Should I Scale in Premiere or Use Cameras in AE?

I'm using Dynamic Link to cut talking head videos in Premiere and bring into AE- my question: is it ok to use different cameras in AE instead of scaling in Premiere? I just want to make sure that when I do a closeup shot or zoom in AE, it doesn't lose any more resolution than if I had scaled the clip in Premiere?
Thanks.

My workflow: 
1) Edit basic cut in Premiere, leaving all motion alone, keeping it scaled at 100%
2) Dynamic link to AE for compositing (I'm using green screen), and creating different shots with camera layers (closeups, mediums, wide, etc.)
This leads me to believe you're shooting wide shots only, and you want to use AE to create closeups by scaling shots far beyond 100%.  That's a bad work flow, from the very start. 
If you want wide, medium and tight shots, you should plan to SHOOT wide, medium and tight shots.  AE's capable of a certain amount of scaling up while retaining image quality.  It's good... up to a certain point.  But wide shot to tight shot?  AE can't work miracles.
Do yourself and your project a favor: re-shoot if necessary.

  • Should I use Camera Raw 5.0 for JPEG photo editing?

    Hello,
    I have Camera Raw 5.0 through Bridge CS4 and I shoot photos on my Nikon D40X in JPEG.  Should I NOT be using Camera Raw to edit my non-RAW photos?  Is it degrading my images?  I noticed when I did some editing and saved the photo, the new photo size was about 25% of the original JPEG size. 
    Thanks in advance!!

    To tell you the truth, you might be better off just shooting RAW in the first place... but I'm surprised by your decrease in size... I can only echo the suggestion to check the JPEG quality box and the file format used.  You didn't crop it to some different resolution, did you?
    PS: I'm getting into photo editing pen tablets.  You might try one some time for editing.

  • Use camera zooms only in nested comps, not parent comp?

    hello
    I recently received some advice on a project where I was having some vector art pixelization problems during camera zooms--I was told that camera zooms should not be made in the main comp, but that instead, they should be made in the precomps (or nested comps) to avoid this pixelization problem. It seems to me that AE should be able to propogate clean, illustrator vector graphics during camera zooms, all the way up to a main comp, through the use of the "continuously rasterize" and "collapse transformation" options.. but perhaps this is not so?
    can anyone elaborate on this issue?
    thanks
    LML

    If vector images are set to continuously rasterize you can scale them or push the camera into them as far as you like with no problems. If certain effects have been applied to your eps or ai files they will be rasterized when imported into AE so they will behave exactly like a raster image. There's nothing you can do about that. Turning CR on or off will have no effect. If CR isn't fixing the pixelization issues then you've applied a layer effect somewhere in the chain that's causing the image to rasterize. Sometimes these problems can be fixed by pre-composing and doing the scaling in the pre-comp (layer effects). Sometimes they can't. Most of the time, if the problem is in the Illustrator file you can fix it by editing the original and removing the layer effects applied in Illustrator.
    You can change the antialiasing quality of vector graphics in the file interpretation options from faster to more accurate. You'll find it under More Options.

  • Problems using Camera Raw function in Bridge CS5.1

    Hey so I don't know what the heck is going on, but Camera Raw was working perfectly for me when I got this computer. It's a work computer, and all the programs were recently installed. I like using Camera Raw because of the easy basic editing and mass rendering (from .nef to .jpg) because I do a lot of shooting as a journalist.
    Like I said, it was working fine for me the past three weeks. Now I get this error message:
    Camera Raw editing is not enabled
    Camera Raw editing requires that a qualifying product has been launched at least once to enable this feature.
    I just installed the program, alongside PSE 12 Editor, and I have no idea how to fix this. Obviously, I've opened both Bridge and PSE, so I have no idea what I'm supposed to do now.
    Please please help. It's a MAJOR pain in the arse to have to edit every photo manually in PSE.

    You can use PSE with multiple Raw files also but Camera Raw in PSE has very limited options compared to the full ACR and also you can't save as jpeg via PSE.
    But do you have Photoshop CS5 installed because I can't find any info on that in your posts??
    Bridge CS4 was the only version that worked with PS elements (PSE 8??) but after that they discontinued the connection and since then PSE again uses its own organizer. So it is either using PSE for your work or you have to use Photoshop and Bridge.
    Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) is a plugin that comes with Photoshop. But Bridge has the option to also use this same plug in but it uses the PS version itself. If you open a Raw file in Bridge the normal way it opens in ACR via PS.
    If you choose right mouse click menu 'Open in Camera Raw' it uses ACR via Bridge. You can use both ACR at the same time. e.g. open multiple files in Bridge to load them as 'filmstrip mode' in the ACR window. Make your changes and choose 'save image'. While this jobs is running you can't use PS until the saving has finished.
    however if you return to Bridge and select another bunch and open this via 'Open in Camera Raw' the ACR window opens via Bridge. So while the first job is running in the background via PS you can start the second job via Bridge.
    Be sure to have the latest updates and the latest ACR version for Camera Raw (in your case it should be both PS and Bridge CS5.1 and ACR 6.7)
    In PS go to menu Photoshop / About Plug In / Camera Raw and this provides a window with the version of Camera Raw you are using.

