How to extend an arm in CS5?

I am making a music video for a course and one of the shots is supposed to have a guys arm stretching across the room (Mr Fantastic Style), but I am not sure how to go about it. Can anyone help me please?
Thanks

One of the important steps will be separating the subject (the person) from the background, so that you can distort just the person. This means that you'll need to shoot him against a green screen or do some rotoscoping---preferably the former. (See this page for basic compositing information.)
Once you've got the subject isolated, you can use one of the Distort effects, such as the Puppet effect, to stretch the arm.
As Mylenium says, it's hard to know what to suggest beyond that without some more details about what you are going for. For example, the image will degreade quite badly of you're stretching a small number of pixels in the original arm across a very large distance. If you're stretching very much, a simple application of a Distort effect won't be enough.

  • How To Extend Adobe Audition CS5.5

    I've received a number of questions on how to extend Adobe Audition with questions similar to:
    How do I import file format X?
    How do I import a project from application Y?
    Will there be an SDK available?
    How do I add plug-ins to Audition?
    I had made a post similar to this in the public beta of Audition for Mac, but I can no longer find the thread. So I'll reiterate some stuff here:
    Area
    Info
    Adding VST Plug-Ins
    Most of you have found this already, but the best place to start is in the Audio Plug-In Manager
    If you want to "write" new plug-ins for Audition, writing a VST plug-in will be the best option as it will allow you to write something that will work on Windows as well as OSX.  Info on writing a VST plug-in may be found here (http://www.steinberg.net/en/company/developer.html)
    Adding Audio Unit Plug-Ins (Mac OSX)
    Same as Above.   Note that OSX ships with some built-in AU plug-ins that Audition can utilize for free if you just scan at least once.   We don't scan on startup because there's several plug-ins out there in the world that don't behave well.  Info on Audio Unit plug-in development can be found here (http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/MusicAudio/Conceptual/AudioUnitProgr ammingGuide/TheAudioUnit/TheAudioUnit.html)
    Adding more import formats via libsndfile
    libsndfile is an open-source C library for reading and writing audio files (http://www.mega-nerd.com/libsndfile/)   Ambitious people could download the source, write support for another format, and create their own custom-rolled library of libsndfile.  You would then replace the version of libsndfile with which Audition CS5.5 ships, with the one you rolled.   Due to the way we use libsndfile, any format you add would show up in Audition.   This is also true if there's an official update to libsndfile that comes out in the future, you could just plop it in and it should work. 
    If you're interested in exporting or writing formats that libnsdfile supports, please tell us which formats are the most important to you and in what way you use them in your workflow.
    Adding more import formats via QuickTime components
    QuickTime has the ability to be extended via QuickTime Components.   There's several examples out there, but here are some websites to check out:
    QuickTime Components (http://www.apple.com/quicktime/resources/components.html)
    Learn about even more QuickTime capabilities (http://www.apple.com/quicktime/extending/components.html)
    Flip4Mac for Windows Media support on OSX (http://www.telestream.net/flip4mac-wmv/overview.htm)
    Perian -- the swiss-army knife for QuickTime (http://perian.org/)
    Calibrated Software (http://www.calibratedsoftware.com/products.asp)
    In most cases, just adding the various QuickTime components will automatically add the import functionality to Audition.
    Importing project formats from other applications
    As seen on other threads in this forum, Ses2sesx (http://www.aatranslator.com.au/ses2sesx.html) and AATranslator (http://www.aatranslator.com.au/) seem to add quite a bit of support.
    SDK
    At this time, we haven't released an SDK for Audition.   If you're interested in one, however, please tell us what you would want from an SDK for Audition and we'll take it into consideration.

    Charles,
    could you please also advise what PC users can do to make common avi files useable in AA CS5.5? The obvious problem is, no matter how many exotic video formats a PC can play by way of video-for-windows codecs, these are useless for Quicktime, because Quicktime on the PC needs codecs specifically written for "Quicktime for Windows", which are, as I've come to find, EXTREMELY rare. So far I've only found ONE, sold by 3ivx, but this costs as much as the AA CS5.5 update itself. Without them, Quicktime on the PC will only handle mov files, which are not too popular on the PC. Is there any other way out of this?

  • How can I change a German CS5.5 Design Standard into English?

    How can I change a German CS5.5 Design Standard into English?

