How do u make an image look like a bubble?

After cutting it in a circle, i need it to look like its on the surface of a bubble. I don't mean the Spherize filter. I want the entire cropped image to look curved like a bubble or a water droplet. Please help.

Assuming you have 3D capability you could try 3D > New Mesh from Layer > Mesh Preset > Sphere. This will wrap your image around an actual 3D sphere. You may need to experiment with cropping or enlarging your background area to get your desired results, and since it's 3D you can rotate it and adjust lighting and material attributes. If you want to alter the shape to, e.g. an egg or a falling drop of water, you could render and flatten your 3D sphere and then use the warp tool to adjust as desired.

How do I make multiple movies look like one?

I created a demo of 136 slides with mostly screencaps and one
small flash animation. The final published flash file is
approximately 30MB. When the demo is run on multiple computers, the
CPU utilization rises up to almost 100%, this makes the demo run
very slowly on most computers. I was advised to cut my captivate
movie in half ( in slides)... however even then the CPU utilization
is quite high. How can I break my demo into multiple linked movies
(to bring down the file size) but still have it play smoothly
without it stopping to load after each new movie? How do I make
multiple movies look like one?
Thank you.

Would it work to make the navigation of the page go to the
next movie?

How do I make 29.97fps look like film?

Sorry for the novice questions, but all of my footage has been shot on a relatively inexpensive camcorder which records at 29.97fps. Is there any easy way to make it look like a 24fps film when I play it back on my NTSC television?
I am relatively new to FCP but I have started learning compressor and I also heard about a program called 'Nattress?"
Any help would be appreciated!!!
-Brian

There have been endless discussion and tutorials on how to make 29.97 look like film, so I would also check Google. One of the more commonly known plugins that will do this is called Magic Bullet. But be aware, there is only so much that can be done with DV footage shot on a relatively inexpensive camcorder (I'm assuming DV). Most "film effects" plugins will provide you with a nice number of presets that will soften your image, simulate pulldown, add grain, and do some heavy color correction. But they can't invent pixel data that isn't there to begin with.
What really makes shooting on film so unique and eye catching is that if you can afford to work with it, chances are you can also afford high quality lenses and professional lighting. Things like motion blur, grain, lack of color sampling and a high dynamic range are what give film a unique look. Personally, I think getting a true "film look" for DV is a bit of an impossibility, but people have done some nice stuff with these plugins. Unfortunetly, until the really high end video formats make it into our Handycams, I think we're stuck with simulating the effects, rather than duplicating them.

How can I make a photo look like it's on a 3D Box Canvas?

Hi,
I have been scratching my head trying to figure out a way to make a photo look like it's wrapped around a wooden frame, like on a box canvas. I'm not concerned with the canvas texture, I just want to know how I can apply an effect or an action to a single image to give it depth. Any ideas?
Ross

the one i posted was a psd file using a smart object. Double click the smart object it then opens a new file, you add the photo you need, as you from the example that image is wide screen, my photo wasn't, so you use the 2nd file to make the photo fit how you want, then save and it then alters the original file, hence smart object. The background too was one, hence the perspective.
The splicing etc is ok , as you say if you have an odd one to do.
So essentially you make up the smart object once and then reuse. As you woudl need to make the canvas / canvas's into several templates for your liking, be it square / portrait / landscape or even spread over several canvases
The example i showed here is an illusion, but a pretty good one, It NOT 3d. Its done with shadows, this is the smart object.
as you see its just a perspective rectangle with the top and bottom left cropped off for the depth.
these are the psd layers as you see there are only 5, its not an action, but googling i did see an action, i think it was $35. But as i said bear in mind the amount of possible boaard canvases you may want.
2 of the other layers as you see are for the lighting and the top one is the 3d illusion effect, this particular one has the canvas effect too. I can't remember where i got this one from. I think graphic river do 3d canvas though, there will be others.
Another thing to consider if using an action is if it can do multiple boards. like ...
again just to show you before the illusion
Pretty much example like the emboss effect you can use, all done with lighting and darkness.

How do I make the images look clear in PDF when converted from MS Word?

Hi
When I convert an MS Word-2010 file (which contains images also) to PDF through Acrobat X Pro, some images which are of bigger size do not look very clear. Is there any workaround for this problem? Please reply. It's quite urgent.
Thanks

In my experience (not necessarily the best), I find it best to rescale image copies with a graphics package before importing into WORD or whatever. Resize and then set the resolution to about 600 dpi before you import. The issue of using the clipboard appears to be an issue with WORD 2007 and such. I clipped a 300 dpi image into my technical word processor and then back to a graphic editor and all was preserved. I did the same with WORD 2007 and everything got messed up and the resultant image looked terrible. In fact, in WORD I got the same result if I imported the picture or clipped it from my graphics package. So it appears there are some strange issues with WORD itself.
I am not trying to make any claims here, but just making an observation. The original image was at 300dpi. WORD also changed the 8-bit B&W photo to a 24-bit photo and reduced the number of pixels from 774 per width to 252 per width about a factor of 3 reduction in pixel resolution when clipped. When I expanded the image size in WORD, then the clip size increased also. When I do the same expansion of the image size in my word processor and then clip back to IrfanView, the original image is retained. My only conclusion is that OFFICE 2007 plays around with graphics and it does not seem to make any difference if you clip the image into WORD or import it, WORD still messes around with it. My guess this is just a general MS thing.
Some folks a year or 2 ago got me to looking at nice sunsets in PPT. There were all sorts of issues with creating the PDF (AA8) from the PPT to get a reasonable result. The image obtained from the MS converter seemed to keep the picture nice. The images obtained from PDF Maker and printing to the Adobe PDF printer gave slightly different results and tended to break the image into smaller parts that often left little lines in the picture if you zoomed in. Folks were blaming this on Acrobat and yet using the same version of Acrobat with OFFICE 2003 the sunset came out great.
This post is a bit jumbled, but the jist is that a lot of the graphics issues with WORD files seem to go back to WORD itself and possibly with hooks MS put into OFFICE (OK, no proof on that and probably impossible to prove) to mess up Acrobat conversions. It would be interesting to see if the same result for the PDF is obtained from other converters, or if it is just something that OFFICE 2007 does "nicely" for Acrobat.
Sorry for going off the deep end, but I just have a major annoyance with OFFICE starting with 2007, particularly for things like this. They couldn't get equations right either, just one more thing that they messed up. As far as I am concerned, a lot of the issues stem from MS and not Acrobat.
Just for the heck of it, I ran the PPT picture through Open Office and used both the PDF export and the print to the Adobe PDF printer. Both retained the full image. However, when clipping from OOP to Irfanview, the resolution was 96dpi. The result seemed to be dependent on the zoom. So there are definitely some issues with copy and paste, at least with how some packages handle it.

