How to darken the background of a clip?
OK, here's what I think should be an easy question, but I haven't yet found the answer.
I have a clip with two characters: one in the foreground (well-lit) and one in the background (dimly lit but still visible).
How do I plunge the character in the background even further into darkness (I don't want them blackened out entirely - just enough so we can't really see their lips) while keeping the character in the foreground well-lit?
I feel that this shouldn't be too complicated, but like I said I haven't been able to figure out how to do it yet.
Thanks in advance for any and all help...
you could try a mask.
duplicate your video track. create a mask on the upper (top) video track, feather the edges, so it blends. then do any color correction, brightness and contrast adjustments, to the bottom layer, and it will only effect what is in the background beyond your mask. I used this once for a post fix when the background was overly lit, and really helped the character in the foreground to pop out.

I'm new to photoshop and elements 12. Can somebody please help me with the following: I want to darken the background (sky) as it is too bright? How do I accomplish this? Any contribution will be sincerely appreciated. Once I've receieved a response is there a way that I can communicate back, even if it is only to say that your feebeack helped? Many thans, Brian
Layers > New Adjustment layer > Curves.
You will see the curve in the Properties panel (it should open automatically).
At the top left you will see a little hand icon. Click on it.
Now place your cursor on the sky > hold down the left mouse button, and drag dowards. The entire image will darken, but don't worry about it.
Select the gradient tool (behind the paint bucket). With white as your forground colour, and black as your background colour, drag a line from just above the horzon, to just below the horizon.
That should be job done, but try it, and come back if in trouble. -

How to schedule the background job daily twice?
Hi,
How to schedule the background job daily twice? any conditions?
Regards,
Srihithasee the step by step procedure.
Scheduling Background Jobs:
1. Background jobs are scheduled by Basis administrators using transaction SM36.
2. To run a report in a background, a job needs to be created with a step using the report name
and a variant for selection parameters. It is recommended to create a separate variant for each
scheduled job to produce results for specific dates (e.g. previous month) or organizational units (e.g.
company codes).
3. While defining the step, the spool parameters needs to be specified
(Step-> Print Specifications->Properties) to secure the output of the report and help authorized users
to find the spool request. The following parameters needs to be maintained:
a. Time of printing: set to Send to SAP spooler Only for now
b. Name abbreviated name to identify the job output
c. Title free form description for the report output
d. Authorization a value defined by Security in user profiles to allow those users to access
this spool request (authorization object S_SPO_ACT, value SPOAUTH). Only users with matching
authorization value in their profiles will be able to see the output.
e. Department set to appropriate department/functional area name. This field can be used in
a search later.
f. Retention period set to Do not delete if the report output needs to be retained for more
than 8 days. Once the archiving/document repository solution is in place the spool requests could
be automatically moved to the archive/repository. Storage Mode parameter on the same screen
could be used to immediately send the output to archive instead of creating a spool request.
Configuring user access:
1. To access a report output created by a background job, a user must have at
least access to SP01 (Spool requests) transaction without restriction on the user
name (however by itself it will not let the user to see all spool requests). To have
that access the user must have S_ADMI_FCD authorization object in the profile with
SPOR (or SP01) value of S_ADMI_FCD parameter (maintained by Security).
2. To access a particular jobs output in the spool, the user must have
S_SPO_ACT object in the profile with SPOAUTH parameter matching the value used
in the Print Specifications of the job (see p. 3.d above).
3. Levels of access to the spool (display, print once, reprint, download, etc) are
controlled by SPOACTION parameter of S_SPO_ACT. The user must have at least
BASE access (display).
On-line reports:
1. Exactly the same configuration can be maintained for any output produced
from R/3. If a user clicks Parameters button on a SAP Printer selection dialog, it
allows to specify all the parameters as described in p. 3 of
Scheduling background jobs section. Thus any output created by an online report
can be saved and accessed by any user authorized to access that spool request
(access restriction provided by the Authorization field of the spool request
attributes, see p. 3.d of Scheduling background jobs section).
Access to reports output:
1. A user that had proper access (see Configuring user access above) can
retrieve a job/report output through transaction SP01.
2. The selection screen can be configured by clicking Further selection
criteria button (e.g. to bring Spool request name (suffix 2) field or hide other
fields).
3. The following fields can be used to search for a specific output (Note that
Created By must be blank when searching for scheduled jobs outputs)
a. Spool request name (suffix 2) corresponds to a spool name in p. 3.b in
Scheduling background jobs section above).
b. Date created to find an output of a job that ran within a certain date range.
c. Title corresponds to spool Title in p. 3.c in Scheduling background jobs
section above).
d. Department - corresponds to spool Department in p. 3.e in Scheduling
background jobs section above).
4. Upon entering selection criteria, the user clicks the Execute button to
retrieve the list of matching spool requests.
5. From the spool list the user can use several function such as view the
content of a spool request, print the spool request, view attributed of the spool
request, etc. (some functions may need special authorization, see p.3 in
Configuring user access)
a. Click the Print button to print the spool request with the default attributes
(usually defined with the job definition). It will print it on a printer that was
specified when a job was created.
b. Click the Print with changed attributed button to print the spool request
with the different attributes (e.g. changing the printer name).
c. Click the Display contents button to preview the spool request contents. A
Print and Download functions are available from the preview mode. -

How to stop the background job "Sap_collector_for_job_statistic"
Dear All,
Kindly let me know how to stop the Background job "Sap_collector_for_job_statistic" which is running everyday.
We want to stop this background job.
Kindly suggest.
Regards,
MullairajaSelect the Job using SM37 transaction. In the Menu Choose
Job ---> Cancel Active Job.
Before you do this it may be good idea to check the pid using SM50.
It will be using a Background work process. Check the pid and the status.
Select the same and in the Menu Choose Process --> Cancel with Core.
Refresh and check in SM37 for the Active and Cancelled Jobs. -
How to replace the background in cs3?
I have had unsuccessful attempts to mask the subjects against the black background (following this to mask the subject: http://www.scottkelby.com/blog/2009/archives/5384).
I couldn't select just the black background as subject's hair is also in black color.
How to separate the background in these situations?Along with the excellent tips above, two things that might help you create your Mask would be to explore the Channels in Lab Mode (Image>Mode>Lab Mode), as there is different info in those Channels. Also, I have used Image>Adjustments>Highlight & Shadow on a dupe Layer (Ctrl+J) to get more separation between the hair and the background. Use that to "see" the areas that you need to include in the Mask, or delete from the Mask. When done, just Delete that adjusted Dupe Layer, as it's only for you to "find" the edges of the hair.
Good luck, and be patient. The time that you take will pay off with a great Mask. Those are part art, part science and an investment in time.

Yes.
I also have Office for MAC but rarely use it as it is too cumbersome for me.
Microsoft Office does it also. So does Libre Office, Open Office and just about any full function word processor app.
