Image warp

Is there an option to warp an image or video in Motion? I am not trying to do a complicated warp, just a simple (half cylindrical) one. I couldn’t find a filter for it. Has anyone managed to do it in any other way in motion?
Thanks

Making the text into a Smart Object could be a good choice... Then you can warp the Smart Object just fine, but if you need to edit the text that's still possible too by double-clicking the Smart Object.

Custom image warp - Photoshop

Since I upgraded to CS 5.5 I lost the ability to custom image warp in Photoshop. The icon is gray. Does anyone know how to get it back?

Full screen image warp - removable?

I always use Quicktime to view videos on my Mac. However, I don't like viewing videos in 4:3 so I always stretch it to Panoramic. I don't mind the stretching (heck, I barely notice it half the time). But I do notice the image warp Quicktime does on the sides of the video. I don't fully understand how or why it does it, but it does. VLC doesn't do this, but VLC is rubbish at viewing mkv files. Is there a way to remove this image warp as it's starting to get on my nerves.
Thanks in advance.

Yes, don't stretch videos to 16:9 when they were intended to be 4:3.

Non-destructive image warp

Hi all,
Several Photoshop assets in the Adobe CC market have warped elements (usually a smart object), where the original seems intact - I can double click and edit it without distortion - but there's a copy of the layer that has some kind of warp effect applied.
I can't work out how this is done. Can someone tell me what this is called, or what to look up in help, so I can learn how to do it?
Thanks.

You'll need to post a picture of the image so we can see it.

Bending images

how do i bend an image in flash i really cant figure it out
cheers warby

you can't - flash does not have an image warp feature - you
would have to do 1 of 2 things:
Trace Bitmap the image to convert it to vectors - then use
Free transform tool > Envelope or Distort
tools.
OR
Bend the image in P'shop and then import into flash.
If you need to bend the image as an animation - then flash is
not your tool - i would highly
recommend Animae Studio (www.e-frontier.com) for this (I use
it all the time). It supports IK
(Bones) and Image Warp - then export as Quicktime and Import
into flash.
hope this helps

Warp Stabilizer failure?

I did images Warp stabilzer for my Time Lapse a few times without problem. Today I put around 160 images into a new project. Try analyse with Warp Stabilizer, and found out my program Ae CS6 was analysing over 9,000 images and will take 230 minutes to finish. So obviously something wrong with this, Can some one give me a tips.
CPU Intel i7
enough RAM

First of all, this is a forum where people help out in their spare time. It's a forum - not a chatroom. You may have to wait more than an hour and a half for a response. Plus, your first post was around 6 in the morning for me.
Second, it is somewhat difficult to figure out what you are saying.
Third, CS6, and i7 and "enough RAM" is not useful information. HOW much RAM? What's the clock speed of the processor? What exact version number of CS6?
We need to know all of the info listed here before anyone can really start trying to help.

AAE: how to track eyes to position photos of my face

Hi,
I have been taking photos of my face for already more than two years. Now I am trying to create a short movie with those pictures.
My problem: although I tried to take identical photos I am always positioned a little bit different than the day before.
Until today I used some really basic programs: a foil on my monitor and Paint to move the picture to the right place, Irfanview to trim the pictures and finally Moviemaker to create the movie. You can imagine how much effort it is if you have to deal with more than 800 photos.
That's why I thought I could try it with Adobe After Effects using the tracking function. I already watched several tutorials and read some instructions but because I want to create a movie composed of photos and not movie-clips I didn't find a way how to deal with the problem. My idea was that AAE finds both my eyes, moves the picture to the right position and resizes it if necessary. Finally it should trim all pictures to get a proper shape.
Do you know if that's possible with After Effects or is there another program I should use?
Thanks for your help,
Andy

Won't work. you have to do it manually. AE has no way to detect features across temporally and spatially inconsistent data, which a time-lapse sequence is. There are a few experimental programs out there, but they are usually not publicly available and only research. AE can help you with the scaling and warping by using blending modes liek Difference or reducing opacity just as effects like Mesh Warp or Optics Compensation may be useful for correcting intra-image warping and lens distortion, but it would still require a lot of manual work. Likewise, the panorama merge and Merge to HDR in Photoshop could potentially be used to create some baseline layered PSDs with aligned layers, but you will still have to fine tune everything later.

Performance problem with transformations

Hi,
I'm trying to make an animation with a perspective transformation. In each iterationof the loop, two points are altered.
It works very well, but it is extremely slow. Is there a possibility to speed this up?
while() {
              i++;
               PerspectiveTransform pt = new PerspectiveTransform().getQuadToQuad(
                        10, 10, 200, 0, 0, 190, 200, 200,
                        10-i, 10, 200, 0, 0, 190+1, 200, 200);
                WarpPerspective wp = new WarpPerspective(pt);
                RenderedOp rendOp = createWarpImage(bi, wp);
                RenderedImage renImage = rendOp.createInstance();
                AffineTransform at = new AffineTransform();
                at.scale(0.5, 0.5);
                at.translate(100, 100);
                g2.drawRenderedImage(renImage, at);
        public RenderedOp createWarpImage(RenderedImage image, Warp warp) {
            ParameterBlock paramBlock = new ParameterBlock();
            paramBlock.addSource(image);
            paramBlock.add(warp);
            return JAI.create("warp", paramBlock);
        }

Where is the while loop? direct in your paint method? If yes, here is your problem, because your holding the dispatcher thread. What you need is a render loop:
MyClass implements Runnable
int maxFPS ...
public void run() {
getCurrentMillis()...
doTheBigTransform....
EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() { public void run(){ repaint()... } });
getCurrentMillis() - prevMillis vs time to wait for fps, if > 0
@override
public void paintComponent(Graphics c)
I need more details about your while loop

Does the new Photoshop Elements 12 offer Liquify under the filters menu?

