How to place multiple images in batch with drop shadow effects on room backgrounds at the same position?

I want to place multiple images of hand paintings with drop shadow effects on room backgrounds to make them look as if the paintings are hanged on the room walls. I know how to do it one by one, but that takes time and I want to do it in batch at once.
I am quite a beginner for adobe photoshop CS6. I belive such an automated task is possible through 'Automated Batch' function and/or 'Create Droplet' function. Kindly share your expert opinion.

If you want to go with Batch I would recommend creating an Action of more or less these steps:
• set the resolution to the same as the background image’s
• change the image from Background Layer to regular Layer if necessary
• convert it to a Smart Object
• add a Drop Shadow Layer Style to the image (do not use Global Angle)
• place the background image (File > Place …)
• move it behind the image layer
• Image > Reveal All
• make Selection from that layer’s transparency (cmd-click its icon in the Layers Panel) and use Image > Crop
• select and transform the image layer to fit the intended position
This would naturally work out best if the images had the same size and proportions.
For the reflection on the floor duplicate the image, flip it vertically, move it in position and reduce its opacity to maybe 10%.
Realistically you may have to hide it partially behind the pillows, a Vector Mask would be an option.

  • How to place multiple images?

    Hi,
    How to place multiple images?

    Is the script creating the frames? If so, just assign each frame a
    variable, or make them all into an array. Then use something like:
    myFrame.place("aFile");
    If the script is not creating the frame, then are they live frames on
    the page, or are they actually on a master page?
    If they're on master spreads, you'll have to release them to the page
    you want. (I think it's myMasterFrame.override(myPage) where myPage is
    the live page you want to detach them on, but you'll have to double
    check that.)
    But presuming they're regular detached frames on a page, if you want
    your script to figure out which is the first and which is the second you
    can either use script labels in the UI and then search for the script
    label, or else you'll have to write a function that will get all
    rectangles on the page (myPage.rectangles.everyItem().getElements() and
    either do a clever javascript sort, or write a straightforward function
    to sort them by height and x-pos.
    Hope that sheds some light on the task ahead!

  • How to record you screen using quicktime with built in input line and microphone in the same recording?

    i am using th quick time record your screen option and see (when on the audio selction) that you can only either record sound from your computer or from your microphone
    is it possible to have it both on one recording?

    The usual audio-in options on a laptop are None / Built-in Input: Line in / Built-in Microphone: Internal microphone. There's not an option to record system audio unless you've installed a third-party extension such as Soundflower.
    In any event, if you're looking to combine audio inputs, check the Audio MIDI Setup help files (Applications > Utilities > Audio MIDI Setup). Search for "aggregate."

    how to have multiple images on the same screen? like in the movies where you see several actions at the same time ....
    i don't find  a tutorial in adobe tv....
    thanks !!

    The short answer is that you'll put the source clip(s) for each inset on a different video track, all stacked up. Then use the Scale and Position effects (under "Motion" on the Effect Controls panel) to reduce their size and place them where you want.
    If the content of an inset will involve edited content (where you're cutting among various clips or just trimming out unwanted content from a single clip), then you'll probably find it easier to do all those edits in one sequence, then nest that sequence in the master sequence, where you apply the Scale and Positioning effects. That will save the step of applying the scale and position effects to each edited track item.

    Create a table with a Long RAW Datatype column for storing the Image Column Data.
    Create the form based on the table , which by defaults the column with LONG RAW atatype to a Image Item.
    You can use Forms Built in function READ_IMAGE_FILE to read a Image file stored on the file system in to the image item.
    A save on the form saves the image in the Image item in the long raw column.

  • Drag and drop or place multiple images

    Hi,
    I'm working with Photoshop Elements 12 and would like to place multiple images (on different layers) in my project but am only able to place one image with the option "place" at a time. Is there a way to place multiple images at once?
    Other option that works in Photoshop is drag and drop mutliple files from my finder window (I'm a MAC user) into the open project. This would create multiple new layers with the imported files. This doesn't work for me with Photoshop Elements 12. When I drag and drop, new projects are created with the imported files.
    Hope someone has an answer for this. Thanks!

    Thanks LarryHN thats helpful. I've just tried that and the export 'current' option does indeed re-create the edited photo file with exactly the same file size at that shown in iPhoto. I did consider the 'current' option but was put off by the loss of the metadata with this option. But maybe the old drag and drop approach was the same?
    It's curious that the resulting file size from 'export, current' is different (larger in the example I just tried) in comparison to that resulting from 'export, jpeg' (with either the medium or high option selected).
    OK there seems to be a couple of reasonable options available although neither is as nice as the simple 'drag and drop' which used to be available!!! Why would they remove that option?? (and yet not for single files?).
    Thanks

  • How to place an image in JFrame

    hello
    i want to know how to place a image on JFrame
    i am not using any layout..
    pls help..

    Hi...
    To do this, u can look to tweak the paintComponent() method . All u have to do is create a JPanel subclass and override the paintComponent method to draw the image. then set it as the frame's content pane. that is because you work only on the content pane in swing. that should help.
    Source for ImagePanel :
    <code>
    package com.rsramanujam.help;
    import javax.swing.*;
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.awt.image.*;
    public class ImagePanel extends JPanel
         Image backImage = null;
         public ImagePanel(Image backImage)
              try
                   this.backImage = backImage;
              catch(Exception e)
                   System.out.println("Could not get Image");
         public void paintComponent(Graphics g)
              Graphics innerG = g.create();
              if(backImage == null)
                   innerG.setColor(new Color(0xffccccff));
                   innerG.fill3DRect(0,0,getSize().width,getSize().height,true);
              else
                   innerG.drawImage(backImage,0,0,getSize().width,getSize().height,this);
         public void setBackImage(String path)
              ImageIcon ic = new ImageIcon(path);
              this.backImage = ic.getImage();
              repaint();
    </code>
    U can see a working example at http://www.geocities.com/ramanujam_off/java.
    There , download the app called RamHelp. It comes with a GUI that uses panels with Background Images.

  • How to place an image onto each page

    Hi !
    How do I place an image onto each page (like a logo in a sidebar) using Pages 5.5 ?
    Thanks,
    Karsten

    Karsten,
    I am surprised no one has answered you yet - there are so many Pages users here.
    I am not a Pages user but I did find one way here on this thread in an answer from Arno Jannarelly
    insert image to header in Pages, template header
    "If you want any layout item to be repeated to all of the pages of your document, you just have to select the item(s), then go to Arrange/Section Masters/Move Object to Section Master.
    The good thing of this is that you can repeat any item or group of items placed anywhere you want on the page."
    Now when I first tried it I had no luck, until I selected the image and went to Arrange > Section Masters from the main menu, not on the right hand side from the Format/Document area.  
    From there there is an option: Move Object to Section Master.
    You then can format your image with drop shadows, opacity, etc. and it should be there on new pages in Pages.
