Is this effect possible?

Can anyone help me determine if this effect is possible in
flash? I've created a video to show the effect, heres the link:
http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=db70f6709325bacd1bee9a6e9edd9c76e04e75f6e8ebb871
Its only 2mb video. Basically what happens is this: When you
move the cursor around the page, the "shine" inside the logo
changes. So think of it this way, there's an image file (a shiny
texture) that follows wherever the cursor is, and the image is
masked inside of the logo, so that when you move the cursor around
you see the texture inside the logo moving with you. Anyone know if
this is possible? Or anyone have ideas on how I can achieve a
similar effect?

sure you could do something like that with moving an item in
the x,y directions related to mouse movement. the demo is related
to calculating the angle of the mouse and rotation. you can do
something similar with a percentage based on the mouse position and
scroll an image under a mask accordingly.
and now that you say that - i totally see what was happening
in the vid ;)
give me a bit and I'll put a demo up.

  • Is this effect possible in IMovie? (and what is it called?)

    Hello, I have no knowledge, but I imagine it is some extreme filter or anamorphic lens.  I love it and want to be able to do it!

    From a "spaghetti western" i believe...
    Thank you

    this is no filter, just distortion.
    in FCPX, there's a Transformation tool allowing this.
    For iMovie, we need the free tool MpegStreamclip.
    export your clip/project from iMovie
    open that file in MpegStreamclip
    export, settings: 'wrong' aspect ratio, instead 16:9, I manually chose 4:3 (960x720)
    re-import that back to iMovie, insert into 16:9 sequence - presto!

  • Is it possible to recreate this effect on FCP or Motion?

    Hi there, I'm attempting to recreate this multi luma key effect on FCP but it is proving diffucult? Are there any methods for this to work on either FCP or Motion?
    Thanks in advance,
    http://youtu.be/Gctf0n8b3F4?t=13s

    Yeah - it's possible, but not without some trickery.
    First download and install this:
    http://sight-creations.com/fxexchange/LumaFill.zip
    if you need installation instructions, go here: http://sight-creations.com/install4fcpx/  (this is an Effect).
    You need greenscreen media. Apply the Keyer to the greenscreen footage. After the Keyer, apply Luma Fill. Select the Drop Zone source well and click on the clip you want to place inside the "person" (or whatever's left of the green screen). (The drop zone source can be from the event browser OR from the storyline [or connected clip -- and you can "hide" clips underneath the storyline.])
    Place a generator or another clip (or clips) beneath the clip to serve as a background.
    Adjust the Luma Fill with the Levels control -- drag the White Point down towards the black to "open it up". Or adjust the gamma (grey/middle control) upwards to create a mix (and try some of the other parameter controls as well.)
    [this greenscreen footage also has tracking marks... ]
    You can also use this effect (without a keyer) on "plain" (non-greenscreen) media and with or without drop zone media -- it's a cool way to add a mix of Black & White over whatever you place the clip. [Add drop zone media for a 3-way mix.]
    [stockfootage from BottledVideo.com and HollywoodCameraWork.us (greenscreen media)]
    PS - if FCPX "freaks" a little (doesn't show the effects in the video pane) simply select the transform icon under the left corner of the view, then click the Done button (that's all you need to do -- the effects should reappear in the Video inspector.) I didn't notice any adverse effects beyond that.

  • Is this Paint Effect POSSIBLE?!

    I'm relatively new to Illustrator and I've been trying all possible tutorials and techniques but I can't figure out the best approach to achieve this effect, any suggestions? Any help is greatly appreciated!!

    If your just after a reasonable vector facsimile of the look, try converting a gradient to a mesh using the "object>expand", ungroup and delete the mask, then use the Warp Tool to create the drip effect.

  • How can I do this effect ?

    Hello
    I've seen this effect in latest engadget show, episode 25
    http://www.viddler.com/explore/engadgetshow/videos/82/ (07:42)
    I wonder if this is possible with Final Cut Pro X and if yes, what do I have to use ?
    Thanks
    http://www.viddler.com/explore/engadgetshow/videos/82/http://www.viddler.com/exp lore/engadgetshow/videos/82/

    If you want the text (technology) to hide behind the wheel like that, it's best done in Motion.
    FCP X can do the rest though.

  • How to do this effect in photoshop?

    How do I do the effect used in this photo – to cover a face with a layer that follows all the curves.  And what do you call this effect?

    This is called a layer mask that has had layer transparency done to it and, possibly a series of Layer effects, too! There are quite a few steps and procedures to create this type of effect.
    I don't have the patience to try to give you each exact step by step to achieve this, but you might have better luck posting your query and image to a Photoshop users forum such as this.
    Planet Photoshop.
    http://planetphotoshop.com/
    Someone there may have created the entire procedures to recreate this effect.
    Good Luck!

  • Menu Bar Effects Possible?