  • Do I need to use camera Raw to process images?

    Do I need to use camera raw to process raw images b4 editing with PSE? And if so do I need to download it seperately? I can't find it under help/updates in PSE

    What version of PSE and which camera? Normally, if you try to open a raw file into the editor, the camera raw window should pop up automatically.

  • I have cs5 for windows and can´t use camera raw (6.5) with nikon d800e

    I have photoshop cs5 and can´t use camera raw (6.5) for nikon d800e.

    You will need to update to the latest ACR ver 6.7.1 for Photoshop cs5.
    If you  go to Photoshop's Help menu > Updates..., it should be available for download.

  • Anyone cant use home button on home screen and pull-down menu after using camera?

    After snaping some pics i am unable to roll down menu and also home button to scroll to main screen on home screen.

    Oh sorry i wrote it not understandably...
    After i snaped some pics with camera accessed thru locked screen i was not able to use home button and also drag notification center from top. It did not worked. Turn on and Turn off was needed to enable home button on main screen (it not worked only on main screen. It should take you to first screen of your home)... I have experienced it twice after using camera opened from locked screen. I can not reproduce it... First time there was also disappeared top panel with watches and battery life (screenshots)

  • Cannot Use Camera Raw out of LightRoom 4

    Below is a lengthy dialogue that I just had with Tech Support via Chat regarding accessing Camera Raw directly out of LightRoom 4.  The end result is that it can't be done.  LightRoom 4 has it's own "Develop" section and if you try to "Edit in: PhotoShop 6" the RAW image will bypass Camera Raw and open directly into PhotoShop.  Something that I was surprised at and frustrated by.  I thought for sure I was missing somehting.
    I do not recommend buying LightRoom other than a means of "organizing" our images.  I simply use Bridgne and am able to open a Canon "CR2" Raw file directly into Camera Raw and then after making my adjustments directly into PhotoShop.  LightRoom lacks Layers, Paths and Channels and a host of other wonderful adjustment / manipulation capabilites not found in LightRoom.
    So, if you are like me and want to use Camera Raw prior to going to PhotoShop then LightRoom will not get you there.  I spent a tremendous amount of time researching it thinking I must be missing something and then I contacted Support via Chat and we went through changing %AppData%, which only resulted in me losing all my PhotoShop Preferences!  A total waste of the Technician's time and mine.
    I share the below chat with you only to show you the ludicrous amount of time wasted when the answer remains the same:  YOU CANNOT ACCESS CAMERA RAW DIRECTLY OUT OF LIGHTROOM 4
    Thank you for choosing Adobe. A representative will be with you shortly. Your estimated wait time is 0 minute(s) and 3 second(s) or longer as there are 1 customer(s) in line ahead of you.
    You are now chatting with 'Soumyadeep'
    Soumyadeep: Hello. Welcome to Adobe Technical Support.
    Soumyadeep: Hi Fred!
    Fred: Hi there my friend. I am trying to use Lightroom 4, but frankly am not happy with the way it handles RAW files.
    Fred: I cannot open a Canon ".cr2" RAW file directly into Camera Raw from LightRoom.
    Soumyadeep: I have received your query. Please allow me a moment to verify your account and to review the details of your request.
    Fred: Thanks. I have also gone through all of the information I can find in the "Help Menu" looking up everything. Can't find a thing on LightRoom 4. I did not have this problem with Lightroom 3.
    Fred: The RAW file that it references is "DNG".
    Soumyadeep: I understand that you are unable to preview cr2 raw images in Lightroom 4, am I correct?
    Fred: No, I can preview it, but when i want to open it the only choice I am given is CS6. I cannot open it into Camera Raw and it actually choses a completely different and inappropriate plug in from NIK Software.
    Soumyadeep: Thank you for confirming.
    Fred: I know I can change that in the "Prefernces" in Lightroom 4 but I can't find Camera Raw to select as the choice.
    Soumyadeep: I will be glad to assist you with this.
    Soumyadeep: May I have the serial number of the product please?
    Fred: I just checked again and it is set to a NIK Software plugin as an external software to open the file.
    Fred: Yes, let me get it for you.