    Thanks for the answer.
    No my version installs straight into German.
    There are files in many languages to be found in the contents folders.
    I managed to rename one that was recommended in a post on google in Photoshop
    inside the german language files and most of the program
    magically reverted back to its mother tongue, english.
    There was a similar way to delete or rename a file in the
    german files in Illustrator.
    However, if you go deeper in the settings of both programs,
    there are still some german words appearing.
    Finally I managed to get a hold of a little program
    on a page called 'Indesign secrets' that changed
    the language back to english on Indesign.
    But also with that one the change is not 100%.
    Lastly there are the other little programs like Bridge
    that completely stay German.
    I just can't believe that I have bought a program last 2 years ago
    that I can't use in it's first language.
    English is in all the programs.
    Adobe should just let the user decide, when they move countries
    or simply want to use the same jargon and menu names.
    Most of the tutorials or books are in English and always
    using other names for the same buttons and settings just
    seems odd, when you lived in a country for a while.
    As far as I know, the new creative cloud version is
    able to be switched.
    If you have any comprehensive method to coerce all those
    english files back from the hidden out into the open,
    I would really appreciate it.

  • How to extend an address of a BP  with more fields ???? EEWB??

    Hi Gurus,
    I need to extend the address of a BP with some customer fields. I have tried to do it using EEWB but when you have to choose a Business Object for the new extension, the reasonable only possibility is to choose BUPA Object. Thus, the DB table BUT000 is extended with a custom include that contains the customer fields, but what I want to do is extending ADRC DB table. There is some way that I do not know of achieve this in which the system creates automatically all the FM for the BDT events????
    If it is not possible, which would be the procedure to do that with my own development???
    Thanks in Advance.
    Regards,
    Rosa

    Rosa, you can only extend table BUP000 and not the actual address table. Sorry for that for more details on how to extend the BP itself refer to my WeBLOG I wrote on this. Have fun and let me know whether you need more help, Tiest.
    Also do not forget to award points to useful responses.

  • How to get Camera RAW / Photoshop CS5 to work with Canon 100D?

    How to get Camera RAW / Photoshop CS5 to work with Canon 100D? I don't want to by this product again and again...

    In what way is ACR not working in Bridge?  Is there no right-click Open in Camera Raw available from Bridge, or there is, but the ACR version is less than ACR 6.7.1 or what exactly is the issue? 
    Also, if you open Photoshop and do Help / About Plug-ins / Camera Raw, is ACR missing from the list, or if not, what version does it say is installed?
    You might also want to describe what methods you have tried to correct the issue, since saying you've tried what you've seen posted and they didn't work, isn't really much to go on.

    How to download Adobe Premiere pro CS5 for windows to my new imac 27 inch

    IMHO Windows would be the place to start.
    Why do you want to load CS5 for Windows?
    Adobe does produce a version of CS5 that runs on OS X so that it would not be necessary for you to have to screw around with Windows. Personally that would be the way to go and avoid the hassles of Windows.

  • I have Adobe Photoshop CS5 installed in two computers. The hard drive of my home computer crashed and I had no time to deactivate the software. The hard drive needed to be formatted. How can I activate the software CS5 again ? Thank you for an answer.

    I have Adobe Photoshop CS5 installed in two computers. The hard drive of my home computer crashed and I had no time to deactivate the software. The hard drive needed to be formatted. How can I activate the software CS5 again ? Thank you for an answer.

    If it's the same computer, same CPU and same HD, no de-activation or re-activation should be necessary.
    Install from scratch and apply all updates manually.
    Please do a forum search.  I and others have repeatedly answered the question about failed updates of CS5 a whole bunch of times recently.
    Bottom line:  the Adobe auto updater is utterly useless in CS5 and prior versions.  You need to download the updates and apply them manually yourself.
    I and others have even supplied the links for Mac and Win, which you haven't even bothered to specify.

  • How do I know if PS CS5 has been activated?

    How can I tell if PS CS5 has activated itself? If it has can I remove the internet connection from the computor without causing problems with the software?

    If you see Deactivate... in the Help menu, it's activated.
    I've never had any problems using Photoshop on a computer that's disconnected from the Internet, though to be fair I've never done that for more than a few weeks at a time.

  • How to extend the range with a second Airport Express? Do I need a DSL cable?

    How to extend the range with a second Airport Express? Do I need a DSL cable?

    Thanks, now we need a bit more information, please, in order to provide you with the correct information that you need.
    I assume that you already have one AirPort Express.....either a model A1264 or A1392.....set up and operating OK, is that correct?
    If yes, you can extend the network either by using wireless or an Ethernet cable with a second AirPort Express.....either the A1264 or A1392 model. A wired connection is the way to go, if possible, since it provides better performance.  But, wireless might work OK for you if you want to try that.
    Let us know "how" you want to extend......wireless or wired?

  • How to extend business partner number length

    My legacy business partner id is 13 digits long. But SAP business partner is only 10 digits long at maximum.
    Please tell me how to extend this constraint?
    Giang

    Hi Giang,
    Unfortunately, this is not possible - you cannot extend the length of BP number.
    But there's a simpler way - there is a field called BPEXT in BUT000, this is the external BP number, and can store 20 digits.
    You can transfer the BP number of legacy system into BPEXT field on the SAP system. This is a standard practice and is used by most people.
