials then X^2+Y^2=1 would imply that both X and Y are constant, so a Bezier segment plotting exactly a portion of circle would plot at most one point of that circle...).
However they can approximate a circle (or ellipse) arc. This is what the example is talking about.
There is not just one way to decide when the approximation is good or not.
You can try to minimize the max radial distance from the approximated circle to the ideal one, or minimize the difference of areas, etc...
You'll get different data each time.
The most used convention for cubic Bézier and 90° arcs is "like this": start with a quarter of ideal circle, set the start and end points of the Bezier segment to coincide with the extremities of the arc, the tangents tangent to the arc, and adjust their common length so that the point at parameter t=0.5 coincides with the middle of the arc. Then (calculate) you find that the tangent length should be 4/3* (Math.sqrt(2)-1) (0.552284741...) times the radius. This extends to 90° ellipse arcs as well since the image of a segment under affine transformation is the segment defined by the image of its control points. That's where the 55.23 comes from. If you want more info there are articles on the net about that (Cubic Bezier + circle).
There other approaches (other contraints) that give closer approximations but for video it really doesnt matter, even 0.5 or 0.6 would work, noone will come and tell you that your circle is not a circle...
Your interpretation of motion path / shape path data is correct.

How to change multiple artboardsizes AND objects in it?

Hi everyone
I want to know if there's a possible to change multiple artboards AND the objects that you make in it, scale proportionally?
I'm able to change my artboards independent but not al the artboards on the same time. Is there an option for that you can change multiple art boards on the same time?
Then I have an other question.
Is there a possibility that you can scale you objects (or things that you made in that artboards) proportionally when you want to change your artboards?
Or do you have to remake al de artboards on the size that you want and scale the objects that you make manualy?
Thank you in advance

astriva wrote:

SHort answer: yes.
Long answer: first create rectangles the size of your artboards. Then delete the artboards.
Scale everything as desired. Convert rectangles to artboards via the command in Object > Artboards.

Motion blur is messing up my composition

Hey all,
I'm working on a project which involves 3d space (using camera tracker). Everything is going fine until I needed to turn on motion blur for a layer. When i switched it on for the composition, things start to get weird. If you play the video, the null objects visibly "rotate" instantly, move from spot to spot randomly, and it's obvious that something is not right. When i turn off the motion blur, the object right themselves.
Does anyone have any suggestions? I think i can work through it by creating a new composition then dropping the existing into that and turning on motion blur there, but i would rather be able to work with it in the same comp.
I'm working with 1920x1080p footage 30 fps in CS5.5 on a macbook pro 2.52ghz intel core 2 duo. If you need any other info just let me know.
Thanks
Dan

OK, here's my best guess. When you turn on motion blur time samples differently. The keyframes that are causing the problems are at a z rotation for the camera of 179º. This made me think you were experiencing a gimbal lock with your camera moves. When the camera gimbal locks the camera orientation flips. It has nothing to do with motion blur being enabled on the layers.
I seldom apply tracking data directly to a camera for this reason. I almost always apply the tracking data to a null then parent the camera to the null. This will prevent gimbal lock problems with the camera.
There is a solution that may work for you. Open up the composition settings, the Advanced tab and change the Shutter phase to 0º. This should prevent the gimbal lock that you're getting. I wouldn't call this a bug, but a better workflow would have prevented the problem in the first place.

What's the correct workflow for high FPS footage motion blur?

Situation is the following:
I have a few 600fps recordings I want to put together with heavy editing.
Things I want to do (not in order):
Change the velocity heavily up and down, from 300% to 10% and back withing seconds.
Basic VFX, heightmap, masking, light flashes and so on.
3D tracking and effects, particles and text in 3D space
Color Correction
Good motion blur
Overlays
Now, my question is at which point I apply the motion blur. I'd like to start in Sony Vegas for the velocity and then move to After Effects.
But Sony Vegas is capable to export at max 120fps. Will the motion blur result be worse/different with minro FPS footage?
In Sony Vegas for example, the resample feature is pretty useless/bad unless you go over 120fps.
But obviously I can't start by importing my footage into AE and firstly add motion blur. By my understanding I have to do all FX and color correction before adding motion blur, and until then the footage has to stay 600fps. Is this correct?
Thanks in advance.

and until then the footage has to stay 600fps. Is this correct?
No. Motion blur is calculated from frame to frame at the actual playback speed. Anything else would look fake, anyway, though of course you may already ned to/ want to add some motion blur to some elements halfway through just to from the precision of higher framerates. Smoother curves and all that. So ultimately in which order you do it is till a matter of what gives you the best result, not so much a fixed "correct" order.

How do I select an image with motion blur so that I can put it onto a different background ?

How do I overlay a image with motion blur on a white background (like the first image) onto a different background (to look like the second image)? any help would be greatly appreciated, many thanks ,ed
Message was edited by: motoredd

I’m afraid you may have bitten off more than you might want to chew.
The resulting pixels of an in-camera-blur combine information about the color/brightness of back- and foreground (edit: the result of surface properties and lighting conditions) with motion (basically transparency for this task) in such a way that it seems exceedingly difficult (maybe even improssible) to isolate the foreground in a »pure« form.
One may get a halfway decent mask (as the backgound is at least almost uniform and brighter than the foreground elements) but you may have to manually decontaminate the transparent areas, otherwise the masked object in front of a dark background would have a bright edge.

After Effects CC: Motion Blur, 3D Layers and Opacity

Hi All,
I've had this problem for a while now (it happened in CS6 as well).
I'm animating vector layers from Illustrator (continuously rasterize on). When I apply a camera, 3D Layer and Motion Blur I have a consistent glitch (or maybe not a glitch but conflicting variables).
If I simply animate one layer from 100% opacity to 0%, and another from 0% to 100% from keyframe : 01 to : 02 (switch off, not fade) the top layer lingers with transparency for an extra frame - it doesn't switch off cleanly.
This creates frustrating issues which I have worked around once I go into Avid, but I'd greatly appreciate some advice on how to avoid the issue altogether. It's particularly frustrating if I am trying to do a smooth camera move and I have have a lingering frame.
Thanks.

How to get rid of motion blur

I wasn't sure how to get rid of motion blur off my pictures. I saw this prototype that they showed to the audience at the Adobe MAX 2011. I could not believe the result! It was absolutely perfect! When would they finally release it, or have they already released it and that I didn't realise? If they would not release it, why wouldn't they when it showed the perfect result? Are there any alternatives I could use?

In PS CC you can minimise the camera motion blur(photo taken with shaky hand ) but you can do nothing when subject itself is moving and caused blur in photo

How do I set up the "Objects and Attachments"

Hi .... I'm new at WorkFlow (and SAP for that matter) and have inherited a WF that is already built. In several of the steps I can see "Objects and Attachments" on the work item screen where a User can click to be directed to a transaction. For example, on one screen the User can click on "Incoming Invoice: 5105601690" to be directed to the Invoice Display Screen that is populated with information for that particular invoice (5105601690).
I am looking at the WF using TCode SWDD and cannot figure our how the original developer set this up. So my question is ..... for a particular WF step, how do you set up the "Objects and Attachments: area so that the User will be directed to a particular transaction when he/she clicks on it.
Thanks in advance, and sorry for such a "juvenile" question.
Dan A

Thanks for your reply Rajkumar,
I am looking at the screen you have directed me to. Business object is BUS2081 (actually it is ZMMWBS2081 which is a customized version BUS2081) Method is "Display" and Attribute is "InvoiceDocNumber". How do I know by looking at this that "Display" means Display Invoice? What if I wanted to display the PO instead?
Thanks for the "spoon feeding".