    Fred: OK, how can I easily get the bloody serial number for you?
    Soumyadeep: Fred, I have locate the serial number in your Adobe account.
    Soumyadeep: Once you login to the Adobe account, click on "My products" under the "My products and services".
    Soumyadeep: There you can locate the serial number which you have registered.
    Fred: OK, so you don't need it now. It isn't in a format that I can copy and paste.
    Fred: 116040070815784336099081
    Soumyadeep: Since it was registered in your Adobe account we can get the information from there.
    Soumyadeep: Thank you for the serial number.
    Soumyadeep: Fred, I would like to inform you that all the raw edit options you will get in Lightroom develop module.
    Fred: I hope I copied it correctly it is presented so small.
    Fred: OK, just a second.
    Fred: So, I go to "Develop" it will open in Camera Raw 7.01?
    Fred: Frankly, this is the reason that I have just been using Bridge is because of the seemingly lack of coherent connection between LightRoom 4 and PhotoShop CS6.
    Soumyadeep: I would like to inform you that you will not have any separate camera raw plugins for Lightroom. Since Lightroom will not require a camera raw converter.
    Fred: At least I can open into Camera Raw and make the necessary adjustments and it will load in to PhotoShop.
    Fred: OK, then why when opening a "RAW" image out of LightRoom does it go directly to CS6 bypassing Camera Raw?
    Fred: Not allowing all of the wonderful adjustment toos, particularly the new ones in Camera Raw. I just don't understand the disconnect.
    Soumyadeep: Fred, may I know which product you are referring as  "CS6"?
    Fred: If I had wanted to process all my images in LightRoom I would not have wasted my money on CS6. Does that make sense?
    Fred: PhotoShop CS6
    Fred: Or PhotoShop 6 Extended
    Soumyadeep: Thank you for the information.
    Fred: The question still remains "Why does LightRoom 4 only recongize DNG files and not other RAW file formats and not allow them to be opened into Camera Raw?"
    Fred: I don't want to process my images in LightRoom 4. I want to catalog and sort them. I want to process the RAW files from Canon in Camera Raw and then move on to PhotoShop 6 Extended.
    Fred: So, what you are telling me is that I can't open a RAW file in LightRoom into Camera Raw. Simply stated.
    Soumyadeep: Fred, I can understand your concern. Lightroom will not require a camera raw converter.
    Soumyadeep: May I have the name of the camera model you are referring?
    Fred: Two camera models: EOS 5D Mark II and EOS 60D
    Soumyadeep: Please so that I can check further and try to troubleshoot your issue.
    Soumyadeep: .Thank you for the information.
    Fred: Both are listed as supported by Adobe PhotoShop and Camera Raw. I found that in my research.
    Soumyadeep: Okay.
    Soumyadeep: Please close all the Adobe applications.
    Fred: I simply want to go from LightRoom 4 directly to Camera Raw 7.01 and then onto PhotoShop 6 Extended. Seems pretty straight forward and logical to me. Then again I'm not Adobe.
    Fred: OK, just a moment and I'll do that.
    Soumyadeep: Click on Start.
    Soumyadeep: Fred, may I know what operating system you are using?
    Fred: I am working on Windows 7 64 bit operating system.
    Fred: I have closed all applications from Adobe.
    Soumyadeep: Thank you for the information.
    Soumyadeep: Click on Start.
    Soumyadeep: Just type %Appdata% in the search box and hit the enter key.
    Fred: Ok, Im pretty computer savy so just tell me where you want to go.
    Soumyadeep: Double click on Adobe folder.
    Fred: Done
    Soumyadeep: In that folder you will have a folder CameraRaw. Please rename the folder as CameraRawold.
    Fred: Done
    Soumyadeep: In that folder you will have a folder Adobe Photoshop CS6. Please rename the folder as Adobe Photoshop CS6old
    Soumyadeep: After renaming the images please close the page and try to open a raw file and let me know the exact result.
    Fred: Done
    Fred: Just a moment. I have renamed CameraRawold and Adobe6Old. i am going to navigate to my external drive and click on a RAW File
    Soumyadeep: Okay.
    Soumyadeep: Let me know the status.
    Fred: It is opening PhotoShop 6 Extended.
    Fred: I can change the properties of the file to open in another program if that is where we are going.
    Fred: It also created an error that stated that it recognized graphic software that is not completely supported and PhotoShop is not opening normally.
    Fred: Given a little more time it opened in Camera Raw.
    Soumyadeep: Fred, once more step you need to perform as you got an error regarding graphic software.
    Soumyadeep: Please try to work on the Camera Raw and let me know it is working fine or not.
    Fred: And I lost my presets.
    Fred: OK, where does this leave us?
    Fred: With regards to LightRoom 4?
    Soumyadeep: Fred, you wanted to open the raw images in Camera raw option instead of Photoshop CS6, right?
    Fred: Camera Raw appears to be functiong fine.
    Soumyadeep: Great!
    Soumyadeep: Please close all the Adobe application.
    Soumyadeep: Re launch Photoshop and type CNTRL+ K.
    Soumyadeep: Let me know once you are done.
    Fred: Checking the "CR2" files out of Canon the dafault to open is with PhotoShop 6
    Fred: Ok, let me close all of them.
    Fred: OK, closed sir.
    Soumyadeep: Please navigate to Performance tab.
    Fred: "Performance Tab" in what program?
    Soumyadeep: Re launch Photoshop and type CNTRL+ K
    Soumyadeep: A new window will pop up "Preference"
    Fred: Just a second it is opening. Thanks for help.
    Fred: I am now at the Prefernces box. Performance Tab
    Soumyadeep: You are welcome.
    Soumyadeep: Correct.
    Fred: OK, I'm in Preferences
    Soumyadeep: Please let me know Use Graphics Processor is checked or unchecked.
    Fred: It is checked. I do know that on this machine that the graphics processor is not fully supported due to a lack of a separte video card.
    Soumyadeep: Okay. Please do check once that the graphic drives are updated or not.
    Soumyadeep: Fred, I hope now your are able to open the raw images in camera raw as you were referring?
    Fred: Just a second. Driver software is up to date.
    Fred: Let me open LightRoom 4 and see where it goes. Just a second.
    Soumyadeep: Sure.
    Fred: Lightroom is taking a long time to open now.
    Fred: Now I'm getting the message that it is not responding.
    Fred: OK, it finally opened. Just a second.
    Soumyadeep: Okay.
    Soumyadeep: Please let me know the result.
    Fred: In light room when I select "Edit In PhotoShop 6" it is going directly to Photoshop 6 and not opening Camera Raw. Still.
    Fred: So, my friend. We are still back to the original question and now I have to reload all of my preferences lost due to the change in AppData. LOL!
    Fred: I guess I can organize all I ant in LightRoom and still use Bridge to edit and work on my images.
    Fred: Sorry! Organize all I want and still edit out of Bridge.
    Soumyadeep: Fred, I am sorry to inform you that when you will open the images from Lightroom it will not require the camera raw and also when you will try to open the images in other software from Lightroom it will directly open in that software. Since Lightroom itself works as a Came

