I'm looking for a certain effect

is there a plugin/effect out there that you can make it look like the letters are being spray painted in livetype? i really wasn't coming up with anything when i looked in this forum or on google. please help me if you know how to make it look like the text is being spray painted onto the screen.
thanksx

There's nothing in Live Type that does what you want...the closest thing would be Skywriter in the Live fonts but you can't change the color on it and you would need to put each letter on a seperate track to make it work.
I think I read in a discussion months ago about doing this in Motion, you might check that forum.
Other than that the only plugin I've heard about is at
www.pluginz.com/product/10062?category=62
I"ve never used it thought so can't attest to its quality.
Good Luck

How to look for a certain value in a database using sql

Hello everyone. How do you do this in SQL? Or, is there a way to look for a certain value in a database? What I'm trying to do is this:
I want to look for the exact value "abcdefg" in the database so that oracle will return me details on the following that contains the said value:
1. the name of the table(s)
2. the column/field name(s)
Note: "abcdefg" could exist in different tables with different column names with different data types.
Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.
UPDATE: What about if I just want to check those fields/columns with string data types?

Looking for a certain application/program

I am most definitly in the wrong forum, but the people who use this forum are probably the most knowlidgable about the application i am looking for.
I have a wacom tablet, and am getting very good at drawings and animation. I was wondering if anyone knew of a program where i can draw on my tablet , and it would record it like a film, so that i could import it in fcp. If anyone knows of this program, a similar program, or a program that includes this feture i would be very interested in knowing what it is?
Ethan

Another route would be to do it in After Effects.
You wouldn't draw, like what you're describing, but you can create paths that would stroke themselves on. i.e. you'd draw it before hand with the pen tool in After Effects or Illustrator, then stroke your paths, and key frame the end-point to make it look like it 'draws' on.
It's a bit trickier, but then you can make sure there are no mistakes, make is scalable (vector-based), and very smooth.
Just so you have options.

Looking for a specific effect

Does anyone have a quick answer to this:
I'm looking for an effect of subtle shaking text
as if you are reading the text on a subway.
I'm putting subway sounds in the background.
Thanks,
D

Yet another method:
hit the record, press play, and jiggle your text dragging it with the mouse, that should create a more random motion.

Looking for good magic effect plug in

Hi-
Was looking for a good magic effects plug in, things like aura, energy beams, force fields, ect...I am willing to pay $$$...
Thanks in advance,
Matt

Best advice as Mylenium says is to look at as many tutorials as you can - I'd start with the excellent and fully featured tutorials from www.videocopilot.net and also http://library.creativecow.net/tutorials/adobeaftereffects
Getting to grips with particular will also give you some creative options with particles.

Looking for a photo effect

I have been looking, unsuccessfully, for a photo effect in AS3. I am a noob so I don't know how to programme complex effects. I could do it in after effects but I would prefer it in AS3.
How can I achieve an effects like this one
http://www.flasheff.com/patternsshowcase/?pattern=FESBlurSquare
Thank you

hi
its been a while since i used AS2 but i think AS3 has more effects (filters) - although some of them cant be set via the IDE (see http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/filters/package-d etail.html for the list)
if we were restricted to 'non-coded' effects, the possibilities would be much reduced...

Looking for Helicopter sound effect

Ive come close to creating it by altering a synth basic sound, but its still off a little. Any ideas?

Are you looking for a helicopter sample, or an AU that makes your pre-existing sound into a helicopter effect?
If it is the former, Hang and Christoph gave you some nice examples, and you can do a google search for "Helicopter Sound Effects."
If it is the latter, this free au plug in does a nice job of simulating it.

Looking for a certain calendar app or widget

I had an LG Enlighten and loved the little calendar "widget" that I put on my home screen. It showed upcoming events without having to touch anything.
I dropped and broke the screen and had to get a new phone. I now have a Galaxy Stratosphere but it doesn't have the same calendar. I miss the other and want it back!! Yes, I just stamped my foot. I'm very disorganized and that little widget/app really helped. It was about the size of the "MyVerizon" data usage box. Does anyone out there know which one I'm looking for???? Please help. Thanks.

Most manufacturers include their own skin on top of Android and a lot of widgets that come pre-installed are part of these skins. That being said, if you search the Play Store for calendar widget you may find something similar.

Looking for a certain app. can you help...

I am going flying in a little cessna tomorrow. This will be my 2nd lesson. The instructor is happy for me to have my iphone on and it doesn't have to be in flight mode.
What this means is I can use the GPS to track the flight. I am looking for a particular app that will use the GPS and plot my track and allow me to place this over a google map or even google earth to show exactly where I have flown.
I have used a similar app for running (RunKeeper) and also another called iTrial but didn't like that one much.
Is there any you can recommend?
Thanks
Mark

If you go to the iTunes App store and look in the Navigation category there are many apps related specifically to flying.
For what you specify, GPS Recorder might be the one to check out. I've not used it, though, so YMMV.

Looking for a certain Apple II fish game

Hey,
I'm looking for info on an old fish game that I played on my grandfather's computer many years ago...I think it was for Apple II, and the fish were Dolly Varden, mackinaw, chubb, rainbow trout, etc., and you had to eat other fish and avoid an osprey (this basic description was obtained from http://nslog.com/archives/2004/08/03/earlycomputermemories.php).
Does anyone know what this game was called? Thanks!

Nevermind; I found that it's called Odell Lake.

Looking for "kidnaped" letters effect tutorial

Hi everyone. I was looking for a tutorial on how to make letters appear like are cut out from a paper and assembled in a "kidnaped" message. Like in old movies. Here is an example:
Much like this but maybe a litle more serious and realistic. I searched on google with different keywords...but with no help. Maybe you guys could help me and tell where I could find a tutorial on how to make it on photoshop (CS6 is what I have). Thanks

You could try these free fonts: http://urbanartz.deviantart.com/art/Kidnapped-font-346486247, http://www.fontsaddict.com/font/erpressung-normal.html. And search for other similar fonts so that you can get some variation in the style of the letters - https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=kidnapped+font&client=firefox-a&hs=OXe&rls=org.mozilla:e n-GB:official&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=Fm2CUuCDD5GA7QaxsYBI&ved=0CAkQ_AUoAQ&biw=1770&b ih=982.

Looking for a certain transition

Hi there
I been using final cut for a while now, and I been looking hard to trying to find a certain transition. I want want the transition to be an OVER EXPOSURE to the next clip.
Right now I do this by keyframing the brightness of the two clips, and throwing a cross dissolve in between the clips, however this is not exactly the look I am lookg for. I want the exposure to increase for clip A, and the exposure to decrease in clip B, not the brightness
Does anyone know how I can do this, or perhaps recommend me a 3rd party external filter which will allow me to do this?
Thanks in Advance!