How do i make my Video look like a dream.

Hi, I was doing a cartoon video thing. And There should be this person Dreaming about stuff. Usually in Tv shows, Dreams are Black and While + a smooshy black frame thing. I know how to do the Ones where i make a frame that looks like a box. But it looks sorta ugly. Is there anyway I can make it look cloudy sorta thing? Thanks

a little use of the *Soft Focus* filter goes a long way in a dream sequence
or a bit of diffusion will do much the same thing ... layer a second copy of the "Dream" clip on the track above the first, then add some *Gaussian Blur* to that upper copy then adjust the clip's opacity, bringing it down to about 30%, finally right click that upper clip and change the Composite Mode to Screen ... play around with the blur amount, the opacity and the composite mode settings until you hit on a look you like

How do I make Flash not look like it's not responding?

When I run a JSFL script that is pretty intensive and in depth, Flash opens up but doesn't draw itself, and lists "not responding" in the window title bar.
My question is how can I make Flash look like it's alive (either have output show up in the output window, or have the stage update to the current frame that is navigated to from JSFL script, or put up some dialog box like the export movie progress bar)? The script sometimes takes about 20-40 seconds to run and the user may think that it's actually crashed.
I print out times of all my processes and functions, and eventually I get an output that seems reasonable. I thought printing output might help, but there doesn't seem to be a flush command for it that will force it to be written out.
Thanks.

How can I make my images look good when exporting to PDF document?

Hello! I'm struggling here with a PDF Brochure that I need to create (intended for web only, not print).
There are two images that look horrible and pixelated when I create my PDF file. I have tried everything, making the images bigger and smaller, using 72 dpi images and 300 dpi ones. Everything results the same way... It looks perfect in my InDesign file, but in the PDF it looks all damaged. Here are two screen shots, one of how it looks in the PDF and one of how it looks in InDesign.
Could you please tell me what I need to do to guarantee that the image looks good quality in the PDF? (My document is 40cmx20cm, I don't not if using cm is affecting the document).
To export to PDF I'm using the option: Adobe PDF pressets --> Smallest file size.
If you can help me I would really appreciate it!
Thank you,
Nataly.

Terrible idea. In a JPG the text will not be alive, you loose all interactivity.
And making JPGs with InDesign is not what the program is meant to make.

How do I make my terminal look like this?

Hello, I'm trying to figure out how this guy made so his terminal look the way it does.
I've searched around some sites but I can't really figure out what to look for as I don't know the name of the application or what it really is, just that it looks like that.
http://sites.google.com/site/gotmor/dze … xmonad.png

Rob (the dzen dev, IIRC and BTW) is probably using urxvt as a terminal. The prompt is a two-line prompt like this one, you'll need zsh for it. Also, he uses XMonad, a tiling window manager, which doesn't draw any window decorations, so there's no close/maximize/minimize buttons or title bar. Good luck getting into them all, you're in for quite a journey.

How do I make my calendar look like a calendar and not a list!

My calendar is a list...I want it to look like a wall calendar.
I switched from Entourage to mail and can not figure out how to change the way the calendar displays.

I guess you answered my question...although I am very dissapointed.
If I switch to Mail then I'll also have to run iCal and deal with two applications instead of one. Not to mention the fact that I can't get iCal to automatically update past calendar appointments all at one time.
I never thought I would admit that microsoft did a better job than Apple (man, it hurts to say that). I guess it's back to Entourage for me until they come to their senses and combine them into one smooth running MAC product.

How do I make an object look like it's rotating in 3D with multiple images?

I have multiple angle images of an object and I want the result to be the same as the link here. http://www.apple.com/iphone/gallery/#gallery04. I don't know flash at all but it seems like there would be a simple program (even if I have to pay) that allows me to import the images, set the rotation speed and other settings and then hit export to .flv file or something. Does anyone know of a program to do this, or a simple method?
Thanks,
Caleb

Thanks for the info. I know how to make a movie clip of the frames but I don't know JavaScript or much web programming. I don't necessarily need it to be web based..I just need a .flv file that let's me scrub my mouse to the left and right to rotate it. There is a program called photosimile that does this very well which I have used but you have to purchase their 3000 dollar machine and have it plugged in to use the software! I just want a standalone software for this.

How do I make an object look like it is inside of a ring??

I want to have an oval shaped picture hugged by a ring so that the ring goes around the back of the picture and over the front of it.

To do this entirely in ID you'd need to draw the ring as a shape or path with the part behind the image missing and palce it in front of the image. Illustrator's patfinder tools are a little more sophiticated and might make it easier to isolate the part that goes behind, but you'd still need to to essentially the same thing.