    Jim, thank you for an excellent responce.  I truthfully had researched the "Help" section on LightRoom and PhotoShop and found nothing that even remotely resembled your straight forward and easy to follow directions.  After upgrading to CS6 and LightRoom 4 I am delighted with all of the new features that Adobe created in PhotoShop.  I'm not sure that LightRoom 4 was as great an advancement as PhotoShop itself.
    I am certainly going to give your solution a try and see how it works out for me.   I concur that I probably do not fully understand and appreciate the relationship between the two programs.  Today was my attempt of gaining a better insight to that relationship.  Thank you for your response!

  • Problem with Photoshop CS6. If I open a file using Camera RAW

    I have a new problem with Photoshop CS6.  If I open a file using Camera RAW, and process it as usual, CS6 doesn't want to save it the way it used to.  I don't know if I changed something by accident or not. 
    Here's what happens now: After opening from ACR to CS6 and completinhg all of my work, I choose "Save as..."  The save as window opens showing the file name and format.  The default format seems to be .PSD.  I use the drop down to select .jpg.  The file saves normally as a .jpg.  When I go to close the image from, I get a new prompt asking, "Save changes to Adobe Photoshop document DSC_xxxx.NEF before closing?
    I looked up at the file name in the bar above the work space and noticed that it does NOT change from "DSC_xxxx.NEF" to "DSC_xxxx.jpg" after I have saved the file as a .jpg,in my webesite  but it always used to do that.  This adds a few extra steps when closing a document and it really slows me down.
    In fact, I wouldn't swear to this, but I think it used to save to .jpg by default, without me specifying this.
    I don't see a setting in the preferences for what to use as the default file format for saving, so I don't know where to change it back.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance

  • Help for using camera raw in PSE 8/Bridge for Mac for the Canon 7D

    Recently purchasing the Canon 7D, taking a few test photos in Raw, then trying to use Camera Raw in PSE8/Bridge for Mac is a problem.  I cannot figure it out.  Can anyone help this frustrated, novice computer user?

    You need to update the camera raw plug-in for bridge and PSE 8 separately (they use two different copies). In Bridge, just go to Help>Updates which will install, I think, ACR 5.7, which  works with your camera. (You can't update bridge beyond that version).
    For PSE 8, go here, download the latest version and follow the instructions in the readme file.

    Note that the directions may tell you that you can overwrite the old plug-in. That isn't true--you must remove it before putting the new one in there.

    How can I sync photos from iPod touch to my computer without using camera roll?

    How did the photos get on the iPod? If they were synced from another computer you need a third-party program like PhoneView or TouchCopy.