Does Photoshop Elements 12 offer the Liquify filter and other image warping tools (ie the pucker and bloat filters) or are all of those only offered in the main Photoshop version???....

Liquify, yes. Other tools, not so much, if you're looking for puppet warp and those. Best to download the trial and see what you think.

I am running Photoshop CC 2014 on Windows 8.1 with an AMD quad core processor and AMD E1-2100 APU with AMD Radeon HD 8210 Graphics Card. I have installed the latest driver version 13.152.0.0. When I activate puppet warp, the mesh appears over the image and I can place the first pin. However, when I go to add the second pin, Photoshop crashes. I have tried with on a new, blank file, with just a few lines on it, but, as soon as I place the first pin, the image disappears, and then, as soon as I click anywhere else in the image, Photoshop crashes. I have followed all the online advice about settings under the Preferences/Performance interface, but nothing fixes the problem. Can anyone please help?

BOILERPLATE TEXT:
If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand, such as your platform (Mac or Win), exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop and of Bridge, machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, video card specs, what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far, what error message(s) you receive, if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them, etc., someone may be able to help you.

How to type text in a circular shape around an image without warping it?

I'm an intermediate user of Photoshop. I've unsuccessfully wrapped text in a circular shape without distorting it. The 'warp text' feature is does to achieve the appearance I seek. If possible, what are the steps to successfully do it in Photoshop.
Thanks in Advance!

To create a ring of type as seen in Fig. 6:
1. Open a new file (File > New) with the same height as its width, perhaps ten inches square and then type the sentence that is to create the circle (Fig. 1)
2. Converting the type line to a circle reduces its height. To compensate for that, choose Edit > Transform > Scale. Drag the type to about twice its height (Fig. 2)
3. Choose the Move tool and shift the type line close to – but not touching – the left edge. (Fig 3)
4. Choose the Crop tool. In the Options bar change Unconstained to 1 x 1 (Square). Then drag the right corner handle of the Crop diagonally until there is a one-letter space between the last letter of the type line and the right edge of the square. (Fig. 4) OK
5. Center the line vertically. (Fig 5)
6. Choose Select > All. Then, choose Filter > Distort > Polar Coordinates. Rasterize the type when asked. Radio button should be set to Rectangular to Polar. To preview the image, adjust the percent listed below the inset illustration. Click OK. The result: Fig 6
7. Choose Select > Deselect and, for final housekeeping, choose the Crop tool and return the Options bar to Unconstrained.
8. Save the file in psd format so that the circle of type remains on a transparent surround and the layer may be floated onto another image.
Remember: A rasterized image will lose sharpness with enlargement. It would be prudent to use the circle of type at same size or smaller.

Images appearing jagged, warped in PDF export

I am working in Indesign CS5. I have been exporting print and digital files to PDF for years with no trouble. All of my images are of appropriate resolution.
Over the weekend, I began to experience issues with export to PDF. Any placed image file is appearing as jagged or warped when exported to PDF. But looks OK when exported to JPG.
See attached image where the green text "GIONS" is rendering badly. The logo image file is 300DPI at 2000px wide. Placed in this document it is only at 35% its true size. Also looks perfectly clear with no pixellation or jagged edges when viewed in photoshop.
By contrast the placed vector file (white "Link" text at top) and all text in the inDesign file are rendering correctly.
I have never had this kind of issue before and I am at a loss.

First, why would you use a raster file for a log made of type?
Second, check the export settings you are using to be sure you are not downsampling too much or overcompressing.

Problem with warp tool and bitmap images

While you apply warp tool to a bitmap image, the image becoming corrupted on each touch. Please check screen shot...

OK. I start to understand what you're doing there.
It's simply that Illustrator is not a bitmap editor. It's not optimized for editing this kind of artwork.
What you can do is apply an envelope and then use the warp tool on the envelope.
Also: edit the envelope options. You can get higher image quality with that.

Warp on Linked Image

I'm finding it very frustrating that I cant apply a simple warp to a linked image.
Why can we apply Perspective Warp, and Puppet Warp as a smart filter but not a standard Warp.
this does not make sense to me.
am I missing something fundamental?
I actually hope that someone has a simple answer that makes me look silly for asking this question...
I realize I could have the AI file linked to a PSD file that is then linked as a smart object to the final PSD
But that is just messy.
AI file is a template for artwork
PSD is the final product, with art from template to show a proof of final product with clients art
I don't want to have to update links in 10 different files every time I change the art on the template.
Hope this all makes sense.
Thanks in advance...
PS. Photoshop 2014.2.2 release on PC

But I can do a puppet warp on a linked AI file.
I'm confused as to why warp cannot be applied as a smart filter in the same way.
to me it looks like puppet warp would be harder to achieve then a simple warp as far as the programmers are concerned.
guess I'll just keep my fingers crossed they fix this in later updates.
I'd also like to see envelope distort with mesh added as that would be extremely useful.
so it looks like I'm stuck having to turn linked files in to smart objects then updating each smart object every time I map new art.
unless there is a way of updating all links to smart objects in one hit.