    I am new to Spry and have been playing around with them in
    Dreamweaver CS4. What I am looking to do is to add a menu bar that
    when it drops down that it slides down vs. appears, and that the
    background of the submenu has an opacity so you can faintly see
    what is behind it.
    Is any of this possible with the Spry Horizontal Menubar?
    Appreciate any help that you could provide.
    Jeff

    Thank you for your reply.
    However, is there any way you could give me an idea on what I should do to get started on this effect?
    You can see an example of my menu at
    www.davemahoneydesign.com/testing
    I have no clue how to add an effect to this menu.
    Forgive me if I sound like an idiot.
    Thanks

    As for the splinters:
    Assuming you want some randomness the easiest method would, I suppose, be a use of Filters > Distort > Displace.
    Manually creating the splinters might be »easier« but more time-intensive, albeit allow for better control of the individual particles.
    As for Displace:
    • Convert the image to a Smart Object
    • create an appropriate Brush based on a splinter shape and set its Shape Dynamics Jitters and Scattering way high and in the Color Dynamics set the Hue Jitter to 100% and experiment with the Saturation Jitter
    • use the Brush on an empty layer on a 50% gray RGB-file the same size as the image and with a fully saturated foreground-color do some brush strokes and save this Displacement Map as a separate psd (see screenshot)
    • apply the filter Displace with a fairly high value (far higher than 100 possibly) on the Smart Object of the original image (see screenshot)
    • to accentuate the shards one can use the transparency of the Displacement Mask’s layer and for example apply some Outer Glow on a Layer with 0% Fill (see screenshot)
    To get more ostensible randomness one could create several Displacement Maps and apply them to flipped copies of the Smart Object and mask those with the respective transparencies (and maybe add Outer Glow to those).
    Furthermore one could work with rotated copies, but that might get tricky.
    To incorporate the rotations in the Displacement Maps might also be possible, but even trickier.

  • What did they do in post processing to get this effect?

    Hello,
    Can anyone please let me know what post processing they did to this photo to get this effect?
    Thank you very much.

    Effect?  It just looks like a well-executed, natural-looking photo shot with a good wide angle lens to me.  Indeed it's very nice.
    At one time I might have said they did noise reduction and maybe some HDR work, but with modern gear and great converters like Camera Raw (especiually considering the current set of adjustment abilities), it's not inconceivable to get an image like that right out of a raw file.  Landscapes often benefit from increased color saturation, and I can imagine the Clarity control might have helped make the air just seem very clear.  It's possible they cloned- (or spot-healed-) out any little bits of debris visible to give the image a very clean feel.
    It's also sharpened nicely for web presenetation.  There's even a lot of detail in the 2048 pixel version, though at that size you start to see sharpening halos.
    Clear, wide angle landscapes with light reflections, not to mention pretty clouds and all the colors of the spectrum, can be very nice indeed, as this shot underscores.

    HI, if I did this, then I believe that I cloud would then hold my info which I don't want. Is that the case? The reason is that I'm an old git, therefore used to not giving out info. Would I be right?
    Thank-You so much for taking the time to answer.

    I'm trying to find out how to export my apple contacts to the Salesforce software and they need to be in a csv format and I don't know if this is possible and how to do it if it is?

    I think there are third-party programs which will do that, but you can also do it with Automator:
    See the links in my post, here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/22390873#22390873
    The file or clipboard contents will be in Tab Separated vars, so you'll have to open with a spreadsheet program and save as Comma Separated Vars format.

    Trash will not delete from trash folder! What can cause this effect?

    u can actually force it to delete, oviously i assume you dont have the application or data etc open neware else?
    try restarting your computer, go into finder close all your open applications etc, servers, **** even clear your data in your web browser, do a disk utility check and verify your drives and repair em if nessicary.
    as chamar suggested look at http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/trash.html
    i had the same problem before but with a good 5-10 minutes of googling i was able to solve it..
    best of luck

  • I recently bought a new iMac as well as a wireless time capsule and have it connected how can I use this external drive as the location to store all my files for iTunes, or is this even possible?

    New iMac user here, I recently bought a new iMac and Time capsule and have the whole network up and running now. I have connected another external HD to the time capsule as well and have a total of 3 TB of storage connected wireless to my new iMac. My question is can I use this location as the default location for iTunes?  I doubt I am gonna run out of room considering the iMac has 1 TB of storage already, but I'd prefer to keep my movies and music off the Mac to keep it running smoothly. If this is possibly, I'd like to do this with iPhoto as well. 

    I would advise against placing your iTunes library on a Time Capsule.
    The Time Capsule is designed as a backup device and not for wireless streaming of video.
    Before you do anything more, can I suggest you put into place a reliable, redundant backup strategy.
    Unless you are prepared to risk loss of your iTunes library due to a hard drive failure, I would not put iTunes on the Time Capsule.
    Leave your iTunes library on your iMac until such time as your internal drive is full. Backup to Time Capsule using Time Machine and create a clone of your internal iMac HD to your external drive.
    That's my 2 cents worth. Others may have a different opinion.

  • MacBook Pro battery had accumulated more than a 1000 charges, and stopped functioning unexpectedly. Went and got the battery replaced. Just saw that SMC Firmware 1.6 update deals with this. Possible to get my money back?

    MacBook Pro battery had accumulated more than a 1000 charges, and stopped functioning unexpectedly. Went and got the battery replaced. Just saw that SMC Firmware 1.6 update deals with this. Possible to get my money back?

    The firmware update corrects an error that may occur, however the techs would have checked the condition of the battery prior to installing a new one.  If the battery was questionable, the firmware update was really not too important.
    You can check the battery condition by going to the apple, left side of the menu bar, About This Mac, More Info, System Report, Hardware, Power and see what it says about Cycle Count, Condition, Capacity: Condition anything but Normal needs to be checked and may need to be replaced.
    The cycle count of 1,000 charge cycles is the typical life of a Lithium-Ion battery, the point at which the capacity drops to 80% of the as built capacity.
